26800Mah Battery Ravpower Portable Charger

I was looking for a charger that I can use to charge via a USB-C port, to take advantage of fast charging using a battery pack while traveling. The Jupio charged a single battery from just 3% charge left, all the way up to 100%, in 2 hours and 38 minutes. After 2 hours the battery was up to 93%, so it took the remaining 38 minutes to charge the extra 7%. I also have a RavPower charger (no longer available) that uses a micro-USB port for the charger. The micro-USB specification limits the amount of current traveling from the battery to the charger, so it's not as fast. A similarly depleted battery took 3 hours and 20 minutes to charge in the RavPower. When buying such chargers, pay attention to the current supplied to the battery. I couldn't find many chargers that can supply 8.4V at 1A to a battery as the Jupio does. For example the RavPower is rated at 8.4V and 0.7A, so it charges much slower. The other notable charger that seems to handle 1A is the SmallRig one, but it was not available when I got the Jupio. Note that charging 2 batteries at the same time will limit the amount of current going to each battery to 0.8A, which means slower charging overall. I have not tried to see how long it takes to charge 2 batteries.

Needed to connect RAVPower USB battery to MixPre 6. Works great.

Using a RavPower 28600 mAh battery pack I've been able to power my GH5 camera recording 4K 10-bit video for 12.5 hours. My GH5 got fairly warm, but everything worked flawlessly. I may use this system to power the new Blackmagic Pocket Cine Camera 4K by adding a $35 Canon LP-E6 battery adapter to my kit.

This is a great little portable battery charger. I carry it in my camera bag. It gets t he job done quickly.

Very handy/useful, anker portable battery charger stayed in place,no slippage noted after 4 hrs continuous use.

I'm very happy that with any new piece of portable lighting or camera, I am able to add one of these to my charger. It makes battery charging neat and handy.

I mainly use one at my desk when not charging and using headphones when not using bluetooth. I also have one with my portable battery charger just in case. I’ve never had a problem using Apple lightning earpods and charging at the same time.

This combination of battery and charger is a great value. I currently have five of these and use the batteries in portable video lights. They last well during filming, but recharge time is slow due to battery size.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the best portable charger I’ve used! The battery lasts, it’s easy to charge! It’s small enough I can leave in my purse! It’s reliable, looks great! And I definitely recommend every one have one for emergencies!
