Battle Of The Batteries

Today I'll be talking about two really high capacity batteries, the Zerolemon Solar-Juice Vs The Anker 2nd Gen Astro E6. These batteries both have a massive capacity of around 20,000mAh (the Anker has slightly more), that means that you can charge an iphone 6 around 11 times, and an iPad Air 2 twice! Here are the pros and cons of each external battery.

Zerolemon Solar Juice Charger-


Pros-  
It has a solar panel so that it can charge itself if there is direct sunlight on it.
It can also charge itself through a micro USB port.
It feels sturdy.
It has a flashlight built in (not very powerful)

Cons-
The texture of the plastic feels cheap.
It seems that the zerolemon charger's website has pictures of it with water on
it, but it is not even close to being water-resistant, let alone water-proof.
It is also quite a bit heavier than the Anker.

Anker 2nd Gen Astro E6- 

Pros- 
Very nice expensive feel in hand.
It has three USB 2.0 ports, which apparently detects what phone you have plugged in, making the charge more efficient.
It can be charged through a micro USB port. 
Also has a flashlight built-in.
           
Cons-  
Slightly thinner but it is also longer than the Zerolemon charger.
It is a MASSIVE FINGERPRINT MAGNET.
The plastic around the ports can get scratched easily.
            
Overall, I think these 2 different batteries are for two different environments, The Anker for office/home and the Zerolemon for outdoors. These batteries are both the same price, at $99 on amazon.
