For travelers who have the need to charge both an Android device (cell phone or tablet) AND an Apple product, the portable myCharge HUB series has both Apple Lightning and micro-USB charging cables integrated into its powerbank. Devices can be used and recharged while the hub, itself, is being recharged.

The HubMini, with a 3,000mAh-battery capacity, weighs 2.8 ounces, measures 3.5"x1.4"x0.9" and retails for $69. The HUBPlus, at 6,000mAh, 8 ounces and 4.5"x2.5"x0.9", costs $99. The HUBMax, at 9,000mAh, 10.8 oz. and 4.6"x2.9"x0.9", costs $129. The HUBUltra, at 12,000mAh, 10.8 oz. and 6.5"x3x1.2", costs $149 and can be recharged in as little as four hours.
