Being able to charge mobile devices on the go is a must. But as technology improves, portable batteries are evolving into something a lot more than just an extra battery in your backpack. Nowadays, you can carry around a bona fide portable power hub.

For an example, look no further than the SCOUT Wireless 5,000mAh Portable Charger. The massive battery capacity can be accessed through built-in Lightning, MicroUSB, USB-C amd Qi Wireless connections. Plug in your iPhone and set your AirPods on top, and both will begin charging back up. A flip-out wall socket connection means you can fill the battery back up or charge straight through it. All that makes for a device a charging solution for basically any situation, and good reason to move past your old backup battery.
