Power banks are an essential tool for many travelers, but many are too bulky to realistically carry with you as you hop on the plane. Not so with the Jackery Mini Power Bank. It provides the perfect way to charge your electronics without the hassle of finding room to store it.

 

This tiny device is shaped like a tube of lipstick and roughly the same size, meaning you can take it with you no matter where your travels take you. Don’t let the compact design fool you, it still packs quite a punch; it holds up to 3,350 mAh of rechargeable battery power to keep you connected at all times.

 

The advanced power lock technology helps keep your equipment safe while the aluminum product case is great for those who have a slippery grip. It also features some lightning fast charging features so your smartphone can go from zero to 100 in no time flat.

 

At only 2.7 ounces, there’s no reason every traveler shouldn’t be carrying one of these in his back pocket. It comes in four different colors to suit your needs and connects to most smartphones, tablets and other electronic devices. It’s available online at Amazon or the Jackery store.
