Maybe getting half of the specs still ok...<br /><br />But to my horror.... <!--emo&:shock:--><img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/shocking.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='shocking.gif' /><!--endemo--> <br />- the 30,000mAh power bank only managed to charge around 4,500mAh (of course no solar)<br />- the pendrive real capacity was 256Mb<br />- the micro sd card real capacity was 512Mb<br /><br />This is way too much <!--emo&:furious:--><img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/vmad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='vmad.gif' /><!--endemo--> <br />There was close a thousand innocent purchasers for this product.<br />And now on their website you can see the revised advertisement of the same things, but instead of 30,000mAh they changed to 20,000mAh.<br /><br />Did some googling, Philips never had this kind of power bank.<br />The origin of the power bank was from Guadong, listed as 5,000mAh.<br /><br />So please beware of such scam. crystal_junrong The Museum Of Kopitiam Tue, 30 Jul 2013 00:59:55 +0800
