The SOOT Electropack is the ideal bag for backpackers and dingy hostel dwellers alike, some of whom may never have access to a steady power supply for weeks on end.
The greatest perk of the bag comes in the form of a 10,000 mAh battery, which effectively translates to about a week or two of self-sufficient power for any electronic device that can be connected by a USB cable. The SOOT Electropack, made from premium ballistic nylon and ultra-high grade marine vinyl, comes in three different sizes for different occasions -- the Mini Messenger, the Commuter, and the Carry-On.
The Mini Messenger is a 10-liter pack that is able to connect to two devices -- such as a tablet and a phone -- which the 24-liter Commuter pack can likewise do. When combined, the 34-liter Carry-On can charge up to four devices. The Mini Messenger comes with an integrated protective iPad sleeve, while the Commuter comes with a protective laptop sleeve. For the isolated travelers, these bags will give backpacking a different meaning to staying connected.
