Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R3CHN0N9UEPFGD This review is on New Trent 12000 mAh black battery pack. This battery pack is a real powerful battery and in my test results it performed extremely well in supplying a charging current to an iPad 2 and two Kindle Fires. It is also designed to allow you to charge two items at the same time. I also tested the battery pack charging and iPad 3 and an iPhone 4 simultaneously. You may need to use your original charging cables for some devices so take them with you if you need them.
It is a great power resource to keep your USB recharged devices operating on those long work or school days or while you are traveling. This battery pack is a powerful source of power and many people like me are power users of their smart phones and tablets and need a battery like this. If you are constantly using your phone or tablet then you know that they will run out of power sometime during the day or evening. If you are not near an AC wall outlet with your charger or in your car with a charger what can you do? It is especially important to have some way to recharge if you are traveling in a plane, in the middle of a school classroom or on a bus or train. In addition many of the newer tablets are real power hungry devices and it takes a lot to recharge them.
Here is a powerful battery pack with two USB ports. It can charge your tablet devices or charge your smart phone and if you want it can do both of them simultaneously. I charged two iPhones at the same time in my testing. One USB output is rated at 5 VDC and 2.1 Amps and the other is rated at 5 VDC and 1 Amp. It uses Lithium-Ion battery technology and carries a 12000 mAh capacity. This is a large sized battery pack and it weighs in weighs in at 11 1/2 ounces. This battery pack will fit easily into a brief case, back pack or a computer bag.
This battery case is very rugged and it is water resistant and dirt proof and shock proof. It is ideal for camping, sporting activities, hiking or just for carry around at school or work. I have included a video of the battery's features for your information and I hope it is helpful for you.
When I test a battery I do an extensive set of tests that fully charges the battery and then I use it to charge devices and make sure that it is fully depleted when my tests are done. I time each test and document the results as the test progresses. I then calculate the mAh of capacity that the battery supplied and I then calculate its charging efficiency. This process takes from 3 hours to, in very large batteries, about a day for testing. I don't take any short cuts or guess and every battery has these tests performed on it and documented. This is to assure that the battery is tested and it performs well. If a battery has performed poorly I then run the tests again to verify the results.
What's in the box?
* The new Trent 12000 mAh battery pack
* The battery pack comes with an instruction manual
* The battery does not come with an AC wall charger. Use the Micro USB charging tip for charging the battery. You can use a computer USB 2.0 port to charge the battery pack but it is 12000 mAh and it will take about 20 + hours. The manual states to use a 1.5 Amps USB wall charger and it will take 8 to 10 hours but I recommend using a 2.1 amp AC wall charger if you have one.
* One charging cable for the battery pack or your smart devices. It is 27 inches long. One end is a standard USB cable and the other end is a micro USB cable. Not only can it charge your batterypak but it can be used to charge your Android and Kindle devices.
This is a very good product and below I have listed its features and benefits as well as my test data for your review. Please take the time to quickly watch the video and if you have any questions send me a comment and I will try to help you.
The New Trent 12000 mAh battery pack features:
* Powerful 12000 mAh capacity specification
* The unit is compact in size and weighs in at 11 1/2 ounces
* The battery is ruggedly packaged in a water resistant and dirt proof and shock proof case. It is very nice and ideal for outdoor use, camping, hiking and other sporting and outdoor activities.
* The side has a push button for starting the charging of your device or to read out the battery's charged capacity using LED lights.
* It has LED lights that show the battery charge. When 1 LED is on it is charged to 0 to 25%, 2 LEDs on means 25 to 50%, 3 LEDs on means 50 to 75% and 4 LEDs on means 75 to 100%.
* There are two USB power output ports. One USB is rated at 5VDC at 1 Amp and the other USB port is rated at 5 VDC and 2.1 Amps. I could charge my iPhone 4 in one port and my iPad 3 in the other port.
* You can charge two items simultaneously.
* Press the ON button when you plug in a device and that begins the charging process of your device. It is recommended that you unplug your device when it is fully charged.
* The battery uses Lithium Ion battery technology. The battery pack can be recharged 500+ times
Test charging an iPad 2 to measure the output capacity:
Start iPad 2 at 4% and the New Trent 12000 mAh battery at 4 LEDs
* 30 min 18% and the New Trent battery at 4 LEDs
* 60 min 31% and the New Trent battery at 4 LEDs
* 90 min 45% and the New Trent battery at 3 LEDs
* 120 min 57% and the New Trent battery at 3 LEDs
* 150 min 69% and the New Trent battery at 3 LEDs
* 180 min 80% and the New Trent battery at 3 LEDs
* 210 min 90% and the New Trent battery at 3 LEDs
* 240 min 96% and the New Trent battery at 3 LEDs
* 270 min 100% and the New Trent battery at 3 LEDs
* 96% x 6944 mAh = 6666.24 mAh capacity used
Test charging Kindle Fires to measure the output capacity
Start First Kindle Fire 37% and the New Trent battery at 3 LEDs
* 30 min 45% and the New Trent battery at 3 LEDs
* 60 min 54% and the New Trent battery at 3 LEDs
* 90 min 62% and the New Trent battery at 3 LEDs
* 120 min 70% and the New Trent battery at 2 LEDs
* 150 min 78% and the New Trent battery at 2 LEDs
* 180 min 85% and the New Trent battery at 2 LEDs
* 210 min 93% and the New Trent battery at 2 LEDs
* 240 min 100% and the New Trent battery at 1 led
* 63%x4400=2772 mAh
Start Second Kindle Fire 61% and the New Trent battery at 1 LED
* 30 min 69% and the New Trent battery was dead.
* 8%x4400=352 mAh
SUMMARY OF RESULTS
6666.24+2272+352=9790.24 mAh output/12000 mAh = 81.585% of rated capacity. This is an excellent result! Not only was it a very powerful battery it charged my devices very quickly.
Here are some of the mAh charging requirements for common devices:
* iPhone 4 battery 1,420 mAh battery capacity
* iPhone 4S battery 1,432 mAh battery capacity
* iPad 2 battery 6,944 mAh battery capacity
* iPad 3 battery 11,560 mAh battery capacity
* Kindle Fire battery 4400 mAh capacity
* Kindle Keyboard battery 1750 mAh capacity
* iPhone 5 is 3.8 VDC at 5.45 Wh = 1434 mAh battery
* iPad 4 battery is 11,486 mAh 3.7 VDC at 42.5 Wh
* iPad Mini battery is 4490 mAh at 3.72 VDC 16.7 Wh
As you can see the New Trent 12000 will fully charge a totally dead iPad 2 but not an iPad 3 or 4 because it contains 12000 mAh of capacity. You still have to consider the losses in the charging circuits of both the battery pack and the device you are charging. Energy is lost during the voltage conversion, used by the electronics of the battery pack and your device and by the generation of heat.
New Trent 12000 mAh battery pack device charging real world experience:
* iPhone 4 or 5 approximately 6.9 full charges out of a fully charged New Trent 12000 mAh Portable Power Bank
* iPad 2 approximately 141% of a full charge
* iPad 3 or 4 approximately 85% of a full charge
* iPad Mini approximately 218% of a full charge
* Kindle Fire approximately 223% of a full charge
* A normal estimated usable storage is 70% of capacity or .70 * 12000 mAh = 8400 mAh charging capacity available for your electronic devices.
* In my testing I was able to use approximately 9790.24 mAh of capacity or roughly 81.585% of the 12000 mAh capacity. This is an outstanding performance for this battery.
This is a great product and deserves a 5 Star rating!
I received a sample product for evaluation and I promised to provide a fair and honest review.

The New Trent PowerPak Xtreme is the Otterbox of all battery packs ...
By D. Fowler
No, this is not a lightweight battery in any manner of speaking. Like the Xtreme sports, this is an Xtreme battery. The first thing that came to mind is that this battery is the OtterBox of all battery packs. It's surprisingly tough and if you don't need anything Xtreme, you just might want to take a pass. If you do need it, you definitely have selected the right battery.
I put it through the "how rugged are you really?" test. I soaked it and then threw it. No, not a little toss, a throw. It bounced like crazy and rolled like something out of a Nascar accident scene. It hit so hard the door to the ports popped open, but fortunately for me it didn't break off. It is both waterproof and water resistant. Beneath the port door are what I am assuming are silicon inserts that seal the ports when the door is closed.
If you are holding the New Trent PowerPak Xtreme in the palm of your hand with the logo to the top right face on the bevel, you will find the power "button" on the lower left side beneath the bevel. The door to the ports is on the center front. The ports are labeled on the port door; the 5V1A is on the right, the 5V2.1V on the left. When you press the button the LED lights go on, but will not remain on. They do not flash, but rather are static.
And so, how did my PowerPak Xtreme work after being doused and thrown? Quite well, thank you. I was some impressed. I usually do my informal testing with my iPad, but added an iPhone 4 to see what it could do. A 12000mAh battery pack does have a lot of power and gave an impressive performance. All in all, I was mega-satisfied with this battery pack. Just when you think battery packs can't get any better ... they do.
New Trent PowerPak Xtreme performance:
I charged both an iPhone 4 and an iPad simultaneously. I didn't charge up the Powerpak, but rather used what charge it came with out of the box. I had four LEDs showing, but that could mean I had anywhere from a 75% to 100% charge.
~ iPhone4 charged fully within 90 minutes. It was
