    Very nicely designed, powerful and the lightning cable worked on my iPhone 5S! This battery pack is beautifully packaged in a white rubberized matte exterior case that provides an excellent griping surface and yet it does not show fingerprints. It is a powerful battery pack rated at 11200 mAh of capacity and capable of charging two devices simultaneously. I put together a video of the unit and the test results for your review.The battery weighs in at 8 1/4 ounces. The battery pack has two USB output ports that output 5 VDC at 1 Amp and the second one outputs 5 VDC at 2.1 Amps. This is ideal to allow you to charge two devices at the same time and one of them can be a tablet that requires 2.1 Amps to charge quickly. This is an ideal size battery for a purse, brief case or a backpack and it packs in a lot of power. I loved the fact that it came with an Apple Lightning connector and even though it was not certified it worked perfectly with our iPhone 5S phones.During the testing the temperature of the battery pack never even exceeded ambient room temperature. To start your device charging you connect it with the proper cable and press the battery pack power button and charging starts. To check the battery pack charge status you have to press the battery power button.This product is good and I rate it at 5 stars. If you are a business person or a student and have to depend on your tablet or smart phone for long periods of time without the ability to get to an AC power source then this is a good battery to own. This is good for those who travel a lot or camp out. Now you can watch your movies or listen to your music on those long airline flights.You should note that I did not operate my tablets or phones while I charged it but the WIFI and phone transmitter were left on. When I test a battery I do an extensive set of tests that fully charges the battery and then I use it to charge devices and make sure that it is fully depleted when my tests are done. I time each test and document the results as the test progresses. I then calculate the mAh of capacity that the battery supplied and I then calculate its charging efficiency. This process takes from 3 hours to, in very large batteries, about a day for testing. I don’t take any short cuts or guess and every battery has these tests performed on it and documented. This is to assure that the battery is tested and it performs well. If a battery has performed poorly I then run the tests again to verify the results.Items in the box:* The Gorilla Gadgets 11200 mAh battery* The battery pack comes with an instruction manual.* A USB charging cable that is 9 inches long. The USB cable has a USB connector on one end and a Micro USB plug on the other so you can plug in the accessory connectors or use it to charge your Micro USB Android devices.* The kit comes with 2 plug connectors that were an Apple 30 pin connector and an Apple Lightning connector. I used their cable and connectors in my testing. My IOS7 iPhone 5S stated that the cable was not Apple Certified but both of our iPhones charged perfectly with the Gorilla Gadgets Lightning connector.* You will have to use the charging cable that comes with many of your own devices.Gorilla Gadgets 11200 mAh External Battery Pack Features:* Powerful 11200 mAh capacity* The unit is compact and weighs in at 8 ¼ ounces.* Attractive design with white rubberized matte exterior that provides an excellent griping surface and yet it does not show fingerprints.* The specifications and ports are nicely labeled on the case.* It has four LED status light located on the top that indicates the battery charge level. You have to press the on button before the LEDs will light up. One LED means 0 to 25%, two LEDs means 26 to 50%, three LEDs means 51 to 75% and four LEDs means 76 to 100%.* There are two USB power output ports and they are USB 1 rated at 5VDC at 2 Amps and USB 2 rated at 5VDC and 1 Amp.* Press the ON button when you plug in a device and that begins the charging process of your device.* The battery pack uses Lithium-Ion battery technology.* The battery pack can be recharged 500+ times* The battery has a dual LED flashlight that you can turn on/off by quickly double pressing the battery’s power on button. This is nice in emergencies, looking for your keys, finding a seat in a dark theater or for use in a hotel room when you travel and you can’t find the light switch.* Warranty is 12 months* The battery pack does not come with an AC wall charger.* Charging it with a USB 2.0 port on your laptop or computer is not recommended by me as the battery would take too long to fully charge. (Approximately 20+ hours with a 500 mAh USB 2.0 Port.)* It will take 10 to 11 hours to charge the battery pack with a 5 VDC USB rated at 1 Amp. It is recommended to use a 1 Amp source but I use a 2.1 Amp source for all of…

    Tested with Galaxy Nexus Phone, Samsung Galaxy and iPad Mini I tested Gorilla Gadgets Uhuru! with with Galaxy Nexus Phone (running ICS 4.3), Samsung Galaxy 7.7 Tablet (running ICS 4.0.4) and iPad Mini.This charger performed well for the 3 devices I used to test it. Uhuru! charged Android devices very fast, and performance with iPad Mini was in the middle of the pack. You can see the results of my tests below.* General features:======================Gorilla Gadgets Uhuru! 8400mAh external battery weighs 6.5 oz. Its size is 3.25″L x 3″ x 0.75″H. The battery pack also includes a flashlight. It is not very bright, but useful in a pinch. The battery auto-shut offs when not in use. The battery has two ports labelled “smart phones” (1 Amp) and “tablet” (2.1 Amp).The package contains the battery and micro USB to USB cable plus two Apple connectors (lightening and iPad). The Apple connectors plug into the micro USB connector. I tested both the lightening connector and compared its performance with the original lightening cable that came with my iPad Mini. They both performed the same (see results below). To charge the Galaxy tab I used my own charging cable.In attached video I show the battery pack next to my tablets for relative size comparison.* Test Results:======================✔ iPad Mini tablet~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Smartphones: ~~ AC ~~~~~~ 1% change in charge in 10 minutes (original lightening connector)Smartphones: ~~ AC ~~~~~~ 1% change in charge in 10 minutes (Gorilla lightening connector)Tablets: ~~~~~~ AC ~~~~~~ 2% change in charge in 10 minutes (original lightening connector)Tablets: ~~~~~~ AC ~~~~~~ 2% change in charge in 10 minutes (Gorilla lightening connector)✔ Samsung Galaxy 7.7 tablet~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Smartphones: ~~ AC ~~~~~~ 2% change in charge in 10 minutesTablets: ~~~~~~ AC ~~~~~~ 5% change in charge in 10 minutes✔ Galaxy Nexus Phone~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Smartphones: ~~ AC ~~~~~~ 5% change in charge in 10 minutesTablets: ~~~~~~ AC ~~~~~~ 4% change in charge in 10 minutes* How I tested this charger:======================I received this power bank from the manufacturer for an honest review be it positive or negative. Top reviewers are often asked to review new battery packs and one of the benefits of being asked to test different power banks is that it gives me an opportunity to compare them to each other using the same charging test, so I can compare them using “apples to apples” comparison. This set of tests allows me to provide unbiased results as the numbers speak for the performance of each unit.My methodology is to charge each mobile device on each port of the unit for 10 minutes and measuring how much each unit was charge in that 10 minute period. Each line in the table below represents a separate 10 minute test.I use Battery App by Elvison to determine how each device recognized the charging source. ‘AC’ status means the charging is at full charging rate. ‘USB’ status indicates charging at a lower charging rate. ‘Discharging’ status means that the charging rate is below the power that the device is consuming so it slows down the discharge rate but does not re-charge.* Warranty:======================The warranty guarantee is prominently featured in the title of the product. I got the information on how to activate the warranty. The “Satisfied Experience” Warranty for any unsatisfied Gorilla Gadgets customer can be activated by sending an email to Gorilla Gadgets at amazon.care@gorillagadgets.com.* Key finding:======================✔ This charger worked for all 3 devices I tested. It was particularly impressive with my Android devices.Ali Julia review
