The pocket‑rocket that saved my phone on a 14‑hour sleeper bus 🌻🔋
Two weeks ago I zig‑zagged from Porto to Seville on an overnight coach that promised outlets—and, of course, none of them worked. By hour seven my phone was clinging to 6 % and my playlist was all that kept me from talking to the snorer behind me. Enter a lipstick‑size USB‑C power bank I’d tossed in my sling bag almost as an afterthought. Fifteen minutes later Spotify was blaring again and Google Maps lit the way to my 2 a.m. hostel check‑in. Crisis averted, sleep preserved. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

Why this tiny brick earns a permanent spot in my Sunflower Suitcase kit
Fast juice, zero cables
Just click the built‑in USB‑C plug straight into your Samsung, Pixel, OnePlus—any modern Android—and you’re charging at up to 20 W PD / 18 W QC. No spaghetti of cords thrashing around your tray table.
5000 mAh = emergency gold
Roughly 0.8–1.2 full charges for most phones. On that bus ride my Pixel 7 jumped from 6 % to 58 % in 30 minutes, hit 93 % an hour later, and the bank still had LED life left.
Tiny but tough
Size: 77 × 35 × 25 mm (half a granola bar)
Weight: 92 g (about four tea bags)
Slides into festival shorts, inner‑jacket pocket, or the secret zipper of your Cabin Max.
Refuels fast
Plug it into any 18 W+ wall cube and the bank itself recharges in ≈ 90 minutes—perfect while you grab hostel breakfast.
Planet‑wide compatibility
Supports every major quick‑charge protocol (PD, QC, AFC, FCP, MTK). It even tops up USB‑C earbuds and GoPros on the fly.
Real‑world proof
4 k+ four‑star reviews praise its “grab‑n‑go” design; the few one‑stars mostly involve accidental drops—so treat it like your phone, not a juggling ball.
Field notes & pro tips 🌞
Heat happens. Any 20 W pocket charger will run warm; detach around 80 % if it feels toasty.
Not for iPhone. This CMA version is Android‑only. iOS fam? Grab Charmast’s CMP Lightning model instead.
Stash a USB‑C → A adapter inside the mesh of your backpack for charging older gadgets or your friend’s Kindle.
Festival hack: Clip it upside‑down beneath your phone with a bungee hair tie—keeps the weight off the port during head‑bangs.






Verdict after three weeks on the road
From dawn hikes in Sintra to midnight metros in Seville, this mini brick kept my camera rolling and Maps talking—all while weighing less than a protein bar. If you travel light, live by your phone, and hate cable chaos, consider this your new digital lifeline.
