Meet the wall charger that's also a power bank

Meet the wall charger that's also a power bank

Some gadgets make me wonder how I managed without them. Take theAnker PowerCore III Fusion 5K. The wall charger meets power bank.

Sounds like an odd idea, right? It's actually a genius idea.

Note: The one I was sent for review is the UK version with the UK/Singapore plug on it, which is bigger and bulkier than the US plug.

Here you have a wall charger with dual 18W USB-C and 12W USB-A ports combined with a 4850mAh power bank in a package that fits comfortably in the palm of your hand (it's 3.15 x 1.18 x 2.81-in and weighs in at 8.6oz).

I love this because it offers me the best of all worlds. I have a wall charger that keeps on working even if my power has gone out (admittedly not a common occurrence, but this has caught me out a couple of times), and I also have a power bank that fully charged and ready to go at a moment's notice.

And I love it that there's no cable to lose (even if the UK plug is bulky compared to the US offering, but that's not Anker's fault).

The PowerCore III Fusion 5K comes with a smart carry pouch and a worry-free 18-month warranty.
