comes in a neat carry case

Travel pouch to keep everything tidy

Remember how Mum used to tell you not to go wandering off? Well forget that. With the PowerMonkey Extreme on your side you can go anywhere you like and not come back for days!

This handy gadget provides hours of extra power for portable devices. Think of it as a back-up battery that, once charged, holds its power without leakage for up to a year. Simply plug it into your gizmos and let the juice flow. So whether it’s an iPhone, iPad, laptop, PSP, GPS, or MP3 player you'll never be caught out with a dead battery again.

the whole kit

Enough adapters to charge nearly any gadget you have!

Built for all weathers, the clamshell design is waterproof and dustproof. So it’s great for carting into the back end of beyond. And speaking of weather, the Extreme is armed with a Polysilicon solar panel. If you’re running low on power, just leave it out in the sunshine and it’ll top itself back up. And if your yomp in the wilderness happens to end in a nice hotel room? Well there’s an AC adapter or a USB adapter for topping up the battery too. How’s that for useful?

Don't leave home without it

In fact when it comes to essential travelling companions, PowerMonkeys are liable to oust fresh pants and toothpaste because they're always on hand to provide emergency power when you need it most. Take four bulky chargers on holiday? No thanks.

Visitor Reviews...

visitor avatar Will this charge my PSvita? (Obv with the usb cable I got with it) and how long extra would I get on it?
Derek, Glasgow - 9th April 2012
Firebox says: Hi, you sure can, there are no published times for the PS vita, you should get a charge out of it though!
visitor avatar Why would you be solar charging in the rain? Or underwater? I can only begin to imagine how hard the staff at power traveller laughed after your phone call. The unit really is the be all and end all of solar charging.
Jamie, Cambs - 9th March 2012
visitor avatar How much of a lifespan does this have? mine and my dads power monkey explorers were a bit of a dissapointment and stopped working within a year!
Ed, Sussex - 28th February 2012
Firebox says: Hey Ed, it is a slightly subjective matter as it depends on how often the product is used and therefore the battery condition, whether it’s charged and discharged at an optimum level (i.e. fully empty, then fully recharged) etc. But generally they will last around 1000 recharges. If you purchased the Powermonkey Explorers from us, please drop us an email to info@firebox.com with your details and we'll see what we can do to help!
visitor avatar Just wondering if it would work with an LG Cookie as its a very annoying shape which I can never seem to find anywhere. :D Thank You!
Sam, Uk. - 27th October 2011
Firebox says: Hi Sam!, No more searching is needed!, this comes with an LG adapter that will fir the Cookie! Yay!
visitor avatar Will it work with a Nintendo 3DS?
Ralph, London, UK - 14th July 2011
