Somehow this line of charging products are both Ankers and lifesavers. Go figure. (Photo: Amazon)(Photo: Amazon)

Our brave digital world is a wonderful thing, allowing us to stay connected, entertained and updated everywhere we go. One bugaboo, though: living in a constant state of concern that our all-important portable devices may run out of power. If you've ever been brought up short by your phone, tablet or laptop — or, worse yet, found yourself out of juice during an emergency — you know how important it is to have access to a power boost at all times.
That's where the folks at Anker come in. They specialize in on-the-go charging devices and accessories in a variety of formats, colors and price ranges. They are, to put it simply, must-haves, an investment in personal security. And there's never been a better time to make that investment as, today only, Amazon's offering up deep discounts on an array of Anker products.
If you have Amazon Prime, you’ll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $25 or more.)
Here's a sampling of what's on offer....
This item is a particular boon for iPhone 12 and 13 users, as they can simply magnetically snap their phone onto the MagGo and enjoy a wireless charge. But this (literal) powerhouse offers so much more — two USB-C ports, two USB-A ports and three AC outlets that'll keep just about any dang device you have fully juiced at all times. It's the best friend your desktop (or nightstand or kitchen counter) ever had, and now it's 25 percent off.
"This is a wonderful item, well worth the cost!" said one happy customer. "I reduced all my clutter of cords and have everything in one place that I need. High wattage and perfect chic design. Recommended!"
We take lightning cables for granted; having them, and having ones that work. But we don't always have one handy (they have a tendency to go MIA just when you're in a hurry and need one now, don't they?) and they don't always work as they should (not-so-fun fact: over time their sensors degrade or get marred and suddenly you can't sync, or even charge, your device). It's well worth it, then, to keep a couple of extras handy. Here's your chance, as you can now snag a pair for just $15.
"I absolutely love these things, said one true believer. "I don’t carry on about cables usually, but it’s truly amazing how fast they charge everything: the iPad, iPhone and Beats. I have gone through an incredible number of lightning cables. So many fail so quickly. I should have started with Anker."
To cop another famous brand slogan: Don't leave home without one of these. Charge it up, toss it in your bag and never worry about a dying phone again. This baby magnetically attaches to your iPhone so that you'll never have to worry about losing power during an important call or Zoom session. At just .5 inches thick, you can hold it in the palm of your hand and barely know it's there. Want to go hands-free? Prop it up on your desktop or "your" table at your fave cafe with its included kickstand. Available in Dolemite White, Misty Blue and (above) Interstellar Gray.
"This is a GREAT addition to my daily carry needs," said one charged-up user. "I was surprised at how thin this was when it showed up, and the built-in stand is super convenient. It starts to charge right as you attach it and gets my iPhone 12 through those longer days. It’s also great that it has USB-C, which means I can top off my iPad if need be instead."
