Start simple

 

It’s important to power down before powering back up.  For example, if your device is feeling warm, let it acclimatise to indoor temperature. Keep the room cool to recharge faster.  

 

If possible, turn your phone off whilst it’s charging. Turning the screen off is a second-best solution if you just can’t do without your notifications.

 

Tinkering around in your phone’s settings can provide unexpected longevity. Disable dormant apps or select low power whilst you’re still in the green. You’ll thank yourself on the long walk home.

 

 

Get equipped

 

There are so many ways to keep yourself well stocked on phone power. This range of on-the-go charging options will take you from bag to office to gym, guaranteed to keep you going all day.

 

 

Charging Pad

 

Charge your phone without a cable with this forward thinking charging technology, compatible with most QI enabled phones. Pop your phone down on the pad, stick the kettle on and come back when you’re ready to leave. Simple.

Power bank
