So there’s nothing worse than coming across the most magnificent sight on your ride, taking out your smartphone to take a picture so you can remember that moment forever, and your phone goes black because it has run out of battery. So for those of you who are heading off on a globetrotting adventure that involves some magical nights camping under the starry sky, don’t forget to take a portable battery pack with you!
