Zero Portable Laptop Battery Pack Power Bank

Excellent portable power bank.

I've been using this as a multi-purpose unit from camera battery to portable power bank for recharging my phone and other USB devices. It's quite compact for 98Wh and pretty great price too.

I've taken this power bank on a few trips, including one international trip. I bought it as a backup for my laptop on long flights since the battery life on my laptop is not good (it's optimized for performance, not battery life). No problems powering my laptop, and it's charged up my phone and tablet a few times also. Its main drawback is that it's a little heavy. But it's worth carrying around. Comes with a nice microfiber bag to protect it when not in use. Make sure you keep this in your carry-on luggage. Most airlines will not allow you to put lithium batteries in checked luggage.

Fast charging power bank, which charged my laptop at least two times.

B&H made a great recommendation to me on this one! Here is a very reasonably priced portable AC power pack that can drive up to 1000 watts of monolights. It comes with two AC outlets and the battery seems to last for a long time. I just did a 3 hour shoot, taking something like 400 images with two 300 watt-second lights operating at about 80% of full power and my battery level is still on 75%. That's pretty great if you ask me. The inverter is also very portable and weighs much less than I thought it would. I had some questions on the use of the product in the field so I called the manufacturer. They answered immediately and really know their products and are passionate about quality, too.

Running off a laptop means it helps to have an external that has its own power source so its not draining my laptop battery. I have a portable drive so I use this one when in the studio and both always contain the exact same files. I have used Western Digital for years and trust them as I have never had one fail.

The Goal Zero Nomad 20 is a great portable solar panel. I haven't given it a lot of use yet, but already it works as intended. I am able to charge my phone off it when the sky is overcast. In direct sunlight, it charges faster. I was also able to charge a usb battery pack, that doubles as a car jump starter, while out camping where there was no electricity. This was handy, considering I drained my car battery running a waffle maker. Downsides? it doesn't come with a carrying strap, though it isn't hard to add one.

This is a Great Battery Pack with even more power than the 400DR!

I use it to put my power bank on it.
