Swiss Mobility Power Pack 6000

Using all kinds of apps available with smartphones these days, one can quickly find your phone in need of a charge out in the "bundus".

Got myself this Power Pack that is good for 2-3 full charges for my S4 mini.

Potjie & Braai easily

With the PotjieKing its as easy as:
1) Fold down the legs
2) Pack in your fire lighters and briquettes / wood / coal
3) Light your fire
With PotjieKing you always have a portable braai, a safe braai, a fuel efficient braai in 1, 2, 3!

 Have you ever tried to Braai or Potjie on an open fire on a windy day?
The wind constantly blows your heat away as well as blowing ash everywhere!
Now you dont have to fight the elements anymore, with PotjieKing your fire is protected from the wind ensuring that all the heat from your fire goes directly to your Braai meat, Potjie, wok, pots or pans

I test it on a resent camping trip to Groenrivier.
Really work exceptionally well !!!
With only a few briquettes the heat generated was amazing and it kept for more than 2 hours.
