Normally when we talk about power banks and portable chargers, we’re thinking about recharging smartphones, tablets and maybe Bluetooth accessories like speakers or headphones. However, the rise of USB-C has made it possible to also charge much larger devices in precisely the same way. Say hello to the Kanex GoPower, a 15,000 mAh portable charger for the new MacBooks.
The GoPower comes with one USB-C port and one full-size USB-A port, allowing you to recharge a vast array of modern laptops, tablets and smartphones. Most importantly, it’s fully compatible with the new 13-inch and 15-inch MacBook Pros that Apple announced a few weeks ago, as well as the 12-inch MacBook that Apple introduced last year. With 15,000mAh of power on tap, you’ll be able to recharge the 12-inch MacBook around three times, and the new MacBook Pro models between two and three times.
Charging speeds are alright too. You won’t be quite as fast as the 61W wall charger, but with a 5V / 3A USB-C connection you’ll be able to charge at 15W. The GoPower will charge the MacBook faster while the machine is off, but charging while it’s on and in use is still possible.
For its capacity, the GoPower is one of the sleekest and lightest batteries on the market. It’ll fit easily into your bag alongside your other accessories. It looks good too, with a curved design and brushed aluminium build that matches the MacBook perfectly.
The Kanex GoPower is the best choice for charging the new MacBooks and other USB-C laptops, tablets and smartphones. It’s available at Mobile Fun right now, so check out more information and place an order!
