In my younger days (ugh, the fact I can even write that without irony is depressing), I spent a lot of time hiking and camping.
We didn’t have mobile phones back then, though, so we didn’t really need a power bank. But these days, being able to keep a smartphone (or GPS, or smartwatch) charged while going bush is critical.
But even better than a high-capacity power bank? A rugged high-capacity power bank, that also has an integrated torch.
This is precisely what Laser’s NRGVault 10,000 mAh Outdoor Activity Power Bank is offering. It does a pretty good job, though it has a few design aspects that hold it back from being the perfect product for campers.
