Hi im after a dam good power bank. I want something that will keep my phone watch and ally charged. Mainly what i want is in a few months got a long tride 5+ hours. Ive been gaming on my phone tonight to see how fast battery dies and i dont get long on the Ally. Ideally i want something that will do the 30w to allow the allow to game as if it was plugged in, fast charge my phone went needed. Ideally have more than 1 output. I dont want something to pricey ie £100 & over if o i can avoid it. I did look on amazon but its a mine field, it will be going in a bag where i can feed the cables round to me for on the go gaming. Im a sad sod. I have heard of Ugreen and Anker my current. Battery bank is a Juice brick ive had 10 years and it charges but not fast. If ive missed anything i apoologise. I dont really get the numbers on the batteries the whole 20000 10000 ect and why some do 140w ect i think max id need would be 65w ??? I dont know
just buy the biggest you can comfortably carry, I'd imagine you probably want around 100w for Ally top mode and charging, certainly using my Claw in a dock I don't get full power without 100w charger despite it coming with a 65w but that is perhaps because the dock needs power. I use a 140W Ugreen Nexode 25000mAh, it seems decent and is about £50, that is about 90Wh, after conversion loss (converting one voltage to another) probably works out at about 78/80wh in reality so maybe two charges of an Ally. You can get bigger that are still compact like the 60000mAh and more but that is over 100Wh and you need to request special permissions to fly with something that size, if that is a consideration, basically anything under100wh, ~27000mAh, you can travel no problem. Wh is mAh x Voltage / 1000, these things typically use Lithium Ion ternary batteries that are 3.7v. You can of course find games on the handheld that will run at 4-7w for example my AOKZOE 7840U handheld would run Stardew Valley and similar light titles on one charge for ~10hrs on its 65Wh battery If you have net access, you could do similar running AAA games off of Geforce Now.
I'd warn against Anker's version of that thing... hang on, let me pull it up from my order history... This one. Seemed great, but it has some really weird compatibility issues. First, it won't charge my laptop. At all. No idea why, I've other much smaller Anker power banks that charge it fine. The kiss of death, though: I've an Anker portable solar charger thing... and it won't take a charge from that either. Yeah, Anker to Anker. Just brings up a message saying "circuit protection enabled" - even though the solar panel charges other power banks, including my other Anker ones, just fine.
Yup just the ticket, I like the screen on that, would save me plugging in my little tester as I like to know what wattage a device is using as I've experience some similar things that @Gareth Halfacree mentioned with weird compatibility, not charging fast enough etc, in my case resolved with better specced cables.
