Everyone with a mobile phone has a huge sense of dread when their phone is suddenly as dead as a door nail. If you are out walking or here in Wales on the beach with no access to an electric socket, you are in a mess or more accurately in full panic mode! But without a power point access this is where ‘pulling power’ wins hands down as this is a portable power bank that can charge manually by pulling its retractable cord. Yes that’s correct, just ninety seconds of pulling power will give the bank enough charge for your phone – via a USB cable – with energy for a 25-minute call. The pull cord mechanism is located at the back of the unit to allow the user to create power using the clever primary generator and a secondary source from the recoil motion. This power bank has sustainability and ‘green’ credentials that no other power charger can claim. So this makes it an ideal emergency power source and will also give you the confidence to be able to use your phone wherever you are.
You’ll find this contemporary, sleek power bank unit is a really invaluable piece of kit that provides you with light, sound, power and a panic alarm, all in a hardwearing carry case that keeps everything in one place and therefore ready to use. If there is a better ‘Must Have Gadget’, I’ve yet to find it!
Along with this ground-breaking technology, the Unibank Power Bank also offers a choice of attachments including an ambient light, Bluetooth® speaker, panic alarm, and laser measuring device – all controlled from an intuitive, feature rich, free app. The app will show in-depth analytics of both the Unibank’s and the smartphone’s batteries, including estimated battery life available under various conditions. The app will utilise as much data as is useful and available from both the Unibank system and the smartphone, then display it in an easy-to understand interface.
The power bank’s ambient light attachment provides bright personal illumination with the ability to pick from the full colour spectrum via the app and will never run out of power.
You can also create sound without having to worry about the wireless speaker’s battery life because with Unibank, this is never a problem, all you have to do is simply pair the compact, lightweight Bluetooth speaker and it is ready to go with the bonus of a powerful bass boost feature on the app.
Another feature I really liked was that you can keep yourself and you’re your loved ones safe as the Unibank power bank has a personal panic alarm attachment. This can be used as a loud, 120 decibel alarm or can be paired with your smartphone to send emergency texts to your contacts. You can also set a personalised SOS message, along with your GPS coordinates. That really will give you peace of mind. Now should you need a measurer this has a combined laser line and distance measurer in the same device. The Unibank app seamlessly sets up the device storing and categorising measurements which can then be sent via email and more.
This clever gadget was created by a British industrial-equipment company and has taken four years to make with the company’s vision of creating an unlimited power source that would service anyone who is off grid, allowing them to stay connected wherever they are. I can well appreciate now why the Unibank received Global acclaim at the International Design Awards winning in the ‘Sustainable Living, Environmental Preservation’ category.
Now apart from treating myself to one, I think this would be an ideal Father’s Day gift as this is far more useful than socks or a bottle of something and it will of course last much longer! Why not get the family to join together to give Dad a useful gift this year, he’ll certainly appreciate it. It is also in my mind an essential for anyone at last getting to visit festivals again, they’ll love it. For students leaving home for the first time will then have no excuse for not ringing their parents or granny! Seriously, dear reader anyone with a mobile phone will find this clever gadget a life-saver and you can say goodbye to a dead mobile when you have Unibank’s clever gizmo, the power bank.
