Among the hottest picks on Philippine leading e-commerce sites is the Veger VP-1048 10000mAh power bank. This 10,000 milliamp-hour battery pack is sleek, ergonomic, and is one of the smallest in the market. Its sturdy housing feels like it can withstand a drop or so. It is affordable too!

The VEGER VP1048 10000mAh pocket power bank has three ports on its top end: two USB-A ports for charging your phone or tablet, and a micro-USB input for charging the pack itself. Just below the port on the left side of the pack is a power button that’s easy to press – it’s placed where your thumb directly touches when you hold the pack with your left hand or your index finger if you hold the pack with your right hand. There is a LED display on the upper front of the pack representing the digital percentage of the battery’s capacity. The brand name is also printed far below it. At the back has the print of specifications including where it’s made.

Performance

In my testing, the Veger VP-1048 10000mAh battery pack had an impressive 90.99-per cent efficiency. The USB ports can accept power from up to an 18W power source, putting recharge time at under 4 hours. I needed to charge my other power bank overnight so the fast charging capability of this pack is adequate.

Another thing that’s impressive about the VEGER VP 1048 is that it doesn’t drain even if you don’t use it for days. I tried letting it sit for 2 days before using it again. It still delivered. I guess it’s because this is a genuine 10,000mAh power bank. Truth be told, the 20,000 mAh (from a different brand) I bought online drains even if I don’t use it, also, can only charge my phone full battery twice. So, I am really impressed with the performance of Veger! It is small but powerful!

Most power banks have a built-in four LED lights indicator, the Veger VP-1048, however, has a digital LED display which is more convenient to look at.

What to love

I absolutely love this power bank! Not only it is much more affordable than other power banks with 10,000 mAh power output  (now sold at LAZADA for only PHP599), IT ALSO HAS AN IPHONE ADAPTER which makes my life a lot easier, MORE SO it lasts for an incredibly long time. I can get four charges out of it for my phone before I have to recharge it. After charging my phone from 12% to 100% it still showed 84, which means it only had 84% charge left.

It feels light too, which is one thing I thought lacking about my other power bank. I like that I can carry VEGER VP1048 around and put it in my jacket or pocket or my small pouch. It feels like I am just carrying another phone.

It doesn’t take a long time to charge too! About 3-4 hours – and it’s worth it once it charges fully because it charges things incredibly fast.

I would definitely recommend this power bank to anyone looking for a power bank to charge their electronics.

Scuba Diving for the first time at Club Punta Fuego in Nasugbu, Batangas

In Uncategorized

The list of water activities to try at Club Punta Fuego is as lengthy as that of any beach resort. Guests here can bask in the sun and enjoy the waters of Nasugbu Bay in four areas of the property namely: Fuego Beach 1, Fuego Beach 2, Long Beach, and the Munting Buhangin Beach at the Terrazas. The clear, cold waters that meet Club Punta Fuego’s beaches are ideal for kayaking, paddleboarding, sailing, jet skiing, riding a banana boat, and other water sports. One that I tried for the first time was scuba diving.

We were told Club Punta Fuego has a stretch of reef directly off its own shore so I anticipated awesome snorkeling or diving but not scuba diving. So when Ms. Joy, the Operations Manager of Club Punta Fuego, mentioned we can go scuba diving, I was ecstatic!

Apparently, an attractive activity here is the Discover Scuba Diving (DSD) priced at PHP 2,500 per person. As the name suggests, Discover Scuba Diving or DSD allows people with no diver certification to learn the basic safety guidelines and skills needed to dive underwater with direct supervision of a dive master. DSD is also an opportunity to swim around and explore the reef with scuba diving gear.

I’ve always wanted to try scuba diving. Had done a fair amount of snorkeling but wanted to swim deeper and explore the underwater world more 🙂 So when Ms. Joy, the operations manager of Club Punta Fuego mentioned we can go scuba diving, I couldn’t contain my happiness! My first diving experience was just in the shallow 20 feet reef of Fuego Beach 1. As first-timer, I felt scared and worried. Nonetheless, I talked myself out of it and told my diving instructor I was curious and excited when asked how I felt. Looking at our videos (taken by @joeljawsandrada), I looked like a kitten lifted by the scruff. But much thanks to my dive instructor who assisted me the whole time, I felt safe, and also didn’t miss a whole bunch of marine life including gorgeous giant clams, colorful corals and fish too! If you want to try scuba diving, you can do it at Club Punta Fuego. Give it two days and you’ll master this awesome marine sport. They also offer open water certification!

From the photos and videos, you can see me not in a scuba diving gear. The dive master actually told me it was fine but I’d recommend you wear proper diving gear because you might feel cold underwater or might scratch your skin during the dive. You can also see, I looked like a kitten lifted by the scruff. That’s because the dive master was guiding me all throughout the dive and thanks to him, I didn’t freak out.

I mentioned earlier that DSD is an opportunity to explore the reefs more. Compared to snorkeling, you can go at much greater depths for longer periods of time without the need to hold your breath. That’s why it’s important to learn and get used to breathing from a scuba regulator. I summarized what I learned from my DSD experience below.

What I learned from Discover Scuba Diving (DSD) Experience

1. The basic scuba gear: mask, snorkel, fins, regulator, buoyancy control device, dive gauges and a tank – and how to move around wearing it;

2. Breathing from the scuba regulator;

3. Hand signals underwater – how to say yes and no;

4. The beautiful creatures found under the shallow 20-feet reef of Club Punta Fuego’s Long Beach;

5. It’s possible to overcome the fear and anxiety related to diving for the first time;

6. Information on why you should try scuba diving as well as how to become a certified diver through the PADI Open Water Diver course.

Do you know that scuba diving promotes happiness?! Also, doing it for one hour easily burns 350 calories!!!

Like any other sport, scuba diving has health benefits. Not only can divers develop and strengthen muscles as the body moves efficiently through the water, the cells are nourished too because of the mineral-rich seawater. As a low-impact sport, it poses lower risk of injury. It’s also proven to relax the mind by keeping divers focused on breathing and the beauty of marine biodiversity. Wicked Diving beautifully puts it, “scuba diving can deliver the wonderful combination of stillness of mind and a physical workout”.

Aside from being a healthy activity, scuba diving is also a fun bonding activity with friends or family or even with a significant other. I recommend you try Scuba diving because there is nothing like it.

If you want to try scuba diving, Club Punta Fuego is definitely a place to launch your underwater pursuits. This exclusive resort in Nasugbu, Batangas offers Discovery Scuba Diving course or DSD well-suited for inexperienced/ beginner divers. Give it two days and you’ll master this awesome marine sport. They also offer open water certification!

Riding the Waves of La Union at Normi2’s Beachfront Resort

It’s always summer in the Philippines with occasional but often unpredictable rains. Normally I can take advantage of the weather by enjoying the heat and trooping to the beach anytime I want. It’s very comforting to hear the sound of the ocean as I rest in a hammock or feel the sand texture as I walk along the seaside. 

And of course, nothing beats a nice refreshing swim on a hot summer day or even a therapeutic bath at early morning freezing water. With all this in mind, I’d say I totally enjoy going to the beach and I love swimming. I have to swim once in a while…

When my friends and I planned a summer getaway last year, we decided to turn up a notch and try surfing. Unfortunately, we couldn’t go to Boracay for everyone had his own out of the country escapade and anticipated higher expenditures.  As a result, we looked for a different getaway that was cost-effective. That’s when we found an online deal from CashCash Pinoy—a 3D/2N accommodation with surfing lessons at Normi2’s Beachfront Resort in San Juan, La Union. Although online deals usually don’t live up to expectation, we tried our luck. After all, we thought nothing could be madly exasperating as long as the group’s complete 

Just a tip, whenever you purchase an online travel deal, make sure to check your hotel accommodation prior to the date of your arrival. Confirm your room reservation not only to the promo agent but more importantly to the hotel itself. There had been a few instances when the coordination between the promoter and the hotel failed and caused great inconvenience on the customer’s part. Don’t let this happen. As much as possible read the terms and conditions of the purchased deal, coordinate both sides, ask all pertinent facts especially the ones that may not be clear to you e.g. shuttle service, additional bedding, food, fees/extra-charges and so on…

I highly recommend going to La Union. Whether you plan to pick up a surfboard for the first time or not, it’s one of the best places to catch some waves. Just remember to wear extra sunscreen unless you want your stay to be daunting rather than relaxing.
