CONCLUSION

 

 

 

 

 

luxa2 p1 prob

   Nine out of ten power banks in the market feature less battery capacity than their advertised one and that's actually really normal especially as time goes by. Now the reason I’m pointing this out at the beginning of the conclusion is because according to our internal tests (we used the P1-PRO with 5 smartphones and 2 tablets) the P1-PRO by LUXA2 (at least our sample) delivered between 4900mAh and 5800mAh whereas most of us didn't expect to see much more than 5800mAh. My guess is that this happened because LUXA2 used two 3500mAh batteries instead of a single one or more than two but in the end the why is of very little importance. Of course as stated earlier the aluminum housing may look great but just adding a rubber/silicone bumper is not really enough to call it an outdoor model. Sure it will protect the battery if you happen to drop it from a few cm but it still leaves the top and bottom completely exposed so dropping it might mean getting a nice bump on the aluminum housing. Still the bumper does cover the USB ports and it can be used to keep your USB charging cables safe so it's quite useful.


   The P1-PRO Outdoor Power Bank may not be the "ultimate" portable battery for outdoor use but for a LUXA2 product it actually comes at a good price point of USD38.24 inside the USA (Amazon.com) and 40Euros inside the EU (Amazon.co.uk). Now it goes without saying that if you want you can find portable battery packs that cost much less and may offer even more battery capacity but aside the fact that LUXA2 is known for its high quality products you are also getting one of their best models at a very reasonable (yet not low) price (solely based on the real output of the unit). Personally i do think that LUXA2 can do so much better than this and i hope they will in the near future but for now the P1-PRO Outdoor Power Bank is a very good choice for people who are not after a really high output portable battery.
