Any recommendations for a small, portable USB device charger?
It'd be for multi day trips using a Garmin and maybe the odd phone top-up. Pebbles are only to a max of 3,000 mAh but I think that we might want a bit more juice.
What does anyone else use?
Three pebbles?
I've got an Anker thing, about the size of a portable HDD. Can't fault it.
I've got a few things from Anker - 6-port charging hub and a battery thingie - they seem to be well made and work well.
I picked this pebble up a few weeks ago from the same company for £25 delivered. Looks like they have put the prices up.
They are 8400 Mah

I have a garmin 705 and it took around 10% to charge it to full after a full days ride.
22400mAh bank from EC Technology.

Brilliant bit of kit, multiple phone and tablet charges from a single pack charge.

Oops. Fair enough. Sorry. 😳 It was for the guy who did the review video, not me, so thought it might be ok. I try to support helpful YouTubers like him.
If anyone wants to buy that and make sure he gets credit for it then you can find his referral links in the description of the video in YouTube.
I've been using an Anker one for about 2 years now had a cheaper one before that, but despite being a larger capacity than the Anker didn't charge as many devices before running out of juice.
Just ordered a second Anker for some extended travels over the summer, where one 10000mAh one is just not enough.
Thanks Damascus - have ordered a couple of those 8400 mAh ones from that site - should be delivered tomorrow.
Just need to get Charlie the Bikemonger to tell me when my ti Fargo is going to be delivered...... 😳
