Dipole Power Bank in the shape of a CERN Large Hadron Collider dipole magnet, c2017

Made:
2017

Dipole Power Bank in a novelty power bank in the shape of a CERN Large Hadron Collider dipole magnet, c2017. 4400mAh, 1.5A, 16.28 Wh. With Mini USB port. Object is branded CERN but does not have any manufacturer information. With packaging and mini usb cable.

This object is representative of power banks used for increasingly power hunger mobile electronic devices especially smartphones in the mid/late 2010s. It is also a novelty power bank representing 1% of the energy stored in a real dipole magnet, one of the 1232 real-life 35-tonne and 15-metre dipole magnets used at the iconic Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. LHC bends the paths of the protons moving at 99.999991% of the speed of light along the 27-kilometre LHC ring. The LHC was the subject of the Science Museum Collider exhibition at the Science Museum in 2013-2014 and later touring.
