Great Power Bank For The Wilds :)





Got given this power-bank/power-pack recently to try out.

Delighted with it. In fact having been in the woods for the past seven days, bushcraft training, it has kept me and the office nicely on the road :)

This bank can get a re-charge from solar - although I haven't had much chance to test that part of it yet!

Thanks PowerBanks.ie  :)
