Your phone battery died — what to do now
You are at 2% or already switched off, with no free socket around. Instead of hunting for a shop, take a power bank from the nearest station and keep going — it works even with a black screen.
The first minute
If the phone is still on: enable low power mode, dim the screen, turn off Bluetooth and background refresh. That can stretch 5% by another half hour.
Meanwhile find the nearest Dead Batt station — a cafe, restaurant, mall, hotel, clinic or IKEA store. There are 200+ stations in Israel.
When the phone is fully dead
This is exactly where apps and QR codes fail. At Dead Batt stations you tap a card or digital wallet and the power bank releases without the phone doing anything.
Cables are built into the unit (Lightning, USB-C, Micro-USB) and fast charging starts seconds after you plug in.
Cost and what happens next
15₪ for the first hour with a no more than ₪30 per 24 hours. A 70₪ deposit is held and released once you return the unit.
Return it at any free station in the network — another city or the next day is fine.
Avoiding it next time
Remember two stations on your usual route — your morning cafe and the mall you pass — and a dead battery becomes a one-minute stop.
If a place you visit often has no station, suggest it to the owner: install is free and they earn commission on every rental.
