Meet the PowerClip: A Power Bank You'll Always Have at Hand
By Editor • August 20, 2026 • 1 min read
In the world of gadgets, a power bank is often more of a forgotten accessory than a reliable lifeline. The Twelve South PowerClip aims to change that narrative by addressing the issue of accessibility. Designed not just for functionality but for everyday carry, this innovative power bank ensures you won't be scrambling at 1% battery.
Weighing just 45 grams and compact enough to fit in your pocket, the PowerClip can be easily attached to keychains, bag straps, or belt loops thanks to its zinc-alloy carabiner. The idea is to make it so unobtrusive that you forget it's even there until it's needed. Twelve South's marketing encapsulates this philosophy perfectly: the product should be forgotten until it saves the day.
The PowerClip features a built-in USB-C cable, eliminating the hassle of packing cords or adapters. With a capacity of 2,000mAh, it’s designed for quick emergencies rather than as a full-fledged replacement for larger power banks. It can quickly charge your phone enough to make a call or pull up travel details.
Available in five stylish finishes, the PowerClip is more than just a utility; it’s a fashion accessory. Priced at $39.99, it sits comfortably between budget and premium options, focusing on reliability over capacity. In a world where power banks often go unused, the PowerClip is crafted to ensure you have backup power when you truly need it.
