Review: Amped Carbon 5.1 portable charger


Recommended Posts

Posted

My wife is in PR and has two or three of these for the dongle, each phone and the iPad. Works wonders. Just have to remember to plug in a thousand things at night!!

 

Price is around R700 depending on specials etc.

Buyer it is the 705.

 

The thing only lasts a few hours and if you are planing on riding 36.1 hours then you need something that will last.

 

I am thinking of shifting back to my polar CS200, as this works the bomb. The only reason I moved to the garmin at the time as the price difference of upgrading the polar to get cadence vs a new garmin was the same price. Silly me did not think about the battery life. Giving up the GPS thingy would not worry me in the least.

can you connect these things direct to your garmin device and continue to use the device while riding ?

Don't know about the 705 but it DOES work on the 1000. 

I am planning for an Everesting so that will work for me.....
