Aukey 20000mAh Portable External Battery Charger

It says it is 80% off original price I doubt that but still £15.99 is a really good price for this power bank.

I had one of these delivered to me from Amazon yesterday. I intended bringing it with me in hand luggage on my travels to replace a smaller capacity powerpack i have.

While it is a great price for the capacity there are a couple of things that I don't like about it.
The size & weight, now I should have known from the measurements on the ad but its a lot heavier than I expected and its big too.
Ye wont be popping it in the pocket or handbag too handily. It wouldn't be the most portable of chargers given its size.

Also the metal part of the 2 USB ports on the charger I received is out of shape and doesn't align properly with the openings. Maybe this is just a fault of the unit I got.

I will be returning the one I received but if someone is looking for a backup charger for the home/car/office then this would be ideal (if the USB ports are OK!).

Pros - capacity, price.
Cons - size & weight - build quality (maybe I was just unlucky with the unit I got).

And it isn´t much of a discount as all others of the same capacity have very similar price tags. In fact, this one here is even cheaper:

I've had a few crappy "noname" ones through time, so I decided to try a well known brand. I'm not saying that Aukey or EPCTEK are bad or anything because they're not well known, feedback shows that especially Aukey is good and camel shows that it's at a very good pricepoint http://uk.camelcamelcamel.com/Aukey-20000mAh-Portable-External-Motorola-PB-N15-Black/product/B00SR5N5HU.

I own this one from Anker, and it gives my oneplus 2 (3300mAh) about 520% overall http://www.amazon.co.uk/Compact-20000mAh-Portable-Anker-PowerCore-20100m Ah-Black/dp/B00VJSGT2A

Aukey would be well know especially State side. I order one but currently use an Anker one also.

I've got this power bank a few months now. Great little device I've had no concerns with it.

Anyone know how these compare to the ones in EuroGiant? Similar price and charge.

I've bought two from the Euro shops and they both stopped working.

In fact, I think the electronics were messed up. I was sure that my phone was charging the fecking powerbank, not the other way around.
