Hey, what's up guys, StephenCultOfMac here, and recently I've covered a lot of interesting
0:06
power banks to charge my smart devices, but there's been no smart power banks to charge
0:11
any of my devices. Well that's where this comes in, this is the OmniCharge
0:16
It's currently on Indiegogo, and the campaign has gone crazy, raising over 800% of it's
0:20
$50,000 goal. Like a lot of power banks, the OmniCharge can charge any of your mobile devices, such
0:26
as your iPhone or iPad, thanks to it's pair of fast charging USB ports
0:30
The OmniCharge comes in two sizes, a standard model with a 13,600 mAh battery, which will
0:36
give you around 6 charges for an iPhone 6s, and a pro model with a 20,400 mAh battery
0:42
which should give you around 10 charges for the same phone. But here's where things get interesting
0:47
Unlike most other power banks on the market, the OmniCharge can also charge bigger devices
0:51
like a Macbook, thanks to the AC-DC power plug built into it's side
0:55
It can provide one full charge for a new 12-inch Macbook, and around 5 hours of charge
0:59
for the 13-inch Macbook Pro. It can charge anything from batteries, to GoPros, and even power external monitors or speakers
1:07
And, the OmniCharge's compact design means it's small enough that I can almost fit it
1:10
into my pocket. Then, there's the smart part of this smart charger
1:14
The OmniCharge recognises what type of devices are connected to it, adjusting it's output
1:19
for the most efficient power delivery, meaning it won't fry the batteries in your delicate iPhone
1:24
This smart charging also means the OmniCharge will preserve the life of your battery's devices
1:27
over time. Starting at $99 on Indiegogo, the OmniCharge has an interesting design, with a rubberised
1:33
texture you'll either love or hate. It's not the most beautiful device out there, but I personally don't mind it, seeing as
1:39
it's capable of charging everything I need when I'm out and about. On the front of the OmniCharge, there's a power button, along with an OLED screen that
1:45
displays charging output, battery capacity, and the charger's temperature. And the screen is bright enough to see in direct sunlight
1:53
While I've been using the OmniCharge, it's become an essential part of my tech bag
1:56
It's reliable, it's never overheated, and it's up to almost any task I throw at it
2:01
I can't think what I'd do without it. And when there's finally a UK version, it'll be even easier for me to use
2:07
If you need a power bank that can charge any device, the OmniCharge will get the job done
2:11
If you're interested in getting one, make sure to pick one up at a discounted price by backing the project now on Indiegogo
2:16
