What is it?
A well-designed high-capacity power bank.
Good points?
The pillar-shaped design stands out, complemented by a sleek, classic grey matte finish that adds a stylish aesthetic and a premium feel.
In terms of size, the power bank measures 55.1 x 55.1 x 159.9mm (2.17 x 2.17 x 6.29 ins), making it compact enough to carry around in a small backpack.
A Smart 1.54" colour TFT display provides real-time information on the battery's health, power, voltage, and current. This feature is highly practical for users who like to monitor their devices closely and adds a tech-savvy edge to the overall design.
The Cuktech 20 utilises a massive 25,000mAh battery which is capable of comfortably charging a smartphone four times on a single cycle.
The integrated PD3.1 charging protocol ensures it is future-proof and compatible with the latest USB-C charging standards. Additionally, the single-port 140W fast charging and multi-port 210W capacity make it flexible, allowing users to charge multiple devices simultaneously via its two USB-C ports and single USB-A port.
Safety is a priority with the Cuktech 20, as it comes equipped with a set of comprehensive safety protections, including over-temperature, short circuit, overcurrent, and overvoltage protections. These features give peace of mind, especially when dealing with high-capacity devices.
Bad points?
Weighing a little over 0.7 kg (1.54 lbs) means it’s not practical for transport in anything other than a bag.
Best for ...
Those who travel with multiple power-hungry devices that need a substantial battery backup.
Avoid if ...
You prefer to charge your smartphone discreetly in a pocket as this gadget’s profile is not subtle.
Score: 9/10

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
