Belkin’s new UltraCharge Pro with BoostSolid Cell power banks are powered by advanced semi-solid-state battery technology, delivering a new standard in portable power. Unlike conventional liquid-cell batteries, BoostSolid Cell adds a gel-like layer alongside the liquid electrolyte, enabling a slimmer, more compact design while delivering reliable, long-lasting performance. Engineered to last up to 3x longer than other power banks, UltraCharge Pro with BoostSolid Cell is built to deliver years of dependable everyday use.*

Designed with safety at its core, the advanced battery architecture helps reduce the risk of thermal runaway, fire, and swelling while maintaining stable charging performance across a wide operating temperature range from 0-40°C. Dual analog and digital temperature sensors continuously monitor the battery every 250 milliseconds, automatically interrupting power if operating limits are exceeded. Rigorously tested to withstand demanding real-world conditions and designed to meet UL2056:2025 safety standard requirements and TSA carry-on guidance, UltraCharge Pro with BoostSolid Cell gives consumers greater confidence wherever they charge, from daily commutes to international travel.
