USB output power battery pack?

Looking for one of these type things, well Chrimbo and the Ice Fest are looming. https://www.amazon.co.uk/RAVPower-26800mAh...&psc=1 This

3 x USBs, all decent amps (amps being king) and charges up via the Anker USB block in the car so 2.4A in, reducing the charging time. What's not to like? I'm aiming to use it to keep the ipad & idog&bone charged up in the tent rather than leaving tech in the car connected to the aux battery.

Thoughts oh techie ones out there?

I've got the slightly smaller version of this at 20100mAh. It charges my phone and tablet many many times. Not sure how many as I've always been back to civilisation before all power is drained.
Mine has 2 x square USB sockets, a USB-C and A Micro USB. Charges phone faster than a meaty mains powered charger from the USB socket marked QuickCharge 5/9/12V. Very impressed. Go for it.

I bought a couple of these a couple of years ago, the boys borrow it when camping for charging the phones, cameras, iPads etc, things they can’t live without. Amazed by it starts a 2.5 litre diesel van with ease and not just once.

The one I'm looking at looks like normal micro USB in so any USB port should do. Confused

Though would have missed it as was busy buying bargain t-shirts from McLaren. Whistle

Get a jump start power pack. Many of the better ones have 2 or 3 USB charging ports as well. Kill 2 birds with 1 stone. Very Happy
