Krafted<\/a> has unveiled its latest innovation, the Edge power bank\u2014a thoughtfully engineered device that blends ultra-slim design with a modular battery system, aiming to rethink how we power laptops on the move.<\/p>\n

\"5.<\/p>\n

Designed to sit discreetly beneath your laptop, the Edge measures just 8.5mm at its thinnest point (12.88mm at its thickest), making it a far cry from the bulky \u201cbrick\u201d chargers many users are used to carrying. Despite its slim profile, it packs serious capacity, offering enough power to recharge a laptop up to four times\u2014all while remaining portable enough to slip into a standard sleeve or backpack.<\/p>\n

At the heart of the Edge is a focus on sustainability. Rather than following the typical sealed-unit approach seen in most power banks, Krafted has introduced a modular battery cassette system. This allows users to replace only the internal cells once they degrade over time, extending the lifespan of the device and reducing electronic waste. It\u2019s a clear nod towards more responsible consumer tech design in a category that often leans disposable.<\/p>\n

Built for Power and Portability<\/h3>\n

The Edge doesn\u2019t just prioritise form\u2014it delivers on performance too. Its 20,000mAh capacity, split across four 5,000mAh cells, ensures ample energy for multiple devices. Whether you\u2019re topping up a laptop, smartphone, or tablet, the Edge is built to handle it all.<\/p>\n

With up to 65W USB-C output, it\u2019s capable of properly powering a laptop rather than merely trickle-charging it, making it a viable solution for working on the go. It also supports multi-device charging, thanks to a second USB-C port and two USB-A ports, allowing you to charge several gadgets simultaneously without compromise.<\/p>\n

Recharging the power bank itself is equally efficient, taking around two hours to reach full capacity\u2014impressive given its size and output capabilities.<\/p>\n

Premium Materials, Smart Design<\/h3>\n

Krafted has paired its technical ambitions with premium build quality. The Edge features a robust aluminium alloy 7075 chassis, complemented by a top panel made from OBP-certified ocean plastic, reinforcing its eco-conscious credentials.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s also attention to detail in everyday usability. A built-in braided cable eliminates the need to carry extras, while a magnetic metal connector and plant-based faux-leather tag add a refined touch to the overall design.<\/p>\n

Kickstarter Launch and Pricing<\/h3>\n

The Krafted Edge<\/a> is launching via Kickstarter<\/a>, offering early adopters a chance to secure the device at a discounted rate. Early-backer pricing starts at \u00a3103 ($139), with a planned retail price of \u00a3118 ($159) once the campaign concludes.<\/p>\n

With its blend of portability, performance, and sustainability, the Edge positions itself as a compelling alternative to traditional laptop power solutions\u2014particularly for users looking to reduce clutter and cut down on e-waste without sacrificing capability.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
