Hi.

I'll throw another power bank to consider. It's a lot more expensive, but for 
what it does, it's great. Check out

They make a battery that works quite well. I have two of these, the Yeti 200X 
and the Yeti 1000X. The numbers refer to the wattage these give. The 200X has 
an AC plug on it, two USB A, 2 USB c, and a 12 volt plug, which is a lighter 
adaptor. It has a display on it, and weighs six pounds. I put it in a back pack 
to power my 5G hot spot. The 1000X has the same plugs on it, with the addition 
of a second AC outlet. As I said, these ain't cheap, the 200X costing about 
$300, and the 1000X costing about $1,400. The 1000X is pretty large, but I got 
it for a long lasting backup to power my internet, computer, and smart 
speakers. If you want portability, what I'm mentioning isn't the best solution, 
but it works for me.

Just throwing something out there. Oh yeah, the 1000X can have another battery 
added to it to give even longer lasting backup. I might do that at a later 
time, but I think this adds $400 to the cost. These batteries also can have 
solar cells added to them to charge them.

Anker makes great power banks, so does Mophie, Ugreen and Otterbox.
