Going away for a couple of days and sadly have to stay connected and using my laptop but won’t have access to power.

Need to be able to charge phone a couple of times, my Garmin once and my laptop (surface pro)

Am a cheapskate too...

Something Anker, normally.

20-30,000mAh or somesuch.

Anker.... that's it.

They fast charge also.

I think mine is about 15,000 and we've not flattened it. My son took two to Le Mans and recharged them via solar. Kept 3 Smart phones running for 5 days.

I use Anker powerpacks. From Amazon. For my Surface and other stuff (incl Samsung Fast charging). Great support when I had an issue (no quibble replacement arrived next day).

Cant fault them for the money. I'd get another that fits the requirememts.

Anker set the standard that everyone else tries to aspire to.

Anker really do have the power bank game sewn up, good build quality, good prices and good customer support. They clearly didn't get the "choose two" memo.

I've got three packs of varying sizes, the oldest being 5 years old and still going strong.

Thanks all - looks like it’s going to Anker then...

I like PortaPow also, but yeah, you can't go wrong with Anker. They must have doubled their profits back when Ingress was popular.
