As long as our phobia of being battery-less and disconnected (nicknamed nomophobia, get it?) exists, companies will continue to churn out portable batteries and chargers and come up with new tech to keep our gadgets juiced even while mobile. If you’re looking for something thin enough to slip into your pocket and pretty enough to not be ashamed to display around, then this might not be for you. But if you’re looking for a sturdy, powerful and tough-looking one, then the goBAT™ 6000 Rugged Portable Backup Battery is your guy.
It may not be the daintiest or prettiest of portable batteries, but who needs those when what you have is a 6000 mAh one that can juice up your smartphone up to 3x? And it can also withstand a lot of “torture” as it meets or even exceeds military drop test standards. It has an IP68 waterproof/dustproof rating which means it can survive dunking, driving, dropping, swallowing dirt, and even going under water of up to 3 meters.
It also has a Perfect Charge USB port that can hold up to 12W/2.4A of power. It can auto-detect the fastest charge that it can give to any connected device. It has a multi-colored LED indicator that tells you how much juice is left and how much you still need to charge your smartphone.
It is fully-charged out of the box and comes with a metal alley loop and a carabiner so you can attach it securely to your bags or tents or backpacks. The goBAT™ 6000 Rugged Portable Backup Battery is available at the Scosche website for $69.99.
