And since the price seems okay, I would rather use a set to be on the safe side.

Before opening the iPhone you should of course make a backupin case something actually goes wrong. To avoid this risk and other eventualities, you can alternatively use a Battery case for the iPhone 6 use. This does not solve the smartphone's capacity problem, but it does counteract the symptoms. In contrast to a power bank, the battery case is always connected to the device, so you don't have to wait for any nasty surprises before counteracting it.

A risk-free and cheaper alternative for offers like the one from ToullGo, however, are battery cases for the iPhone.
