I'm heading out in to the world soon. What's the best device for charging phones and other usb devices on the go? Solar power banks?

take a deck of cards with you

>>56601016
Neat. Actually didn't think about that. Thanks.
>>
>>56600993
Probably a high capacity external battery that you can charge occasionally when you're near power, assuming your actually going to be near civilization every other week.
>>
>>56601034
might also want to try >>>/out/ or >>>/tg/ for more electricity-less entertainment ideas

You'd need to have a whopping great big solar panel in order to charge up your gadgets and keep them working for any reasonable amount of time, not to mention a big enough battery to store the charge when the sun goes down.
>>
>>56601132
I've got OP's pic and it gets the job done
>>
>>56601187
Can imagine it would last too long though. Surely your not going to be able to recharge it enough during the day under constant usage before the battery starts to run out.
>>
>>56601221
Why would it be under constant usage? You don't replace your phone's battery with a power bank, you use it to charge your phone when the phone dies.
>>
>>56601187
I can only find the counterfeit version of the product in the OP.
>>
>>56601458
I'd be surprised if that was anything more than the generic one with a brand stamped on, other than the label they're literally identical.
>>
you know what you should do, do what I am doing

make a text file on your desktop, and start listing things that you want or know you will need for everyday life once you leave your parents.
please, do make the distinction between a want and a need.

for example, you'll need an unlocked phone. do you need the latest most epic, phone, such as a galaxy s6, or could you get by with a new unlocked galaxy s3 for $100?

i would seriously recommend doing it, i would post mine but i feel like its too personal, and it will get logged into the botnet and then my door will get bazinga'd
>>
>>56601905
I'm not a paranoid basement dweller living with his parents, though. /out/ and /trv/ are my main boards.

Thanks, though.

>>56600993
>solar panel banks
You'll probably be able to recharge around 8% of your phone's battery each day with this. Don't get chink ones unless you want to buy a bunch of them, disassemble, and rewire them into a large solar panel with a decent non-chink battery.
>>
>>56602081
what would you recommend here?
>>
>>56600993
I saw an iPhone case the other day that had a battery in it and could be wireless charged, which charged the battery and the iPhone. Like $140 though.

OP, you're an idiot to think you'd get sufficiently decent answers by providing so few details about your excursion. Either give more information, or fuck off.

I think a 2000 watt Honda generator, 10k mah power bank, and gasoline should cover most use cases.

>calling it a power bank
>>
>>56603709
yes, that is another correct way of putting it, but as literally every thing else related to phones is listed as milliamp-hours and not amp-hours, there's no reason to reduce it to amp-hours
>>
>>56600993
I was looking into a 15,000mAh solar charger as well, for a phone.

Some say it will fully charge phones and tablets while others say it will only top them off.

I doubt you can find a Made in the USA one, even high priced one, so I guess I have to try it out.

>>56600993
anker makes one and their products are usually pretty top of the line, but it is fucking huge, idk what size you're looking for

https://www.anker.com/products/A2422011
>>
>>56603819
you don't spend 8 hours a day in the sun dude so that's a waste of fucking money for you

get a 15Ah battery pack and just charge it at home
>>
>>56603978
Some said they put it next to their window and it charges.

NEET life as well.
>>
Solar charger + power bank

>>
>>56604675
if you're indoors with a fucking window you also have a power socket and can charge it from a USB port
>>
>>56604838
Why bother if you can just fucking set it down to charge? I've had my solar charging power bank for over a year and haven't plugged it in to charge once.
>>
>>56604886
wat, i didn't really get that?


also, can any of you guys recommend me something like this if I am going to be in a country with shitty infrastructure? I am not OP by the way, but I will soon be spending a considerate amount of time in a 3rd world country.
It isn't fucking africa or anything of course, but if by chance I find myself in the countryside I want to be able to charge my phone, as well as a small USB flashlight
>>
>>56605041
>wat, i didn't really get that?
Could you try making sense?
>>
>>56605063
>try making sense

but that is how I felt about your post right now, I didn't understand it

the guy says, why charge it via the solar panel if you're a NEET indoors all day?

ah fuck, I get it now. You meant just setting it down on a windowsill or anywhere to use the panel?

fugg, please disregard, but I digress

any of you african fellows know of one of these that is decent?
>>
>>56605164
You're retarded. All I was saying is why bother plugging in a power bank when you don't need to, as it has solar panels.
>>
>>56605192

Second this. Bulky but they're very high quality. More bulk=More charges possible.

>>56605857
>I need a powerbank that gives me multiple days of phone life

you will never need that much juice if you live in a first world nation
>>
>>56605910
Blatantly false.
>>
>>56605910
Motherfuckers might be going camping for a week. You never know. And a good backup can benefit more than just a phone. Think of all the shit you can run off a USB port.
>>
>>56605910
Have you never lost power for two days?
