Veho Pebble (Portable Charging Devices)

Does anyone have any experience of these, or similar (cheaper) alternatives?

I haven't used any of those particular ones but I did get one (I would link to it but honestly I can't remember which particular one it was!) when I went away on holiday and had a 20 hour flight to contend with. It worked very well and exactly as indicated but somewhere on the way back I lost some of the little attachments and didn't use it anymore - but I'd certainly use one again under the same type of circumstances.

If you take a look at the website below (I'm not allowed to post proper links being new!)

I've just bought one of their devices and it seems to work well

Thanks, which one did you get and does it charge a device near enough the quoted amount of times or would you say it is wildly inaccurate?

Looking at the reviews and detils of each, I'd be tempted to pay the extra and go for the Pebble. It seems to have the largest capacity for the price and looks the best. The only thing you need to worry about is it doesn't seem to come with an international plug for charging outside of the UK so if it's for taking on holiday that's something you need to look at when you get it.
