RAVPower 26800mAh Battery Bank

[ShadowCaptain]

Hey Guys, quick review of the RAVPower 26800mAh battery bank - UNLIMTED POWERRRRRRRRRRRRR

This thing is a monster, its a little longer than an iPhone, and about as thick as a nintendo 3ds. It weighs about 600 grams so its not exactly pocket friendly but perfect to put into your bag

With a capacity of 26800 you can charge a smartphone like the iPhone 6 about 10 times! Wowzers

The overbuild is a very nice matte black plastic and remains sleek despite its size

That's pretty cool and top of the line. I don't have any power banks myself. I'm very responsible about keeping my phone charged. While I'm not questioning the quality or value, there is the simple matter of "do I need this much power?". I mean if I ever had to charge my phone 10 times in an emergency I think having a phone would be the least of my worries lol.

 

I know it's no super convenient power bank, but this solar power/ hand crank multi tool I have can be used for emergency phone power. Great for keeping in the car or taking camping.

If I really did need something more than that I think something like this looks about right for me upon a quick search:

When you say that 26,800 mAh will charge 10 phones I can divide that by 10 to figure out that it takes ~ 2,600 mAh to charge a phone completely. By those numbers this 15 dollar one could probably charge a phone twice.

 

Well regardless I think you just helped give me an idea for Mother's day coming up. Thanks!

If travelling for a few days away from power you will need it, plus some tablets like my 4th gen iPad have a batter close to 12000mAh!!!! Or I can hook up a go pro, or my iPhone to it for continuous power when shooting 4k, or hook my Vita up for it for none stop gaming

Also, I can charge my Sony mirrorless camera batteries, action camera batteries and my phone all at the same time

This is not really a "pocket" or emergency phone charger, for that a cheapo one with  a few thousand mAh would be fine

so yeah this is only for people who have a specific use for that much power, but its great to put in my camera back to keep me going for a day or two

 

Would also be great for camping  a whole week of phone charging
