Best Powerbanks for traveling?

First reccomendation is make sure the capacity, volts, and amps are listed on the battery. Some airports/countries will not let you board with the battery if it's not listed on it.

Second, for me, 10,000mah is the minimum size you should buy. IMO, the best size, between usefulness and bulk.

This is the one I use. Only $9.99. My wife has the blue one. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B014W39VFA/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1488922668&sr=8-2&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=xillie&dpPl=1&dpID=41T88s71YjL&ref=plSrch

Thats a really good PoweBank OP, pretty much any Anker product is top tier. They are light, small, and very durable. If you want something that can charge 6-8 times the one you linked is really good.

I bought https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0194WDVHI/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_ep_dp_SVZVybERCR2FG

for my trip which can charge my Moto G 3-4 times.

Is the capacity and such listed on it? I didn't see it on the pictures

I dont have the one in the picture but on the one I linked the capacity/input/output is listed on the back. It should be the same for all the powerbanks of the same brand though.

I bought this recently. Has USB C output. Wish it had USBC input but that's double the price

I would really suggest anything by Anker, too. But I also got pic related, which is 35,000mAH because it came with all the cords I needed for my Surface Pro 4.

It really depends on what you will be charging and the airport restrictions. I know in Thailand, the max is about 30,000 mAH

Love Anker stuff. Have used their USB power plugs, iPhone cases, and multiple power banks and all have worked well. Everyone on the PCT used them too

I keep one of these in my wallet

and one of these in my pocket

There might be better out there but a charger that fits in the wallet is amazing for "oh shit" moments

Personally I like chargers that have the cable that is built in so I don't carry around wires like

do you mean the one pictured in OP would break after the 8th use?

on an unrelated note my captcha had a picture of a tree and the word wood.

>charger with the cable built in
I will never go back to another portable battery without this feature. FUCK carrying around cables

No charger should break after 8 uses. It means it can charge a phone/ipad or similar devices 6-8 times before the power bank needs to be recharged.
Ive had my Anker charger for a year and it still works as good as new.

I've got a ravpower 26800mah bank and it's started losing charge, i haven't used it much tho, had it about 4 months maybe longer

But I'll charge it up full and a day or two later it's down from 4 lights to 2 or 3

I haven't been using it and it's depleted then I've charged it again and done that a couple times so i reckon that might be making it worse but I'm gonna try draining it completely then recharge it

If not I'll buy one or two new anker ones for my trip to tokyo

You should definitely wait until its almost out of power to charge it again. Also having the battery full for 2-3 months without using it can cause trouble and make it hold less of a charge.

Just not Mophie. Such a waste of money

I have an Anker PowerCore 20000 and it has been great for me, although it's a bit confusing because there seem to be a few different versions now.

There are a ton of companies and from what I have read, Anker is the most reliable, although perhaps other companies are just as good for a lower price.

These things sometimes go on sale, so you can try to wait for a deal if you don't have an immediate need for one.
