[Review] Choetech 5200mAh Rechargeable Power Bank & Flashlight - Nexus 6 Accessories

Here is a product review of Choetech Portable Phone Charger and Flashlight : http://www.amazon.com/dp/B01423JIOY. This really is a very handy stuff. It is a powerful power bank because it is 5200mAh so you can charge your phone more than once. It comes with a very useful and powerful flashlight and this is very smart. I went to camping last weekend and this product served multiple purposes and everyone else loved it too! It can also be used as a window breaker which can be used in emergency.
After I received the product I charged it for like 6 hours. I could give my phone full charge almost twice because I use a Nexus 5. It charged my phone quickly than expected, it took like 1:30 hours. It comes with a usb cable to charge with. It has 4 indication lights to show power level so you know when you need to charge your power bank. Also it is waterproof if it is intact with the flashlight head cover.

I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to buy a good portable rechargeable phone charger that also serves multiple purposes!

I also had the opportunity to test out this multipurpose light. It is well crafted and built to last.
I've been able to test it for a month now, and I must say I really come to like it allot. It charges my Nexus 6 from 20% to full just a little over a hour and forty five minutes. It doesn't come with a fast charger but was able to keep my device charged during the day.
It came with a 5in Micro USB cable. But I found it to get pretty hot when I recharged the unit. Just don't know if it was cause of the long charge time or just bad wiring in cable.
The device is really easy to use. Just unscrew the flashlight and you have a single USB port to plug up to. Just plug up your device and go. Just a FYI you aren't able to use the flashlight function while recharging your device. The LED battery indicator is nice and bright so you'll know when to recharge.
Now as you look at the bottom of the unit you'll notice that it has a rubber cap covering a hardened diamond shape metal pin that is used for glass breakage in the invent you are locked in a car and can't get out. I haven't had the chance to test it out, but one day I'll be sure to record it when I do.
The seat belt cutter is a really nice feature also. You never know when you're in a jam and just need something to cut you loose. I highly recommend you keep the Choetech multipurpose flashlight in your center console or glove department. It might just save your life.
I have set a rating for this unit and for me I will give it a 4 out of 5 rating. Mainly cause it doesn't have Qualcomm 2.0 charging and I don't like the fact that I have to remove the flashlight head to recharge my device.

No quick charge = no purchase

Hello all,
Few weeks ago, I've been contacted by a member of the CHOETECH team, asking me if I wanted to test their last flashlight. I accepted so here is my review of the CHOETECH Multip-purpose LED Flashlight.
First I want to talk to you about the packaging. Directly sent from China to France, very simple, very refined box. No name on it, I opened it and find a very reliable and heavy flashlight, it seems very good and trustful.
Packaging
The rest of the box contains the cable to connect it on usb to PC to charge the flashlight and the powerbank.
The user manual with all the instructions and the description of the product.
A card to inform choetech if you're happy or not with their product (well done I must say, it's a way to let the consumer they are there to listen us).
Rest of the packaging
And the rest
Go for the test, I used it on different conditions.
How to:
To enlight the flashlight you have to push the power button for 2 seconds, it power on the light at the first level, if you push it once again, you have the second level, and once again for the third level of light. If you want to have the warning light you have to push the power button twice quite fast.
To stop the light push the power button for two seconds. And to quit the warning light you have to push it twice quite fast too.
Flashlight tests:
First at night, when I go out with my dogs, the light is really clear and powerful, the three level are very useful to see on very far distance. There is no focus ring, but it doesn't annoyed me as the light is quite well focused. I already owned another flashlight to go out with my dog but this one replaced the older one, it's more powerful and I see better the different dog's surprises on the ground lol.
The light is IPX6 so I tried it on rainy night and it still working great, so I assume that the IPX6 is respected, I will not put it into water as IPX6 is not intended to be put entirely under water but for rain it's perfect.
Second test, in my car, to check on the engine, the fact there is no focus ring is a bit annoying but the light enlightened quite well all the engine so it's good for me, I'm not an expert in motor engine.
Third test*was in my house, to check a lost thing for my daughter under the sofa, and it was just great I see all the dust under the sofa and the little character of my daughter.
Last test, my daughter like to play ghost with the light under her face and it's just so funn.
Powerbank tests:
To enable charging, you have to push power button for two second and the phone will charge automatically, I tried to charge my phone (Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge plus) with it and it's fast, not as fast as the original wired fast charger from Samsung but as fast as the wireless fast charger from samsung, I have to precise that I used the cable from the original Samsung fast charger to charge my phone with the powerbank, and not the cable from Choetech, as it's mentionned it's only to charge the powerbank and not the phone.
I don't have any tool to measure the voltage or else, but I have checked time and compare. The Choetech powerbank is on the podium*just beside the wireless fast charger from Samsung.
I could charge my phone nearly twice (I have to precise that I don't go under 20*% of power battery on my phone). So it's very good for my use, and I use it on my car to charge my phone after work if I need.

The windshield braker tests:
I don't want to brake my windshield so I tested it on an empty bottle. Result: Windshield braker won and one bottle died.

The belt cutter tests:
Hopefully I had a rest of nylon belt to test it, The cutter is good, and cut the seat very fastly.

Results of the tests:
I must say that it's a really good multipurpose flashlight, if you need something like this, my advice go for it. I have it on the car just in case, and I still use it when it's night to go out with my dog.
So if you need one go for it right there*: CHOETECH Multip-purpose LED Flashlight
Pros:
Multipurpose
Very good flashlight with different intensity
A good powerbank and quite fast
Good belt cutter
Good windshield braker
Seems reliable
Cons:
No focus ring
Only 5200 mAh but maybe a bigger one is planned
