Over at Origamiproject.com, Kevin J has been asking for more info about the Q1 powerbank which I didn’t even know existed. Its an external power-pack that costs nearly $250 and weighs over 500gm. Thats a lot of money and a lot of weight. The advantage is that you will probably never have to plug the Q1 directly into the mains supply again! The powerbank plugs into the power input socket on the Q1 and acts like a normal mains supply giving you 9hours of life or allowing you to charge the main Q1 battery. After use, you just re-charge the powerbank on it’s own.
Hamtaro has the powerbank and replied on the forum with a picture and some more info.
You charge the power bank using the charger from the Q1. Then you plug the power bank in the Q1. The Q1 will react as if the charger is plugged in. I really like the power bank, because it gives me a lot of extra power. I also like the fact that I never have to use my Q1 anymore while having it plugged in the wall. I just use the power bank and than I recharge that.
Thanks to Hamtaro for permission to use the photo.
