Low weight and a slim profile for keeping devices charged.
Flextail says:
At a featherweight 3 oz (85g)
We slashed volume by 44% compared to standard power banks—smaller footprint, same reliable 5000mAh capacity. Hold it in your palm and feel the difference: no more bulky bricks dragging down your pack or pocket. Light enough to forget it's there, strong enough to keep you charged.
Our Verdict
At just 84g and 7.1mm thick, the Flextail Zero Power 5K is easy to carry in a hipbelt pocket, running vest or small electronics pouch. Its flat shape avoids the bulk of thicker power banks while still providing 5,000mAh of nominal capacity.
The USB-C port supports 20W input, allowing the power bank to recharge in around two hours. Output is limited to 5V/1.6A, or roughly 8W, so it will charge a modern smartphone more slowly than many larger power banks. That matters less for smaller devices such as a GPS watch, smartwatch, headtorch or satellite communicator. For a phone, it is better suited to charging overnight rather than delivering a rapid boost during a short café stop.
The carbon-fibre shell and reinforced nylon frame provide a reassuring level of protection for such a thin unit. A large button and clear LED indicators also make checking the remaining charge straightforward. It uses the classic four-bar charge indicator rather than showing the remaining power as a precise percentage. It is simple and easy to read, although it gives you less certainty when planning how much power is left for the rest of a trip.
Great for day walks when you might need a little extra juice, as well as overnight camping trips when you don't need to keep all of your electronics topped up.
