Ever wondered if you can bring your trusty power bank on a plane? Good news – you absolutely can, but there's a catch!

To keep everyone safe, these little lifesavers (and their bigger siblings, desktop chargers!) and even our handy trackers need to be in your carry-on baggage ONLY. That's right, no checked bags for these lithium-ion powered pals!

Here's the key

• Carry-On is King: Power banks must go in your hand luggage.
• Check the Wh: Most standard power banks (under 100 Wh) are fine. Larger ones (100-160 Wh) might need airline approval, and anything over 160 Wh is a no-go.
• Protect Those Terminals: Keep them safe from short circuits with a case or by taping them up.

Don't see Wh on your power bank? No problem! Many power banks only show mAh (milliampere-hours). You can easily

We all love the promise of silence that Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) offers. Whether you're on a noisy commute, in a bustling office, or trying to find peace on a long flight, ANC headphones seem like magic. But the burning question is: Does ANC completely block out all noise?.

The short answer is no, not entirely.

While incredible technology, ANC works by using microphones to detect external sounds and then generating an "anti-noise" signal that cancels out those sound waves. It's incredibly effective, but it has its limitations:

• Low-Frequency Sounds are ANC's Superpower: ANC excels at neutralizing continuous, low-frequency sounds. Think airplane engine hums, bus rumbling, or the drone of an air conditioner. This is where you'll notice the most dramatic difference.
• High-Frequency & Irregular Sounds are Tricky: Sharper, higher-pitched noises like sudden speech, crying babies, barking dogs, or
