I'd put Omars on par with Anker or Aukey and maybe even a step ahead just because my own experience with them has been positive and hassle-free.
haha... look at the first review:

I'm just going off of reviews in general and my own experience, The one time I had a problem with a Omars product they were quick to replace it and didn't give me any hassle about shipping crap back. I've had Anker stuff fail on me a few times too. Also, I kind of wonder a bit about someone who can write a detailed positive review, then come back to turn it negative and still leave it at 5 stars? Anyhow, this one still has 4.5/5, so that's good enough for me.

Personally I think the majority a people's lithium devices should be in some sort of metal ashtray or some sort of atr that's not going to torch when you charge your phone. On the other hand, you cant always put your laptop in a safe charging place.
whenever I leave my house, I put my e-bike and custom build electric skateboard in the middle of my garage so I won't burn my house down in the event something goes awry.

I bought 2 of these a year ago and I really like them. They are built solid and provide plenty of power along with including USB C charging which works well. I've had no problems with them.

and looking at that reviewers history of reviews will explain a lot. I've used and reviewed by anker, aukey, ravpower, hootoo, urlhasbeenblocked and similar. they literally buy from 2-3 oem's and its all pretty similar. Anker is the biggest one as they started making their own designs. that being said, my favorite power bank has been an omars product.

I'm no mathematician, but a $9.00 discount on $18.99 is not 50% off.

I couldnt agree more with your comment. I was shocked to find one of the $10 etekcity fans had gone bad on me. I charged it on my couch (have a 7-port charger behind my couch). LUCKILY i checked up on it after 5 mins.

It was TOO HOT TO TOUCH. It comes equipped with an 18650.... thank god the house didnt burn down.

Turns out the circuit board is faulty, not the battery...

So like you, i urge everyone to have a designated area for charging lithium powered items.

Im bringing in a thick metal lockbox (the same they use for power lines). Im gonna find a corner of the house where we dont have to see the ugly thing and use that area to charge battery banks and lithium powered items like the fan...

I dont wanna sound like a crazy person running around crying wolf... but these batteries are pretty dangerous, and should be handled in that manner.

"Slimline, about 1/2", thinner than my phone"

I read that as 1/2" thinner than my phone, and thought, DAMN, that's a phat phone!

Really, this means that the device is about 1/2" thick. How many smartphones are thicker than that!? Maybe those new folding ones?
