COMPATABILITY

The portable charger will give a jolt of juice to most smartphones, tablets, portable gaming devices, MP3 players, cameras, and many other 5-volt chargeable devices. New Trent specifies the iTorch as an external battery pack for Apple, Samsung, HTC, Nokia, Blackberry, LG and Motorola phones. Tablets and other devices supported include Apple, Samsung, Google as well as the Barnes and Noble Nook and Amazon Kindle readers and other 5-volt chargeable devices like portable game consoles, MP3 players, cameras and video recorders. A full list of all the devices and models supported by the iTorch can be found under product description on the New Trent website.

The charging cord provided is a standard micro-to-USB cable. Certain devices or models with different power ports need to be specified as those cables are only provided upon request when ordering.

Also note, the iTorch has 5200mAh and outputs a 5V@1A charge. This certainly was reflected in my experience. However certain devices will recharge at different rates and may drain the battery power of the iTorch faster. The iTorch is suitable to charge 7-inch tablets, but larger New Trent battery packs such as the iCarrier Heavy Duty Dual USB 5B/3A charger should be considered for 10-inch tablet or those devices with higher power demands. PROS Compact, durable, lightweight and enough juice for multiple partial and full charges. The handy laser pointer is a bonus. CONS No AC wall adapter where required. BT
