“As far as power banks goes, the Charge 100 Max is about as good as they get. It's well made and durable enough to take drops and bumps with no problem. All the ports output exactly what they should -- even the wireless charging pad -- and it charges super-fast, going from flat to full in under two hours using a 65W charger.” - ZDNet

“It’s hard to beat this capacity-to-size ratio, which makes it ideal for packing a lot of power while backpacking, commuting, or flying.” - Popular Science
Popular Science alllllmost gave BioLite top-billing for best overall, but decided to give it to another option that had an AC inverter (and guess what, is twice as expensive for the same capacity). Still, they gave a glowing review for the Charge 100 Max and awarded it Best Value thanks to it’s high performance and reasonable price. With most laptops moving to USB-C nowadays, we don’t think you’ll miss the AC and you can save yourself a cool $150. Looking for AC to power more high-powered jobs?

Powerful, fast, packable – and lives up to the performance it promises. That’s Charge 100 Max.
