This llano charger is a game changer! It's super compact, charges both batteries quickly, and doesn't overheat. The build quality is great, too. Been using it for a month now. I love that it saves space in my camera gear bag and just works—no fuss. Totally worth it for anyone needing fast, dependable charging!
Love it, but the door is hard to open.
This Dual Battery Fast Charger with built in power bank by llano is no doubt fast charging!The case is smooth to touch and fingerprint resistant. It charges quickly and efficiently but it's definitely on the larger side so it's not the most portable. It's not fitting into your pants pocket or inside your jacket pocket but would travel well inside a backpack.This multi functional storage case comes with a nice protective drawstring bag along with two batteries that function as they should and probably better than my OEM batteries but my one gripe is that this storage cases digital battery level indicator is far from accurate. This charger has built in safety features and will stop charging when your battery is fully charged; the indicator light will also reflect a full charge but the digital read is far from accurate and pretty much useless.One indicator never reads 100% and even when a battery is in fact fully charged it seems to only want to give out the highest reading of 86% it has yet to give a higher percent reading and if you remove the batteries once they've reached a full charge and immediately put them back in the case without use the indicator reading changes significantly, dropping in percent.But the batteries themselves function well as does the fast charging + it dubs as a larger capacity power bank that has countless uses so overall I'm pleased with these items and find it of great value in more ways than one.
Without the camera batteries installed, this charger/battery pack, weighs 14.7 ounces - a pound - but remember there is a battery in this case that is charged and will charge your camera batteries and/or your phone. It's a very convenient way to take your spare batteries and have enough for whatever you want to photograph that day.It is perhaps too heavy for some, but the weight doesn't bother me at all. If I wanted to take along a spare battery to run my charger, I would still have the weight, and in this circumstance, it's all in one.The case itself is very nicely made. It has a nice feel to it, almost a rubberized feel, but that makes it easy to grip. It is not weather proof in any way and should be kept away from water.The design is such that the case/charger looks like it is itself a camera - the door to the charging compartments feels a little loose, but I think that is by design. The batteries are forced down against a spring, and if things were too tight, there might be breakage.The enclosed battery is 12600mAh, which is plenty to charge your batteries multiple times - I haven't been able to find out how many times yet, because I haven't run out of power in the case.This company makes similar charger cases for many camera models - mine is Fuji, and if you have multiple cameras, you might consider labeling the cases because they are alike and you would need to check the batteries to identify the model, if you didn't have a label.I really like the design and style of this charger/case. It is solidly built and Llano is a company well known for making quality electric/electronic products and accessories. I recommend it.
This is a great charger overall, and it's wonderful if you're looking for a charger that specifically can (very!) quickly charge camera batteries of the matching types. It's also able to (very!) quickly charge any USB devices you plug into it, through the USB-C ports on the side of it, which each function as both input and output. It's got a percentage charge on the front for the device's battery plus 4 bars each for the 2 camera batteries, and it works very quickly to charge your camera batteries and/or your USB devices. It's made of sturdy and smooth-feeling plastic that feels very high-quality, and the little LED screen on the front is bright, well-defined, and easy to read. I can fully recommend this if it suits your needs, specifically for charging camera batteries.This charger does have some downsides, however. Its design does mean that's quite large, even larger than you might think given its intended use for charging camera batteries. Additionally, the little flip-up door on top feels oddly cheap, plus it's difficult to open and takes me a good few seconds every time. And then once you've got the camera batteries in it, you'll probably need to turn it upside-down if you want to get the batteries out because the springs aren't all that much to speak of. Those two issues are why I'm giving it 4 stars because overall it is really great, but they did stand out to me.The USB-C input/output slots can take max 5V 3A and 20W, and they can supply 5V 3A and 15W. This is sufficient for fast charging in all the phone and tablet models I can think of, but it obviously won't be able to power a laptop. Each battery charger (on top) can supply max 8.4V and 1A, individually. This is all very fast, and with a total capacity of the internal battery of 3.6V and 12,400 mAh (~44.64 Wh), it can charge a lot depending on what you're charging.This really is quite large, and it is also quite heavy - matching its size. To put it another way, it's shaped and sized like a full-on camera, and it feels about that heavy. This is a big pro for the aesthetics of it, but it makes it quite a big item if you're looking to pack or travel. I can only picture packing this if you truly needs its unique features, specifically the dedicated camera battery charging.Overall, if you need a camera battery charger, this is a great choice - and if you're dealing with a camera worth as much as you are, you'll be able to justify the price. That said, it still could do with those small improvements I mentioned.I only review things that I personally use myself on a regular and continued basis. I always give my full, honest, unbiased and unfiltered opinion on everything I review. I will not hold back or avoid describing any issues I have with a product. I write exactly what I think about things - the good, the bad, the ugly, and the questionable. And, I will update my review if something breaks, stops working as intended, or otherwise doesn't hold up as expected.
