GAMING FUEL Pokémon Go 12000mAh Portable Charger, Perfect for Pokémon Go, 12000mAh External Battery, 12000mAh Light Weight Safe Charging Power Bank with LED Lights for iPhone, Samsung Galaxy and More

Really love the design of this, however was disappointed with the lack of instructions when I opened the box. There wasn't even a small description of how to know when the charger was fully charged and how to switch it on and off on the company's website. At first this seemed really simple - press the centre (and only) button. This does turn it off, however when pressing it to switch the device off the ball remains lit up. After a combination of pressing/holding/tapping the button the charger eventually switched off. Despite this, I was disappointed to find the charger didn't come with a cable to charge the device from the mains or USB - this may have been my fault for assuming, but I would assume it would come with the equipment necessary to let the charger work. As it only seems to charge via a micro-USB (the USB ports seem to be only for charging devices), I struggled to find a cable at home which could charge the Pokéball (we're an Apple household). A cable to charge your phone/tablet etc isn't included either, like other portable chargers have - however this isn't an issue as most devices come with a cable that disconnects from the plug.The main issues I had with this portable charger was it didn't seem to hold the amount of charge the description states, it just charged my device fully once when unused, let alone 3-4 times. When contacting the company through their social media regarding how to know when the Pokéball had fully charged and the amount of charge it held, I received little help which was disappointing. Also it's worth noting from a practical point of view, the charger isn't the most compact (although this was never expected) and therefore doesn't fit in many bags due to it's 3D shape. The bigger issue with transporting the charger in my bag is it manages to switch itself on easily, whenever anything knocks against the button. This could be easily fixed with a locking mechanism as it does become frustrating after the first few times.Despite these issues I love the look of the charger as it's unique and fitting the current Pokémon Go trend where, due to the battery zapping nature of the game, portable chargers are needed to play for any long period of time. Anyone looking for a charger for this reason, or simply wanting some Pokémon related merchandise - I recommend you get this as it ticks all the boxes you want to feel immersed in this world.

Pokéball Powerbank - 12,000mAhArrived quickly with no charge. Charged via a spare USB due to being a birthday present and didn't want to open the supplied USB - hidden at the top under the plastic (Gaming Feul version).Worked a treat! Charged it half way in about 3 hours which, for the amount of battery, was pretty good.Was a little disappointed with the packaging due to being dusty and scoffed around the edges, but nothing too bad - not enough that would make me return the item anyway.Due to be gifted as a present for my nephew's Birthday and I just know he will love it.It looks the part and works equally as well too. Yet to try for a long period of time so may update depending on performance, but so far so good. Thank you!*Given 4 stars due to writing review upon first impressions and a quick play*

I am happy with Pokemon charger by GamerFuel model as shown in the pictures. But I am a little disappointed with the with the LED light up effect you will see in my pic. I think i may have received a faulty unit in terms of the LED effect as it doesn't match the level of brightness as another reviewers which is much brighter in their pic. But this aside i brought the product as its designed as pokeball and i wanted a more powerful power bank. So in that respect I'm happy and its not enough of a reason to return.

This thing looks fantastic. Like, the real deal. (obviously it doesn't open up and it has ports on the back), but I was really impressed when I unpacked it - it comes in a nice little box, too. It's good looking enough that if I were Pokemon cosplaying I'd carry it around in hand to look the part.Now I've only had it two days so I can't make much comment on it's longevity or anything, but so far it does what I bought it to do - charge my phone when I'm halfway through a university day and I've sapped all my battery playing Pokemon Go going from place to place. It takes a while to charge up but I think that's understandable. Overall I'm really happy with it, looks awesome on a stand.tl;dr : any Pokemon fan should love this as much as I do, it was worth the money!

I think this is a great gift for a Pokemon fanatic, it looks like the real deal and works perfectly well2 small issues, there are no instructions included, it's very straight forward to use anyway just inst I ruins for electrical items I feel is always nice. The other is that the USB and micro USB ports are tight, you can get the leads in but it takes more effort than most connections usually wouldOverall I'd say it's a good product!

Got this from Gaming Fuel, and impressed with the look of it; it looks just like a Poké Ball so it's great to show off to others. Hold a generous amount of power according to the mAh capacity, and the overall physical quality seems to be good, just sounds/feels a bit loose on the inside.

Doesn't really look like the picture, the white button looks more like a camera, which is pretty creepy. Still, it charges quite well but not too happy about that whole camera looking thing. To be honest I don't care, it looks like a pokeball and that's good enough. It has a really good weight to it; feels quite good in the hand and doesn't feel cheaply made. Also when in Use it gets a cool blue glow to it, which is awesome.

I ordered from Gaming Fuel (make sure you get the right seller!) And it was exactly as described and exactly as the photos. Lost a star because it's too easy to switch on by accident in my bag and the lights are very hard to see.
