Excitrus has hit the target for a near-perfect affordable, high-speed, high-storage USB battery pack. With a capacity of just under 75 watt-hours (Wh) or 20,800 milliampere-hours (mAh), you can recharge a tablet, phone, laptop, and Bluetooth devices across three ports. The power pack includes support for USB Power Delivery protocols, allowing up to 100W on one USB-C port and up to 65W on its second USB-C port. Its sole USB Type-A port delivers up to 18W, and can support the Android-centric QC charging standard.
On top of that, the 100W Magnetic Wireless Power Bank tells you in its name about a bonus: a 10W magnetically aligned wireless charging target on its top compatible with Apple's MagSafe-capable iPhones. It even recharges itself at a distinctly speedy 65W over one of its USB-C ports.
The power pack comes wrapped (except for a band around its middle) in a forest-green fabric that reminds me of a comfortable shirt. It's pleasant to hold, and the cloth prevents slipping.
