Juno releases the HUE Pro, a power bank with function and class

We have another power bank review and this time around come courtesy of Juno Power. We have reviewed a number of power banks, both big and small, and the HUE Pro is a little bit different, in that it comes packing a whopping 10000 mAh of juice, a flashy body, and bright LED light. The juice box also includes two USB charging ports for multiple device charging. Now that I have been using this beast for my phone, tablet, PS4 controllers, camera, and more, let's see how it does.Out of the box, I loved the build of the HUE Pro, with its palm sized stature to the metallic design. While it does pack a hefty punch it does not take up much space in my laptop bag. The added light is not the gimmick I was expecting and have seen on similar power bank, but is surprisingly bright by way of its high-powered LED and optic lens. The only issue I encountered in my use with the portable battery back was that the screen that covered the digital display kept lifting from the device, which could have been quite possible from the heat here, but a dab of super glue made sure it now stays put. Juno Power's HUE Pro is a great power bank the offer the same as others out there, it just does it better. The aluminum body matches well with my MacBook Pro and iPhone and can also charge my tablet or camera at the same time, so this bank never leaves my commuter bag. The digital screen, up there with the light, is a feature that helps make sure you always have a charge, displays the remaining percentage of juice to show a more accurate reading over the overused four to five bars/lights. The HUE Pro is available now in four colors for the price of $59.99.

Bracketron made a charge with no wrong way to plug in

Bracketron has sent me their latest mobile accessory and this time around it is not a mobile mount but a single and dual port USB charger for your car. This is no normal USB charger though; the EZCharge has no wrong way to plug in your charging cable as the ports are designed to allow you to plug in both right-side up OR upside down. The EZCharge plugs into the vehicle’s 12V port and the USB ports were designed for smartphones (1.0A) or tablets (2.0A) and built with aluminum housings. 
Since most cars don’t have a USB adapter built in or the problem with the ones that do, only include a single port, so the first accessory most of us need aside from extra charging cable is a 12V charger to charge on road trips or commuting after a day of multi tasking at work. Luckily this charger is idiot proof, as it seems every time I go to plug in my lightning cable for my phone and or charger, it is upside down on my first attempt. Bracketron has introduced a way to minimize the frustration and it was simple, flawless, and yet still stands out over other charger.

This charger was a great surprise that stands out over the other one directional 12V chargers. It is great how simplistic it is, just simply plug into one day of the various 12V ports your vehicle may have and plug in desired cable. The biggest fight that I experienced during use was who gets to charge while driving and Bracketron kept this in mind for this family road trips by adding the additional port for fast multiple device charging. The EZCharge is available now in one or two ports and all black or black with silver, priced from $14.95 to $24.95.
