A 2,000 mAh power bank with two integrated USB-C cables, a zinc-alloy carabiner, and bold colourways — emergency charge built for everyday carry
Twelve South today introduces PowerClip, a compact 2,000 mAh power bank designed to go wherever you do. Lightweight enough to clip to your bag, backpack or keys, small enough to forget it’s there, and designed to deliver a meaningful charge the moment your screen reads 1%, PowerClip is emergency power built for the way people actually move through their day.
“Too often, power becomes urgent at exactly the wrong moment,” said Diego Nunez, CEO. “That last one percent has a way of finding you when you need your device most, and it creates unnecessary friction. We set out to remove that stress entirely. PowerClip is designed to be so small and effortless that you simply keep it with you, on your keys, in your pocket, or in your bag, without a second thought. It delivers a fast, reliable boost right when you need it, without the burden of carrying something bulky.”
PowerClip features a built-in attachment ring; the included zinc-alloy carabiner clips securely to a bag strap, belt loop, or backpack zipper, keeping it accessible without taking up space. The carabiner is removable. Both integrated USB-C cables charge your devices; use one or both simultaneously. One USB-C cable also handles recharging, enabling passthrough so PowerClip refills while it’s still powering your device. It recharges fully in under two hours, so it’s always ready to go. LED battery level indicators let you check charge status at a glance so there are no surprises.
Always Ready Power Boost
Most people carry a full-size power bank for emergencies that never come. PowerClip is the opposite; small enough to always be there, powerful enough to matter when it counts. The moment you need power for your phone is rarely the moment you planned. PowerClip is designed to eliminate that feeling — the 1% warning at exactly the wrong time. At 2,000 mAh, it adds roughly 30% back to your phone. Hours of use, not just a quick top-off. It’s not a replacement for a full-size power bank; it is the one you actually have on you when the one at home doesn’t matter.
Lightweight Without Adding Bulk
Most power banks end up in a drawer. PowerClip is designed to be on you; clipped to your gear and ready the moment you’re carrying it out the door. PowerClip works because it’s already there. Its form factor is deliberately minimal, small enough to disappear into your everyday carry without asking for any extra thought.
A Design Object, Not Just a Battery
PowerClip carries the same design brief as the rest of the Twelve South lineup: make something worth owning. The zinc-alloy carabiner has a solidity and finish that reads immediately it doesn’t feel like an accessory. The matte body sits flush against whatever it’s clipped to, weighted just enough to feel considered. Most portable chargers are objects you tolerate. PowerClip is one you choose.
The colourways — Mint, Fuchsia, Teal, alongside Dune and Slate — treat the power bank as a visible part of your kit, not something to tuck away. It is part of Twelve South’s Travel Essentials collection, alongside AirFly and PowerCapsule, designed for people who are mindful of what they carry and want every object on their person to earn its place
