TSST TB100PA Portable Charger Review

The HTC Desire 820 was the first device we tested, which has a battery capacity of 2600 mAh.

After our 3 tests, initial results were very promising. The 2.4A USB port was faster than the 1.0A port – as expected. However, it was not miles ahead, charging just 10 minutes faster.

However, as the 2.4A port was only 18 minutes slower than a mains AC adapter, we can see the charging speeds – so far – are very impressive. Using the TB100PA instead of an AC adapter would hardly inconvenience you at all.

The next device to test with was the Sony M2 Aqua, which has a battery capacity of 2300 mAh.

Results were similar to the previous test with the Desire 820. The 2.4A port proved the fastest option when using the TB100PA, but it was only 9 minutes faster than the 1.0A port.

The mains charging speed, too, was a mere 8 minutes faster than the TB100PA, which is another indicator of how quick the portable charger really is.

Finally we tested the charger using an iPad Mini 2, which has a battery capacity of 6470 mAh.

Results here were obviously slower, taking 449 minutes to charge – using the 1.0A port. This is a whole 235 minutes slower than a mains AC adapter. The 2.4A port was quite efficient, charging 69 minutes slower than an AC adapter.
