The INIU P81 Mini Power Bank has everything needed to give your Apple products some juice in case something goes wrong. Unlike a traditional mini power bank, this device offers a wireless charger for your Apple Watch. It also comes equipped with a built-in cable and a second USB-C port, allowing you to charge your iPhone or other portable devices and your Apple Watch simultaneously. As a result, you won’t need to carry around multiple accessories to help keep your gear charged. Plus, this versatile little charger fits easily inside your bag, pocket, or carry-on.
A miniature charger that can power up your Apple Watch on the go
What really sets the P81 apart from most other mini power banks is its built-in magnetic wireless charger. It supports up to 5W wireless charging, and an Apple Watch can connect directly to the battery pack. That eliminates the need to look for a cord when you need to charge your Apple Watch on the go. For example, if your Apple Watch is low on battery and you cannot use your standard charger, you can simply remove it from your wrist and place it on the charger included on the back of this power bank. It’ll quickly recharge your watch to 60 percent in just 30 minutes, which is a very good recharge rate for such a small device.
In addition to the built-in Apple Watch charger, this unit features two USB-C ports, with one built-in USB-C cable and one free USB-C port. So, you can recharge your Apple Watch, iPhone, AirPods, and other portable devices via USB-C simultaneously. With fast charging via PD 20W, you can rapidly recharge your iPhone 17 Pro by 37 percent in 30 minutes. Devices that don’t support fast charging can also draw power from the P81, but are limited to a slower charging rate.
Given the P81’s size and output capabilities, the 5000 mAh capacity is impressive. While this battery pack is compact and not designed to completely replace larger travel-sized chargers, it still contains enough energy to fully recharge an Apple Watch around six times or 91 percent of an iPhone’s total capacity. Additionally, because the P81 is so small, it meets TSA regulations for air travel, so you can keep it in your carry-on. For $22 down from $27, the P81 is a great small charger for all your Apple gadgets that require occasional top-ups throughout the day.
