    Purchased this to power a guitar looper pedal to perform wireless. It worked excellent. Just what we were hoping for. Great product.

    I bought 5 and all of them were junk, they would not charge at all. I had to wiggle the cord into the unit and hold it just a certain way for the charging light to go on. Sorry but DONT BUY THEM!!

    I should have believed the reviews It didn't work the first time & there was no plug in cord for the wall so that would have been another cost to buy.

    I can, finally, say with confidence that this device DOES NOT work. I have read the instructions back & forth, I have tried & tried charging it, waiting, charging, waiting.... It’s dead & it’s been dead. Disappointing, to say the least, as I was really looking forward to it. Sure would’ve been nice to receive a working one. Will return

    Works as advertised, this is a BestBuy!

    I bought this unit and the Dynex charger just to compare the two. The PowerPro is by far a much more superior product. I tested it on my HTC one x and had been able to fully charged the phone 3 times before the PowerPro depleted itself. The first charge was when the phone had only 5% left, while the other two charges was when the phone had less then 20%. The charging time speed is virtually identical to a wall plugin charger. So if it takes you 5 hours to fully charge with a wall charger, then it would take you the same with the power pro. This unit itself is very nice looking. Compact enough to fit in your pockets comfortably, while the width is half the size of a touch phone, it is thick as a digital camera. It weighs the same as my old Motorola Atrix 2 phone. This charger also has a built in LED bulb that can be use as a flashlight. The PowerPro is perfect for smart phones without an external battery, or if you plan on being somewhere where power is not immediately available. Since it charges off a USB port, you could pretty much use it to charge anything that takes a USB, like a digital Camera, Mp3 player, Camcorder, etc.

    Good enough for two cell phones

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    It is a great portable battery. It was good enough to fully charge two cell phones: Nexus 5 and Samsung Galaxy S4. It is necessary to fully charge the battery before you use it. It take 5 hours aprox. to fully re-charge this baterry, so make sure you take your time to have this battery ready. It includes the USB-microUSB cable but not the AC adapter to charge it, so you better get one if you buy this portable battery.
