Overall Auto Express rating

4.0

You can’t argue with the price – the Emergency Charger is one of the cheapest products on test. This is down to its focused approach, as the unit can only power a mobile phone.

But it still offers six different charging tips and we like the fact the AA battery is included. Compact dimensions and a simple but strong construction mean it is perfect for emergency use.
