INTRODUCTION

    Portable power stations might be what most people are currently talking about but due to their size they are far from ideal for people who go hiking, travel via plane or just want extra battery power for their portable devices. This of course is where the classic powerbank comes in and well, with a market oversaturated with such models it may not be the easiest thing to pick the right one for your needs. Sandberg has released quite a few models over the years and once again with me I have one that belongs in their rugged Active lineup, the Survivor Powerbank 27000 PD65W.

    Sandberg A/S is built on a simple belief: Making the channel and users happy today, creates a good tomorrow. Sandberg merges the dedication of a small family business with the power and backup from a 500-staff business group. Sandberg A/S is a financially sound business with annual two-digit growth percentages. We have been in business since 1985. Sandberg fully supports the IT industry channel, delivering only to distributors. Sandberg products are well known and widely spread in Europe, Middle East and a few other areas.

   The Survivor Powerbank 27000 PD65W sports an IP66 certified (dust, water and shock proof) rugged external enclosure inside which Sandberg has placed a rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack with a large 27.000mAh (99.9Wh) capacity and pass-through charging. Just like with previous models the Survivor Powerbank 27000 comes with plenty of features including a LED torch (120 lumen, 15 meter range), two USB-A outputs (5V/3A-9V/2A-12V/1.5A 18W), USB-C PD65W output (5V/9V/12V/15V 3A & 20V/3.25A) and PD60 input (5V/9V/12V/15V 3A & 20V/3A), wireless charger (15W) and 5 status LEDs. Finally, once again Sandberg covers the Survivor Powerbank 27000 PD65W with a rather generous 5-year limited warranty.
