Finally I can buy a Tesla.

Seriously? 3350 mAh? Come on! Could not Tesla do something better?

As more and more consumers purchase USB-C devices, the need for a USB-C compatible charger becomes the norm. That coupled with the fact that phones are shipping with large capacity batteries, this Tesla charger would be lucky to charge an average phone once before going flat. You couldn't even charge an iPad Pro let alone a standard iPad with this, it's basically useless.

Very disappointing from Tesla, to say the least. It's just releasing a product with a known brand name for the sake of marketing, not actual usefulness. I've received powerbanks like this for free at tech conferences with similar power capacity. If you want a decent portable battery, get an AUKEY 30000mAh or Anker PowerCore+ 20100 which both support USB-C and can charge many devices before needing to be replenished. And, those aforementioned chargers will only cost you a little bit more monetary wise than the Tesla battery which is way overpriced for what it is.

Love you Elon and Tesla, but this is embarassing.

Pros:

It looks nice

Cons:

No USB-C and capacity is low. Does not compete with the standard set by the likes of Anker. Way too expensive.

A Tesla product is expected to be innovative, high-performing and aesthetically pleasing. This checks two of three boxes as there is no real innovation. A huge minus is that it doesn't have a USB Type-C port for the growing list of Android smartphones that sport one.

Pros:

Looks cool!

Cons:

No USB Type-C

Is that upvoted just because it's Tesla? I don't see why this would make it to Product of the day...

This is the first Tesla product I would actually buy. 😊 Not because I wouldn't love to own a Tesla car. I don't need a vehicle in SF.

Actually for that size, 3350 mAh does look like a feat. Most power banks with 18650 sized batteries are under 2000 mAh. Fun fact, around 7000 of these same batteries power the car

A similar product from Anker is only $20: https://www.anker.com/products/v...

Tesla must pay bills, so upvote from me. Will i use it? Nope

"Probably not the best option in the market but it sure looks nice with the Tesla aesthetics. The integrated usb and lightning is great too." That's an opinion, not a description.

Why is the micro USB detachable? It says "integrated USB" so I assume that means you recharge it by plugging it directly into a USB wall adapter? Weird that they didn't show that in the pictures.

This is pretty, but how fast does it do 0-60 mph?

Looks like there is no USB-C :/ Derp!

What more?

Pros:

Design is pretty cool.

Cons:

3350 is way too low for a powerbank.

Snazzy. However, no USB-C and only 3350mAh..

It’s just cool!

Many people have said it and I'll say it again, only 3350 mAh? You can make a family car drive itself, a truck powered by electrity, and a supercar but you can't put more juice in this bad boy?

No shipping to Canada :( Would have been a fun Christmas gift for tech friends.

I've been waiting for Tesla to put out a consumer battery. A little disappointed as soon as I saw it because it just looks like a re-branded gadget. Most portable charger enthusiasts are a bit let down when the cables are integrated. We should have the freedom to use our own cables. a little whack I say. at the very least I'd be expecting Qualcomm quick charge 3.0 as well as USB 3.0 in and out capability. in short: mer. full disclosure I'm in the charger biz (http://buyandroidchargers.com) but am not a manufacturer
