If possible, purchase 2 power banks and charge both fully.
Then, when the first goes dead, plug it in to charge and you still have a fully
charged power bank ready to go. Then, just keep alternating the power banks
and you will always have plenty of reserve power.

Not directly. Since it can be left plugged in, it should be fully charged
when needed. However, it would be possible to use an app like Be My Eyes to
ask a sighted person to look through your phone's camera at the power bank
and find out that way.

With the Anker GAN Prime, is there a way to tell how much battery is left in
the power bank?

Hi Michael,
I wouldn't leave your power bank plugged in 24 / 7, it could cause premature
failure being that if it loses just a little bit of charge it's constantly
recharging. I normally check my power bank every so often and I won't
charge it until it needs it, or we need to go somewhere
Hello Margaret. I've really come to appreciate the Anker GAN Prime 733

I leave it plugged in all of the time so I know it'll be full when I need
it. It has folding plug prongs which let you plug it directly into the wall

I am looking for a power bank but I don't know what I should search for.
I want a power bank for my iPhone12, Apple Watch SE and iPhone8.
What should I search for on Amazon, Canada (amazon.ca)?

Hi Sherrie.
I've never heard it called a power bank, but I think all it is is a large
capacity battery that you plug cables into to charge what you want. You can
also charge several things at once. If I'm right, your power bank uses large
USB connectors to charge things.
If I'm right

I do not like carrying around heavy bricks when I do not need to. I

Surprisingly, the USB

when your iPhone is at around 30% or even 20% you can most likely charge most
