so this video is geared towards the students out there who need to carry
their textbooks around wait what right
textbooks are a thing of the past now um
okay well uh how about the young business people with their fancy mobile
personal computers with you know Lotus Notes and that no no not that either
computers basically fit in your pocket now okay well crap I can't figure out
what all the young kids might need to carry around with them but in case they
do need something this video is about the Tilt energy plus backpack with a
built-in USB power bank so those kids can go all day and all night as long as
they use protection that is we don't need more teen pregnancies which you
know what this is just roll the intro this is going from bad to
worse Corsair gaming RGB keyboards feature Precision Cherry MX RGB key

most obvious Benchmark I could come up with for a Tech backpack was to pack all
my tech crap in it go to Germany for 4 days and then see how it holds up
compared to my trusty Vista bag so off I
went by the way make sure you're subscribed so you don't miss our cherry
and Sennheiser factory tours those are going to be awesome so let's kick off
with a physical rundown on the outside things are looking pretty good the right
shoulder strap has two Cable Management elastics that you can use us to run a
charging cable from the 10,400 mAh
battery inside to your device hand and a loop that personally I'd use to throw a
carabiner on so I could quickly attach and detach things or to hold the IMs
that are connected to the mini dis player that I keep in the sorry what
what's that this joke is old now just like me ouch all right so uh well I
guess you could put something else on it if you want uh the left strap is no less
interesting at the bottom is the condom pocket I showed off before there's
another charging pocket pass through and then there's this tilt logo right here
with a programmable NFC tag under it you can check out our video about these
handy little doodads here if you can't imagine what that might be good for
which leads us to the padding on the back it's thick and breathable but like
the pads on the shoulder straps that seem to be positioned to make as little
contact with the wearer as possible it left me scratching my head a little bit
it and the plastic support it sits on to make room for the handy luggage handle
slot are completely flat something I could have forgiven more easily if the
shoulder straps included a waist or at least a chest strap to Snug the bag up
against my back a little bit better mind you I'm pretty sure that the kids today
wear their backpacks like this anyway so none of this is likely to matter the
handle on top is well padded and reasonably well constructed and looking
around the rest of the outside you'll find six more smallish external Pockets
two of which are nylon lined and have cable passrs to the charger compartment
and the other four of which have other special characteristics this one has a
wonderfully soft liner for your precious cargo this one has a drink holder in it
that I found worked very very well on my trip in spite of my oversized water
bottle this one inexplicably has a waterproof style zipper and finally my
favorite one here maybe that zipper would have made more sense on this one
um has the same super soft liner on a protective removable pocket that took
great care of my home phone and my sunglasses on my trip and when you
remove it you find yet another charger pass through woot which brings us to the
Bigger Pockets where things start to get a little bit less enthusiastic the
laptop pocket has the nice soft liner but fairly minimal padding at the bottom
compared to the last backpack I reviewed here so you should be somewhat careful
plunking your bag down after a long day and maybe I had unrealistic expectations
but I really wanted the battery Bank to be more tightly integrated than just a
standard brick shaped battery Bank in a pocket I mean it's fine press power to
check the charge status uh it's got one two amp port and two 1 amp ports to
charge up to three devices total two low draw and one high draw and they include
three micro USB cables one of which has a 30 pin Apple adapter so you don't even
need to provide all your own cables but I would I'd really like to see a second
generation product work the battery into the lining somewhere or something so I
don't have this random brick pressing against my laptop that also makes it
hard to use that pocket for anything else since we're in this pocket we can
have a look at the cable management straps which work just fine tilt
recommends tying strain prevention knots
in them in case something gets snagged from the outside and I would recommend
the same and other than that well there's not much else to say about them
is there opening up the soft lined tablet pocket right next to this one
gives us an opportunity to look at the cable management holes from both sides
and also a look at the tablet pocket
it's a tablet pocket okay not much to say about that which leads us finally to
the main pocket the one thing about this bag that really frustrated me on my trip
the bag is designed with a hard bottom so that it stands on its own but the
main pocket the only place big enough to really store anything substantial opens
from the front so it's hard to access from a standing position without tipping
over the bag and then you'll need to bend over anyway the internals are well
laid out for what that's worth though with cable management passrs into those
two Side Pockets I showed you a keyloop a variety of coarse and fine mesh
pockets and a little see-through pencil case thing that sits on the bottom to
help you stay organized but I just found it a little bit annoying to use if I
opened it a little I had trouble seeing inside and if I opened it wide the whole
thing fell open and everything could come out so I guess that's the
conclusion who is this bag for well technophiles who don't want to carry
much other than Tech crap in their backpack and I guess it's probably a
pretty big Market of people who will be interested in this bag so even if tilt
would have a hard would have to make something a little bit bigger and more
ergonomic to appeal to me I still think they have a winner on their hands guys
