Power bank recommendations

Post by mdfabbrini »

I’d like to get some updated power bank recommendations. @chumley had some years backed recommend Anker products, which I have been using. But I have a couple of multi-days trips coming up, and would like a compact solution with solar charging without having to unfurl a dozen panels. Does anyone have any experience, for instance, with the Blavor power banks? Or anything else that’s at least semi-rugged, reliable, and easy to charge without looking like a geosynchronous satellite?

@mdfabbrini
I've been using this Tough Tested solar charger for a couple years with good results. Pre-charge at home, and top-off daily with solar. Charges my phone, camera, and other assorted small items just fine. Fairly rugged, too.
