The bank, that is a portable battery, is worn by many. This is hardly surprising, since modern users often do not have one or even two electronic devices that require regular recharging. Telephones, tablets, smart watches and other gadgets – everyone needs energy. Who wants to miss an important call or lose access to their data at the most inopportune moment?
What about laptops? Usually manufacturers of portable chargers are ignoring them. But Rombica decided to correct this defect by releasing two capacious batteries – NEO PRO 280 and NEO PRO 180 with a capacity of 28,800 mAh and 18,000 mAh, respectively. They are small in size, but functional. One such battery can charge a laptop, a phone, and a copter. The capacity of the NEO PRO 280 is enough to completely renew the charge of energy in the battery of the same iPhone 6s. And not 2-3 times, but 11.
To the merits of these batteries, their universality can also be attributed:
- Included There are 10 different adapters for different notebook models;
- The user receives 2 cables with MagSafe 1 / MagSafe 2 connectors;
- The devices are small in size, they can be hidden in almost any backpack or bag.
The case of both models is made of aluminum, this immediately attracts attention. There are no seams between the top and side faces, they are only between the lower edge and the rest of the body. In addition to the appearance, the body also acts as a radiator, which removes heat from the battery. Weight of the older model is 830 grams, dimensions – 192h117h21 mm. As for the NEO PRO 180, the battery is slightly smaller, the battery size is 192h85h21 mm and the weight is about 570 grams. The thickness of the case of both devices is only 22 millimeters. The charging time of the older model is 5 hours 45 minutes, the younger one – 3 hours 30 minutes.
The button for the batteries is just one, it is equipped with a blue backlight, which looks quite stylish and harmonious. This button is responsible for performing several functions at once – turning the battery on and off, selecting voltage and monitoring the charge. On one of the sides of the batteries there are three voltage indicators. The available modes of operation are 12, 16 and 19 V.
On the top end of the NEO PRO there are connectors – all on one side. There are two USB ports with a traditional output current of 1 and 2.1 A. There are also two round connectors. The first is needed to connect an external power source. The second is the “outgoing” port, which is used to connect an adapter that connects to laptops. Here the maximum current is about 3.2 A.
In the battery we like the fact that the connectors can not be confused by inserting, for example, a battery charger into the outgoing port. Their design and internal diameter are also different.
If there is no source of electricity around, and a laptop is needed, it is enough to connect one of the batteries NEO PRO – Energy will be supplied for almost any model of portable PC, including MacBook Pro and Air. There is no need to search for a cable, as it was mentioned above, two cables with MagSafe 1 and 2 connectors are supplied immediately.
The advantage of batteries is also the possibility of simultaneously charging three gadgets, including a laptop. In order not to expose the battery to unnecessary tests, it is better to connect gadgets with less load first, gradually increasing it. That is, for example, we connect a phone, a tablet, a laptop. Approximately in this sequence.
It is clear, you need to monitor the voltage at the output of the battery (actual for charging laptops, for USB this parameter is unchanged). To select, press and hold the battery button. As soon as the indicator starts blinking, press the button the appropriate number of times to light the “window” indicator with the desired voltage reading.
LED indicators also show the battery level. If you connect the phone to it, then after fully charging the battery of the device that NEO PRO 280, that the NEO PRO 180 will turn off.
