    You should ALWAYS remove packaging before microwaving your electronics. Surely that's just common sense.

    I must have a look in the Carlow Aldi for one.

    I already have a 20,000mAh and a 13,000mAh one!

    How long would this power/charge a tablet? Would be handy to use for long journeys for the tablet and an external little amp I have for headphones since some audio on movies can be too low, especially on planes with the noise.

    use mx player and if audio is low change the audio decoding from software to hard ware or vice versa. should increase your output volume.

    Diceplayer also lets you pre-amplify the sound, works great on my Nexus 7 :) Had the exact problem the OP had.

    I got this when it was €20. It charges my HTC One M7 in 2 to 3 hours about 4 times on a full charge.
    Charging the power bank takes several hours.
    Definately recommend it to anyone. €10 is a steal. €20 is still very good value for a b&m store.

    I don't think they have any left in Drogheda. I wasn't there but my mum was and the only one they had was this 2600mAh one which was also €10.

    Hard luck lads.

    None in any of the Cork stores either, bar the 2600mah version, which wasn't worth buying at all. The staff member who I was speaking to said the bigger capacity ones sold out very quickly.

    I bought an Anker one from amazon instead because I needed one of these. Ye the 2600mAh would be a bit small alright.

    I got the very same spiel in the Carlow Aldi!

    Bigger one sold out but the little one was there.

    I've 2 batteries totally 33,000mAh anyway so I think I'm grand haha ;)

    Ye they are. I bought this one from amazon Anker 2nd Gen Astro3 12000mAh. Got it for 35, a little dearer than the Aldi one but Anker are a good brand and most 12000nAh are more expensive than that.

    It's fine!

    They only negative ye could say is that they take ages to charge.

    Going on holidays in November so it'll definitely be handy!
