mBeat Gorilla Power

HIGH OUTPUT CHARGING.

FOR THOSE WITH multiple power-hungry devices, the mBeat Gorilla Power can out a mighty 6.8A (34W) across four ports. Two of the connections are able to do 2.4A fast charging for tablets, while the other two ports are the usual 1A. The Gorilla Power comes with four different click-in click-out power adapters, for use in the USA, UK, Europe and back home in Australia. The clip system is reasonable secure and easy to use.

In our testing, the mBeat happily supplied the rated amperage, even with all the ports in use. The longer, but skinny design doesn’t impact nearby plugs (and has a lip for recessed plugs), but won’t fit in very tight spots.

The USB ports themselves are a touch close together, but easily accessible. They are also well built, and plugging in is very smooth. The charger has an idle power draw of under 0.3W, so won’t meaningfully contribute to your bill when not in use. Best of all, the mBeat charger can be bought for under $30 online.
