We tested the Xtorm Fuel Series 3 with Power Delivery, charge your devices in half an hour

One of the manufacturers of accessories for iDevices that we like the most is Xtorm, a company whose accessories are of our admiration for the high quality they have. And it is that on the net we can find an endless number of accessories, many of them at quite cheap prices, that can damage our devices.

Continuing with Xtorm accessories, today we bring you one of the most interesting batteries on the market, the new one Xtorm Fuel Series 3 in its 20.000 and 10.000 mAh models, some batteries with Power Delivery with which to charge your devices in just half an hour ... You do not believe it? After the jump we tell you the details of these new Xtorm Fuel Series 3.

The key to everything: Power Delivery

You have seen it in the image that heads this post, and also in this detail image of the ports of this new Xtorm Fuel Series 3, To get Power Delivery you will need Apple's new USB-C to Lightning cable (It costs € 25 and today only Apple's own is available), and that is the only way to get this Power Delivery.

As this is the most important aspect of these new Xtorm Fuel Series 3 we are going to focus a little more on the Power Delivery. This is the standard by which energy can be supplied to our devices (compatible from iPhone 8) via USB-C from 18w, more than enough power if we take into account that the charger for iPads (the one that would charge our iPhone the fastest) reaches up to 12W.

This is only possible thanks to USB-C, but the results are noticeable ... Personally I was very reluctant to this technology, I did not believe it, but You just have to connect your iPhone to the Xtorm Fuel Series 3 with the USB-C cable to Lightning Apple and yes, you will have the battery charged in just over 30 minutes (depending on the level of maximum capacity of your battery).

And yes also They offer us two USB 3 ports with which to charge our devices as we did so far, that is, we can simultaneously charge two devices via USB 3, and one via the USB-C port which also serves as an input port on the battery.

Two formats to cover all needs

The Xtorm Fuel Series 3 that we have been able to test correspond to the 20.000 mAh and 10.000 mAh versions, two identical batteries whose only difference is its capacity. Obviously the 20.000 mAh offers us twice the number of device charges, but it also grows in weight and dimensions (the one with 20.000 mAh is 22mm thick compared to 14mm for the 10.000 mAh version).

Each one has to choose your battery based on your needs, I think that the 10.000 mAh battery is a very comfortable battery that we can carry even in a coat pocket without realizing it, the 20.000 mAh battery will give us more laziness when it comes to taking it out on the street, although it is obviously the best option if we find ourselves in need of being a long time without a source of energy nearby.

Where to buy Xtorm Fuel Series 3 external batteries?

Yes we want to get hold of any of the Xtorm Fuel Series 3, in the versions (that we have tested) of 20.000 or 10.000 mAh, or in a 5000 mAh pocket version (the latter without Power Delivery), we will have to go to the official Xtorm websiteAt the moment it is the only point of sale from which we can get hold of these batteries with Power Delivery.
