External battery Power Gorilla

---

Hello,

I found this externel rechargable battery:

Ok, it's not cheap but if you use an extra internal battery you have to switch the Shift off/on to change battery so this Power Gorilla has some advantages.

Question however:
I am not a technician but Shifts battery is if i am correct a 2.700 mAh one.
The Power Gorilla seems to be 21.000 mAh.
Does this meen it will extend operatingtime of shift by factor 8 - 9??????

If so, i consider to order one.
Anyone has experiance with this product?

I have a friend who had one together with a Solar Gorilla solar charger for the Power Gorilla. Actually used that stuff down under. Worked great until it got nicked !

Thanks!

Thanks Lucid,

I'll report my findings...

Still no answer to my question however.....

Dear everybody,

Over 50 views of my posting.
Still my question is not answered.

Does this Power Gorilla (21000MhA) make my Shift run 8 or 9 times longer on one charge than the original internal battery(2700MhA)?
Lets say it will run for over 10 hours when using the Power Gorilla?

Thanks in advance.

hello, thanks for your post. The Powergorilla does have a 21,000mAh battery however the 21,000mAh is only available via the 5v USB port, the PG has to up-rate the power from 5v to (for example) 19v - this means there would be around 6,000mAh available @ 19v - or 5,500mAh @ 24v etc

I hope that makes sense. If you do have any other queries please email support@powertraveller.com

shift is 12V

Powering the Shift trough the 5v USB connector possible?

---

Hello,

On the forum i read a while ago that someone tried to power the Shift through te 5v usb port.

He used the assosoiry USB connector for this.

Can someone confirm if this is possible?

See posting above.
This would meen (if i am correct) that you could use the Shift trough a Power Gorilla for a very long time when it is fully loaded......

STOP ! Dont'put any power on that USB port or ya might fry it.
Have you read about the Mugen power packs that come with a new shift battery cover?

I know it said it supports HTC devices but has anyone actually done it yet? I am really excited to get this if it works because its about the same size as the shift and would be awesome!

please say someone knows!

The mini gorilla charger is out now at roughly the size of a large mobile phone...
