I also like how its three wireless charging pads cut down on cable chaos, letting you charge a Qi-enabled phone, earbuds case and Apple Watch at the same time.<\/p>\n<p>You certainly could charge all three of those accessories <em>and<\/em> a laptop at one time, but as with all batteries, that increased drain will quickly empty it and your charge times will slow down quite a bit. From what I\u2019ve seen, the unit works best as an as-needed power supply when you\u2019re out and about, then, after a recharge, it can moonlight as a three-in-one wireless charger in your hotel room. You can even rely on the pass-through charging capabilities to power up the battery while using the wireless pads, making it a sort of travel-ready multi-device<a data-i13n=\"cpos:2;pos:1;sec:large-product;subsec:commlist;pkgt:square-editorial;pos:9;cpos:1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/best-multi-device-wireless-charging-pads-120557582.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:charger;cpos:2;pos:1;sec:large-product;subsec:commlist;pkgt:square-editorial;pos:9;cpos:1;elm:context_link;itc:0\" class=\"link rapid-noclick-resp\"> charger<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>At two pounds, no one would call this light, but the angled corners and narrow design make it feel more compact than other big batteries. There\u2019s no display to tell you how much charge is left, just four lighted pips at one edge, but I found them to provide a fairly accurate estimate. One thing to note is that the wireless watch pad only works with Apple Watches. Since Pixel watches don\u2019t support wireless charging and Samsung only recommends its own chargers for Galaxy Watches, that&#8217;s not surprising.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The only other drawback is the single USB-C port. The three wireless pads and the two USB-A ports will likely be enough for a days\u2019 work, but one more type-C port would be ideal. Compared to other 27,000 maAh battery packs, the $174 price tag on the Eclipse Mag is a decent deal \u2014 and it even comes with a five-year warranty.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"flex flex-col

The shape is more tablet-like than the standard block of most power banks, which makes it easier to slide into a backpack or messenger bag alongside a laptop \u2014 it&#8217;s also the lightest of the banks I tried in this capacity category.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The display underestimates the amount of charge left, which is always better than the alternative. When the Blade was down to just one percent, it gave my laptop a few more percentage points before giving up the ghost. It has two USB-C and two USB-A ports along with little feet at the bottom that keep from moving around as you plug cables into it. The speeds were admirable, clocking in just a few minutes longer than batteries with larger capacities.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s the main trade off here: At 20,000 mAh, it\u2019s not going to deliver the same amount of charge as a bigger bank. It boosted my 16-inch MacBook Pro from 10 percent to 62 percent, which is about 20 percentage points lower than the bigger batteries could do. But for $100, it\u2019s still a speedy portable charger with a convenient shape and a good number of ports.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"flex flex-col rounded-lg bg-marshmallow p-5 @xl\/p:flex-row

That makes it the most expensive power bank I\u2019ve tested so far. But it&#8217;s a high-quality unit that gives you what you pay for. There\u2019s a wireless charging pad up top, three USB-C ports (though one is input only), plus a couple of USB-A ports, an AC port and an 8mm port that can pair up with a Goal Zero solar panel or 12V adapter cable to recharge from your car. There\u2019s even an internal fan to keep everything cool as it deals with all the output and a status display you can turn on or off.<\/p>\n<p>Goal Zero is probably best known for its outdoor-focused power products \u2014 power stations for camping, portable solar panels and camping lights, to name a few. The Sherpa has the same rugged\/industrial aluminum unibody design, which would make it an ideal productivity companion for field work. I could see this coming in handy for outdoor photo shoots, job-site projects or just snagging some nature-side office hours.<\/p>\n<p>The ability to recharge from a car\u2019s 12V port or even from solar panels is another nice-to-have, but of course, you\u2019ll need extra equipment. In the case of the car charger, that\u2019s another $40, but the solar panels will add another $250 to your mobile set up. If you find yourself working out in the field relatively often you might appreciate the flexibility.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"flex flex-col rounded-lg bg-marshmallow p-5 @xl\/p:flex-row

Then there\u2019s the AC port.<\/p>\n<p>The AC port on any portable charger is a novel thing to have; as mentioned previously, it\u2019s the USB-C port that should power your laptop because it makes no sense to convert a portable battery\u2019s charge twice. That said, if you need to power a light, a portable printer or some other appliance that only has a standard two-prong plug, this port will come in handy. Just be sure to hold down the status button to enable the AC function.<\/p>\n<p>Mophie\u2019s pack has enough juice to give a smartphone three to four charges, fill an iPad twice with a charge left over and it can charge a 16-inch MacBook Pro from 10 percent to 75 percent in under 90 minutes, while in use. The four lighted LED indicators aren&#8217;t the best: I found it cycled through the last two dots far quicker than the first two, which might make you think you have more charge left than you actually do.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"flex flex-col rounded-lg bg-marshmallow p-5 @xl\/p:flex-row dark:bg-batcave clear-right mb-5\">\n<div class=\"flex-1 border-solid border-dirty-seagull dark:border-charcoal border-b @xl\/p:border-b-0 @xl\/p:border-r-2 mb-6 mr-0 pb-6 pr-0 @xl\/p:mb-0 @xl\/p:mr-4 @xl\/p:pb-0 @xl\/p:pr-4\"><span class=\"space-x-2 text-lg\/6 font-bold uppercase\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"fill-ninja-turtle dark:fill-mulah scale-[0.92] inline -translate-y-0.5\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\"><path d=\"M12 1c6.075 0 11 4.925 11 11s-4.925 11-11 11S1 18.075 1 12 5.925 1 12 1Zm4.201 7.305-6.186 6.172-2.223-2.216a1.047 1.047 0 0 0-1.481 0 1.042 1.042 0 0 0 0 1.477l2.963 2.956a1.05 1.05 0 0 0 1.482 0l6.926-6.911a1.044 1.044 0 0 0 0-1.478 1.049 1.049 0 0 0-1.481 0Z\"\/><\/svg><span>Pros<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"mt-2 pl-6 leading-relaxed @xl\/p:text-lg\/[30px]\">\n<li class=\"list-disc\">Massive 27,000mAh capacity<\/li>\n<li class=\"list-disc\">Has an AC outlet and two USB-C ports<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"flex-1\"><span class=\"space-x-2 text-lg\/6 font-bold uppercase\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"fill-solo-cup dark:fill-watermelon scale-[0.92] inline -translate-y-0.5\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\"><path d=\"M12 1c6.075 0 11 4.925 11 11s-4.925 11-11 11S1 18.075 1 12 5.925 1 12 1ZM7.415 7.188l-.098.087a1.053 1.053 0 0 0 0 1.483l3.2 3.211-3.244 3.246a1.045 1.045 0 0 0 1.476 1.478l3.24-3.243 3.231 3.242a1.04 1.04 0 0 0 1.476 0 1.051 1.051 0 0 0 0-1.483l-3.228-3.24 3.184-3.187c.376-.377.405-.969.087-1.379l-.087-.098a1.043 1.043 0 0 0-1.476 0l-3.181 3.184-3.202-3.214a1.04 1.04 0 0 0-1.378-.087Z\"\/><\/svg><span>Cons<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"mt-2 pl-6 leading-relaxed @xl\/p:text-lg\/[30px]\">\n<li class=\"list-disc\">Expensive<\/li>\n<li class=\"list-disc\">No status display<\/li>\n<li class=\"list-disc\">Lighted pips don&#8217;t accurately indicate remaining charge<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a data-ylk=\"aid:amazon_B0BWSDWZ96;cpos:5;itmId:$164;ll3:product-unavailable;ll4:productoffer-manual;pid:amazon_B0BWSDWZ96;pdid:Mophie Powerstation Pro AC (2023) 27,000mAh battery ;subsec:commlist;elmt:chooseForMe;itemcost:$200;sellerN:Amazon;pos:4;sec:large-product;elm:affiliate_link;itc:0;pkgt:horizontal-cta-1;slk:$164 at Amazon;\" class=\"rapid-with-clickid peer clear-right box-border block w-full min-w-60 rounded-[40px] px-7 text-center hover:no-underline hover:opacity-100 active:opacity-60 @xl\/p:w-9\/12 commerce-cta-btn-primary bg-inkwell py-3 font-semibold leading-5 text-white hover:bg-charcoal hover:text-grey-hair active:bg-charcoal active:text-grey-hair peer-[&amp;]:mt-3 dark:bg-white dark:text-batcave dark:hover:bg-bob dark:focus:bg-bob dark:active:bg-bob\" href=\"https:\/\/shopping.yahoo.com\/rdlw?merchantId=66ea567a-c987-4c2e-a2ff-02904efde6ea&amp;siteId=us-engadget&amp;pageId=pnr-product-module&amp;contentUuid=c803d2c4-bcfe-4f4a-8b7d-1f390c4e3c3d&amp;featureId=product-url&amp;merchantName=Amazon&amp;custData=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&amp;signature=AQAAAa7hLj7tVLwn38jZWlvRQFc7Q1jx79L63gYfo7FasNQp&amp;gcReferrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fmophie-powerstation-pro-compatbile-integrated%2Fdp%2FB0BWSDWZ96&amp;itemName=Mophie+Powerstation+Pro+AC+%282023%29+27%2C000mAh+battery+&amp;salePrice=164.29&amp;price=199.95&amp;itemSourceId=B0BWSDWZ96&amp;refurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.engadget.com%2Fcomputing%2Faccessories%2Fbest-laptop-power-bank-120040388.html\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">$164 at Amazon<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"caas-jump-link-heading\" id=\"what-to-look-for-in-a-laptop-power-bank\">What to look for in a laptop power bank<\/h2>\n<h3 class=\"caas-jump-link-heading\" id=\"capacity\"><strong>Capacity<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>If you just need to keep a smartphone from dying before you can make it home, just about any power bank will do. But if you need to revive multiple devices or the substantial battery of a laptop, you\u2019ll want something with a high milliamp-hour\u200b\u200b (mAh) capacity. A power bank capable of delivering enough power to a laptop will have a capacity between 20,000 and 27,000 mAh.<\/p>\n<p>Go higher than 27,000mAh and you likely won\u2019t be able to <a data-i13n=\"cpos:7;pos:1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tsa.gov\/travel\/security-screening\/whatcanibring\/all\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:take it on an airplane;cpos:7;pos:1;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">take it on an airplane<\/a>, which is why most portable chargers top out around that number. Since the voltage for most portable power banks is around 3.7 volts, a 27,000mAh battery translates to 99.9 watt hours \u2014 which is the maximum capacity the <a data-i13n=\"cpos:8;pos:1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tsa.gov\/travel\/security-screening\/whatcanibring\/all?combine=batteries&amp;page=1#:~:text=The%20battery%20voltage%20must%20not,regulations%20for%20full%20packaging%20requirements.\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:TSA will allow;cpos:8;pos:1;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">TSA will allow<\/a> for carry-on luggage. (And note that these batteries can\u2019t be checked, regardless of size).<\/p>\n<p>If you want something even bigger than a laptop power bank, and don\u2019t need to fly with it, you\u2019ll likely want to look into portable power stations. These can be the size of a car battery or larger and can potentially fuel an entire weekend away.<\/p>\n<p>Another thing to keep in mind is that the capacity listed in a power bank&#8217;s specs is not what will be delivered to your devices. As I mentioned, the capacity of these banks is around 25,000mAh. Even the huge battery on a 16-inch MacBook Pro or a Dell XPS 16 has a mAh rating of around 5,000 &#8211; 6,000mAh, so you might think you\u2019d get five full charges but in reality, you only get about a single 70-percent charge. The voltage is different (typically 3.7V for the power bank and 11.4V for a laptop) which makes the watt-hours, or the amount of energy each battery can hold, different (working out to 92Wh for the battery and 72Wh for the built-in laptop batteries). On top of that, in order to feed a charge from a power bank to a laptop, a voltage conversion takes place and that dissipates a decent amount of energy.<\/p>\n<p>Without turning this into a physics lesson, this all means that a power bank with a 25,000mAh (or 92Wh) capacity will typically fill a 5,000mAh (or 72Wh) laptop battery to about 75 percent. In my tests, I averaged about a 60-percent efficiency rate between a power bank\u2019s listed capacity and the actual charge delivered.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"caas-jump-link-heading\" id=\"ports\"><strong>Ports<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Every large power bank I\u2019ve tested has at least three USB ports, with a mix of USB-C and USB-A, which should cover nearly any portable device you need to recharge \u2014 earbuds, phones, tablets, laptops, you name it. In addition to the different plug formats, some ports supply power at different wattages. For example, one USB-C port might be rated for 60 watts, while the one next to it is rated for 100 watts. So if you\u2019ve got a device that\u2019s capable of 70W fast charging, such as the new MacBook Air, you\u2019d want to opt for the 100W port to get the best charging speeds possible. Note that devices with a smaller wattage draw won\u2019t be negatively affected by connecting to ports with high ratings. For example, a Galaxy S24 Ultra, capable of 45W super fast charging, can happily plug into the 100W port. A device will only draw what it can take, regardless of what a port can supply. Just remember that the port, device <em>and<\/em> cable need to be at or above the desired wattage rating to achieve maximum charging rates.<\/p>\n<p>Some of these larger batteries also have AC ports. It might seem like a natural fit to plug in your laptop\u2019s power adapter for a recharge. But really, the AC port should only be for devices that can\u2019t use USB \u2014 such as a lamp or a printer. Plugging a power adapter into the AC port only wastes energy through conversion. First, the battery converts its DC power to supply the port with AC power, then the power adapter converts that AC power back to DC so your laptop can take it in. And as you\u2019ll remember from physics class, each time energy is converted, some is lost to heat and other dissipations. Better to cut out the middleman and just send that DC power straight from the battery to the device.<\/p>\n<p>Also, you can use more than one port at a time with these devices; just remember that the speed of whatever you\u2019re charging will likely go down, and of course, the battery is going to drain proportionally to what you\u2019re refilling.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"caas-jump-link-heading\" id=\"wireless-charging\"><strong>Wireless charging<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Just in the last year and a half that I\u2019ve been testing portable power banks, wireless charging capabilities have noticeably improved. The first few I tried were painfully slow and not worth recommending. Now the wireless pads built into power banks are impressively fast \u2014 particularly, in my experience, when charging Samsung Galaxy phones (though the lack of a stabilizing magnetic connection like Apple\u2019s MagSafe means they only work when rested flat on a pad). Most wireless charging connections can be used while other ports are also being employed, making them convenient for some mobile battlestation setups.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, wireless charging is always less efficient than wired, and recharging from an external battery is less efficient in general. If you want to waste as little energy as possible, you\u2019re better off sticking to wired connections.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"caas-jump-link-heading\" id=\"design\"><strong>Design<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>All power banks are designed to be portable, but there\u2019s a big difference between a pocket-friendly 5,000mAh battery and one of these laptop-compatible bruisers. Most of the latter weigh between a pound and a half to two pounds, which is a considerable addition to a backpack. Many of the options listed here have a display to tell you how much charge remains in the battery, which is helpful when you\u2019re trying to judiciously meet out charges to your devices. If a bank has a wireless connection, the pad is usually on the flat top and any available AC connection is usually at one end. Both may require you to engage those charging methods. Don\u2019t be like me and grumble loudly that you got a bum unit without pressing (and sometimes double pressing) all the buttons first.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"caas-jump-link-heading\" id=\"how-we-test-portable-laptop-chargers\">How we test portable laptop chargers<\/h2>\n<p>For the past year and a half, I\u2019ve been testing and using dozens of portable batteries for our other battery guide. Some of those batteries include the higher-capacity power banks you see here. I also got a hold of a few extra banks just for this guide to make sure we covered what\u2019s available. I went for brands I\u2019m already familiar with, as well as battery packs from well-received manufacturers I hadn\u2019t tried before (like UGREEN and Lion Energy). I only considered banks with at least a 20,000mAh capacity and mostly stuck with those that rated 25,000mAh and higher.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s everything we tested:<\/p>\n<p>Due to shipping and travel issues, I wasn\u2019t able to test two of the batteries I had slated: the <a data-i13n=\"elm:affiliate_link;sellerN:Hyper;elmt:;cpos:17;pos:1\" href=\"https:\/\/shopping.yahoo.com\/rdlw?merchantId=2c93a509-c37a-4798-b978-795281692d23&amp;siteId=us-engadget&amp;pageId=1p-autolink&amp;contentUuid=c803d2c4-bcfe-4f4a-8b7d-1f390c4e3c3d&amp;featureId=text-link&amp;merchantName=Hyper&amp;custData=eyJzb3VyY2VOYW1lIjoiV2ViLURlc2t0b3AtVmVyaXpvbiIsImxhbmRpbmdVcmwiOiJodHRwczovL3d3dy5oeXBlcnNob3AuY29tL3Byb2R1Y3RzL2h5cGVyanVpY2UtMjQ1dy11c2ItYy1iYXR0ZXJ5LXBhY2siLCJjb250ZW50VXVpZCI6ImM4MDNkMmM0LWJjZmUtNGY0YS04YjdkLTFmMzkwYzRlM2MzZCIsIm9yaWdpbmFsVXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaHlwZXJzaG9wLmNvbS9wcm9kdWN0cy9oeXBlcmp1aWNlLTI0NXctdXNiLWMtYmF0dGVyeS1wYWNrIn0&amp;signature=AQAAAaz3PR-XqcBdnqO82nXy1rrlde5SZd2vCx9OZRQD-8m2&amp;gcReferrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.hypershop.com%2Fproducts%2Fhyperjuice-245w-usb-c-battery-pack&amp;refurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.engadget.com%2Fcomputing%2Faccessories%2Fbest-laptop-power-bank-120040388.html\" class=\"link  rapid-with-clickid etailiffa-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:HyperJuice 245W;elm:affiliate_link;sellerN:Hyper;elmt:;cpos:17;pos:1;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\">HyperJuice 245W<\/a> and the <a data-i13n=\"elm:affiliate_link;sellerN:Amazon;elmt:;cpos:18;pos:1\" href=\"https:\/\/shopping.yahoo.com\/rdlw?merchantId=66ea567a-c987-4c2e-a2ff-02904efde6ea&amp;siteId=us-engadget&amp;pageId=1p-autolink&amp;contentUuid=c803d2c4-bcfe-4f4a-8b7d-1f390c4e3c3d&amp;featureId=text-link&amp;merchantName=Amazon&amp;custData=eyJzb3VyY2VOYW1lIjoiV2ViLURlc2t0b3AtVmVyaXpvbiIsImxhbmRpbmdVcmwiOiJodHRwczovL3d3dy5hbWF6b24uY29tL1VHUkVFTi0yNTAwMG1BaC1Qb3J0YWJsZS1DaGFyZ2luZy1Db21wYXRpYmxlL2RwL0IwQkpRN0YxNlQ_dGFnPWdkZ3QwYy0yMCIsImNvbnRlbnRVdWlkIjoiYzgwM2QyYzQtYmNmZS00ZjRhLThiN2QtMWYzOTBjNGUzYzNkIiwib3JpZ2luYWxVcmwiOiJodHRwczovL3d3dy5hbWF6b24uY29tL1VHUkVFTi0yNTAwMG1BaC1Qb3J0YWJsZS1DaGFyZ2luZy1Db21wYXRpYmxlL2RwL0IwQkpRN0YxNlQiLCJkeW5hbWljQ2VudHJhbFRyYWNraW5nSWQiOnRydWUsInNpdGVJZCI6InVzLWVuZ2FkZ2V0IiwicGFnZUlkIjoiMXAtYXV0b2xpbmsiLCJmZWF0dXJlSWQiOiJ0ZXh0LWxpbmsifQ&amp;signature=AQAAATL10mr4tbsAz-s3GYpi3UljeDz1nxabQQM6V-3WCET1&amp;gcReferrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FUGREEN-25000mAh-Portable-Charging-Compatible%2Fdp%2FB0BJQ7F16T&amp;refurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.engadget.com%2Fcomputing%2Faccessories%2Fbest-laptop-power-bank-120040388.html\" class=\"link  rapid-with-clickid etailiffa-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:UGREEN Power Bank 25,000mAh;elm:affiliate_link;sellerN:Amazon;elmt:;cpos:18;pos:1;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\">UGREEN Power Bank 25,000mAh<\/a>. Once I\u2019ve had a chance to see how these two perform \u2014 as well as any new worthy contenders that hit the market \u2014 I\u2019ll update this guide accordingly.<\/p>\n<p>I tested each power bank with an iPhone 15, a Galaxy S23 Ultra, an iPad Air (M1) and a 16-inch MacBook Pro with the M1 Pro chip. Even though these banks can charge multiple devices at once, I refilled one at a time, to make side-by-side comparisons more straightforward. I drained the batteries of the phones and tablets to between zero and five percent and then didn\u2019t use any device as it refilled.<\/p>\n<p>For the MacBook, I let it run down to 10 percent before plugging in the power bank. That&#8217;s when most laptops give display a \u201cconnect to power\u201d warning, as draining any battery to empty will compromise the battery life. I then used it as one might in a mobile office, with a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse, while connected to Wi-Fi and a VPN.<\/p>\n<p>For each test, I noted how long a completely charged battery took to get a device back to full and how much of the battery\u2019s capacity was used up in one charge.

Phone power banks tend to have a capacity ranging from 5,000mAh to 20,000mAh and laptop powerbanks are typically rated between 20,000mAh and 27,000mAh. There\u2019s no official definition, however. Laptop batteries are simply larger and need a bigger supply of power to give them a meaningful charge.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"caas-jump-link-heading\" id=\"how-do-you-fast-charge-a-power-bank\"><strong>How do you fast charge a power bank?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>You can charge a power bank exactly as fast as the power bank\u2019s internal mechanisms will allow. Most batteries are limited in how quickly they can accept and deliver a charge to avoid dangerously overheating. But to make sure you\u2019re charging a bank as quickly as possible, make sure the wall adapter and the USB-C cable you are using have a high wattage rating \u2014 using a 5W power brick and a 10W cable will take a lot longer to refill your bank than a 65W wall charger and a 100W cord.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"caas-jump-link-heading\" id=\"what-size-power-bank-do-i-need-for-a-laptop\"><strong>What size power bank do I need for a laptop?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Look for a power bank with a rating of at least 20,000mAh.
