Are Power Banks The Solution to the Uncharged Mobile Ban?

In UK airports last week new measures were introduced dictating that passengers whose electronic devices were not sufficiently charged to be switched on, could face losing their gadget or not being allowed to fly. The move to tighten safety regulations is of course for our own benefit, but it might seem, much like lost baggage and long queues, like a bit of an inconvenience. After all, nobody wants to have their phone confiscated at the start of their holiday, or, even worse, to miss their trip altogether.

But the new rule needn't be a nuisance. There is an easy way of preventing any missed flights or phones left behind in airports, and it comes in the form of the simple power bank. You charge up this gadget at home, and it allows you to charge your phone or tablet without a socket, anywhere in the world. So by keeping it on you when you go to the airport, you can make absolutely sure that an un-charged phone will never be an issue. This up-and-coming device could be the answer to a lot of passenger's problems, and here's how different types of businesses could benefit from the handy gadget too. The power bank will help...
