There’s no shortage of portable battery packs that you can use to keep your smartphone and other gadgets running when the battery is dead or near-death. But few of them are quite as cheap as the Inland 2,600 mAh power banks that Micro Center is selling for $3 today.
Sure, these batteries probably don’t have enough juice to take a modern smartphone from 0 to 100 percent. But they could come in handy in an emergency or they could be useful if you’re someone who gets almost all-day battery life without using a power bank.
