There’s really no excuse for running out of juice. And although that sentence rhymes, we’ll resist the temptation to write this limerick styley because the Pebble Portable Charger is no joke. Indeed, this emergency juicer-upper is a serious bit of kit for anyone who owns an iPhone/iPod, Flip, Muvi Atom or any other USB-friendly gizmo. And that means you!

Despite its pocket-snuggling dimensions, the rubbery Pebble houses a meaty 5000mA battery. Impressed? You should be because the iPhone 3G’s battery is 1200mA, which means the itty bitty Pebble holds sufficient oomph to charge it four times over! In fact when it comes to power storage this smart oojamiflip beats similarly priced chargers hands down.

USB powered, this soon-to-be essential travelling companion even features a nifty charge indicator so you can see how much juice you’re packing. Take it to festivals, on Jack Bauer-style days out, or simply pop it in your pocket wherever you may roam. Juicy, real juicy!

Included connectors: iPhone/iPod, Sony Ericsson, Mini USB, Nokia and Micro USB

The Pebble Portable charger does actually charge the Apple iPad; it's just a little slow and unintuitive.

Its diminutive size and capacious battery capacity makes it an ideal charger for travelling.

The Pebble will power up any gadgets that use USB, making this perfect for mini-breaks or those pesky plug-free festivals.

Looks like a great product, but I can get it for £25 elsewhere (yes, reputable companies). Normally I try and buy off you because I like the company, but I can't pay £15 more!
Max, Midlands - 9th December 2011

Hi, I want to know will it have the power to charge my Sony ericsson X10, It says it has the write adapter but will it have the power, on the battery it says 1500mAh and 5. 4Wh and 3. 6V. If it does I will sure be buying one :D.
Nathan Keogh, Walsall - 4th October 2011

Firebox says: Hi Nathan, we've spoken to the suppliers and they've old us the following: "It's impossible to guarantee compatibility with specific models however I can confirm that there is the correct adapter with our Pebble XT and I am confident that due to the high power output it should be compatible." Hope that helps!

What is the mah output of this?
Max, England - 28th September 2011

Firebox says: It has a 5000mah output, enough to charge an iphone 4 times over!

I have a Blackberry Torch and it doesn't seem to charge. Why is this?
Andrew, Otley - 28th July 2011

Firebox says: The microUSB plug should work fine Andrew, if not, drop us an email to info@firebox.com with your order number and we'll look into it.

Will this work with my iPhone power charger if I plug the USB into it? The the only downsize is that it doesn't come with an adapter plug in case I need to re-charge the Pebble on the go and don't have a free USB port?
Rachel, Devon - 22nd July 2011

Firebox says: The easiest way around this is to pick up a USB-Mains adaptor Rachel (included in the accesories tab) otherwise, it's only charged via USB devices.

Is it work for iPhone 4?
Ali, West Midlands - 9th July 2011

Firebox says: Sure does Ali.

Hi - I have four electronic gadgets can you let me know if it works with the following ... KINDLE/ DS LITE/ SANSA CLIP+ (mini usb) and OLYMPUS DIG CAMERA (usb 2. 0). Thanks.
James, London - 6th July 2011

Firebox says: Hi James, the connections include: iPod/iPhone, Nokia, Sony Ericsson and Mini and Micro USB, hope that helps.

Can I use it to charge Dell Streak ?
Mark Sutton, Barry, Vale Of Glamorgan - 28th June 2011

Firebox says: It's hard to know, as this product was made before the Dell Streak. We suspect it can charge it, but we aren't certain if it could charge it to 100% capacity.

Will this juice up my Galaxy Beam and Tab?
No053, United Kingdom - 20th June 2011

Firebox says: As long as it fits with one of the listed adapters; iPhone/iPod, Sony Ericsson, Mini USB, Nokia and Micro USB.

Why won't this work with HTC Wildfire? It charges via mini USB? Confused.... And I want one if it does work!
Steve Barker, Norwich - 1st June 2011

Firebox says: This certainly should do Steve, via the microUSB plug.
