Sydney based consumer electronics brand, Chargeasap, known for its successful crowdfunding campaigns including Infinity UNO and X-Connect cables, has announced that its latest innovation, Flash, a 20,000mAh powerbank, is now on Indiegogo.

It claims to be the world’s most powerful, most versatile and fastest charging powerbank, and the pledges start at $139/£107 for early bird or $149/£115 thereafter (Full RRP $299/£230). The 60 day campaign will run until 27th March with shipping expected to start April 2020.

The Flash powerbank is able to charge up to four devices simultaneously with a total of 150W output charging. With super-fast charging, it supports Apple Fast Charge with a full charge in 60 mins (20,000mAh) or 80% (16,000mAh) in 25 minutes, according to the company, this makes it ten times faster than traditional powerbanks.

It has enough power to charge an iPhone 11 four times in just 25 minutes. Key to the appeal of the Flash, it can support and charge a variety of everyday gadget essentials making it versatile. It is able to charge devices including 100W Power Delivery 3.0 devices (such as MacBook Pro 16”) as well as smartphones and even an Apple Watch (2.5W).

Supporting Apple Fast Charge, Huawei Supercharge, Oppo Flash Charge, Vivo Flash Charge, 10W Wireless Fast Charge and Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0, it is compatible with most brands and devices unique fast charge technologies.

According to the company, Chargeasap is able to achieve the world’s fastest charging powerbank through incorporating Tesla’s graphene composite battery technology. Using four 21700 Tesla Lithium Polymer Graphene Composite Battery Cells manufactured by Panasonic, they have 20% higher energy density than its predecessor. 

The company claims that the Graphene technology also makes it the world’s safest powerbank by allowing it to fast charge at low temperatures compared to standard batteries. Flash will never go above 50°C (122°F) unlike competitor powerbanks which can reach 75°C (167°F) ensuring it is safer and also longer lasting.

With a battery life cycle up to four times longer than standard batteries, users can rest assured that they are getting a high quality and durable device. Even after five years of daily use, the Flash’s battery will still perform well and it offers a two year warranty.

Flash has a 100W USB-C Power Delivery Port as well as two specially designed USB-A ports to support all major brands’ fast charge technology including Apple, Samsung, Huawei, Oppo and Vivo. This means that it can power a large laptop, midsized laptop or the iPad Pro.

The fourth wireless output, features two coils (10W Fast Charge and 2.5W). The addition of this wireless pad and the 2.5W allows it to charge an Apple Watch making it a suitable accessory for any Apple Watch user to avoid having to take multiple chargers and enable the use of just a single one to power all devices.

Pass through charging is also featured on both of the USB-A ports on the Flash and 10W wireless pad to allow for charging of up to three devices whilst also charging Flash itself. It is also compatible with all USB devices including GoPro’s, headphones, Nintendo Switches, speakers and more.

Thanks to the 20,000mAh battery capacity, there are also no concerns when travelling. With some airlines, such as Air Asia, now specifying that the maximum international airline safe capacity is 20,000mAh (reduced from 27,000mAh), Flash can be taken on any travels without any worries that it may be confiscated at customs. Flash offers its multi charging and fast charging capabilities and weighing only 470g it is suitable for travel.
