GoPong GPPBF8 Power Bank
INTRODUCTION
At USD 12.99, the GoPong Power Bank Flask (8 oz) is an ingeniously disguised travel flask that looks like a portable charger but isn’t actually functional. Crafted from food-grade materials, it can store up to 8 ounces (about five shots) of drink, making it a discrete option for transporting alcoholic beverages to sporting events, concerts, beaches, or cruises. The flask has a bottle pour nozzle for convenient filling, a mess-free funnel, and a fake power cable. It may be stored safely in suitcases and luggage because to its airtight screw-on cover, which stops leaks and aromas. This novelty flask, which is lightweight at 0.4 lb (≈181 g) and has realistic details, offers privacy, portability, and cost savings—removing expensive venue drinks—while still encouraging adherence to local alcohol laws.
