Whether you're out on the road for days at a time or camping out in nature, you don't want to be without your phone in the case of an emergency. If you want to stay connected while you're off-grid, one simple way to stay prepared is by investing in a good, reliable, budget-friendly power bank to keep your devices juiced up. If you're heading out into the great outdoors or taking a road trip, Walmart is offering a great deal on the $100 Mugo MN01 Portable Charger, which can be yours for just $15.
A reviewer called it "thin and lightweight," saying "it's extremely slender and sleek, but with a substantial lifespan. So convenient — not bulky or cumbersome like other power banks."

This tiny, 88-gram portable charger boasts a 5,000-milliamp-hour capacity and 20-watt fast charging, but it's all centered around a single USB-C port. So it's ideal for straightforward tasks like charging your compatible iPhone, Samsung, Google Pixel, or other USB-C device. If you find that your phone tends to die and needs recharging just once per day trip or weekend getaway, this would be an ideal, low-cost solution for making sure you get a second full charge out of your phone or other must-have device.
It's got a handy LED display that shows your current battery level, so you can be sure that you're not unplugging your phone from the charger prematurely, and it comes with lifetime technical support and a three-year warranty, so it's a very risk-free investment. It comes with one USB-C cable and a user manual.
"Initially, I bought this to ensure that my phone remained charged during hurricanes," said one shopper. "I currently have two of them, and I bought another for my grandmother. I keep one at home and take one with me on my yacht. I use it to recharge my phones and speakers, and it gets subjected to saltwater damage. But it continues to function, and has been operational for one and a half years. I store it in a waterproof bag in the center console throughout the year."
Heading out onto the road or going hiking in the foreseeable future? Keep your phone and other devices charged when you save $85 on the Mugo Portable Charger at Walmart.
