Emergency Power On-The-Go: Why Having A Portable Power Bank Is A Travel Essential

Power banks can be hit-or-miss regarding the reliability of having a portable power source on the go. You can have a light power bank but only store enough electric juice for a round of charging for your smartphone. You can also have a bulky power bank that takes up so much space in your carry-on, which you later struggle to carry for the most part in your travel escapade.

So is there really a suitable choice out there, especially for people who are always on the go? There is!

UGREEN's Nexode Power Bank series is the perfect addition for your travel needs–and even just for a typical on-the-go commute or excursion. These nifty gadget series are all powered with 100W+ output, which can not only meet the fast charging needs but also provide emergency power supply for laptops during business trips. With its innovative column design, the product has a better grip and can easily fit in carry-on luggage.

Imagine being on a long flight and your laptop is about to die, or you're on a road trip and your phone is running out of battery – all these can be powered with UGREEN's power capabilities, which can meet fast charging needs and provide an emergency power supply for gadgets while mobile.
