Assalamualaikum and Hi everyone.
I just bought power bank for my smart phone. I realized that I need to charge it for a very long period and some times it takes a whole day to be fully charged. I wonder, where the problem comes from? Maybe from the power bank itself or USB cable? I am not really know.
Therefore, I just searching and googling about the power bank and accidently met with this SUPER AWESOME power bank and it is called Zap & Go portable charger.
Maybe not much people in Malaysia know about this portable charger. The Zap & Go charger is fully made of graphene supercapasitors. It is very useful when our smartphone or tablet runs of battery and need source of battery immediately.
How It Works??
- Plug-in the Zap & Go portable charger
- Wait until 5 minutes
- Un-plug the Zap & Go portable charger when hear a BUZZ sound. Meaning that, the Zap & Go is already fully charged
- Connect it to the smartphone/tablet that run of battery
How this Thing Happen??
The Zap & Go charger use supercapasitors instead of battery or normal capasitor. You can see the differences between three of them by below table:-

"Supercapasitors have been used for years in industrial applications, but they are large and heavy because they incorporate two coils of aluminium foils inside separated by an insulating or dielectric layer. We have replaced these foils with graphene foils. Graphene is much thinner than aluminium allowing us to increase the thickness of the dielectric layer. This means we can increase the voltage output above the standard 2.7V, making our graphene supercapasitors much more efficient in consumer electronic applications"

The technology in Zap & Go charger makes it possible to fully charges only within 5 minutes. Amazing right?
