HP Powerup Backpack Details
Here’s what the HP Powerup Backpack consists of. Hidden inside the backpack is a humongous 22,400 mAh battery. This battery can be used to charge up to three devices at the same time. You can charge your laptop, tablet, and smartphone at the same time.
According to HP, you can charge your smartphone up to 10 times, tablet up to 3 times, and the laptop one, all simultaneously. If you simply want to charge your smartphone, say an iPhone 6s, you can do that about 13 times.
The backpack can fit a 17.3 inch laptop and because it’s from HP, it only supports HP laptops. However, you can purchase adapters that’ll support your laptop as well, probably not a MacBook though. The kit also includes 2 microUSB cables, a laptop cable, and two laptop power adapters.
How is this a smart backpack, you ask? Well, there’s a temperature sensor inside that turns off the battery when it gets too hot. The backpack also lets you configure which device gets the highest priority for charging. It also comes with a raincoat, meets in-flight security requirements and is said to be very durable.
