The $83.95 battery avoids the bloat of modern power banks, focusing instead on pure energy density. During testing, the unit successfully recharged an iPhone 15 Pro twice with reserve capacity remaining. Its 22.5W output is sufficient to top up a 14-inch MacBook Pro, and the inclusion of pass-through charging allows users to power gadgets while the bank itself is plugged in.
Nitecore NB10000 Gen 4: The New Benchmark for Ultralight Power
At a mere 146 grams, Nitecore’s latest 10,000mAh power bank, the Gen 4, manages to shave critical weight off the company’s previous ultralight champion. Designed for endurance athletes and backpackers, the device packs 39Wh of energy into a chassis that measures just 1.45 x 11.6 x 4.68 centimeters.
While the device excels in portability, it is not without minor quirks. The knock-to-wake feature proves inconsistent, and the integrated RGB lighting feels unnecessary for a tool built for minimalist utility. Despite an $84 price tag that puts it at the premium end of the market, the Gen 4 remains the most compact solution for those prioritizing every gram in their pack.
