This is where the Anker Prime 300W earns its size and price. It has been excellent for keeping MacBooks, iPads, and phones charged, but it is also a great fit for production gear. I have used it to charge camera equipment, run a video slider, and power a variety of Amaran lights. The USB-C ports are the key here. They offer enough output to make this power bank useful in situations where smaller batteries simply cannot keep up. For a filmmaker or creator working away from an outlet, it can cover a lot of different jobs with one battery.Read T
Compact yet powerful Anker Prime Power Bank for outdoor shootingWatch F Facebook Steve Carter · owner
Hi, I have the 26k Anker Prime powerbank which is awesome. I also travel a lot by air and have noticed airlines limiting passengers to just one power bank. So what I am wondering is could Anker design a two in one powerbank that combined are onre unit under the flying limits but separates in to two with on bank being a light easy to carry slimline day powerbank and the other a high capacity high power unit like the Anker Prime? Just an idea.View post S

The Anker Prime 26K (300W) isn’t a normal power bank – it's an absolute monster. But honestly, this one will be overkill for a lot of people. It can deliver enough power for two laptops simultaneously, as well as phones, cameras, and other accessories, and still fits in a camera bag, but whether you can take advantage of all that power is the question.Read T

This does have a convenient display on the front which gives you important information on the power bank's charge level, the speed at which each port is charging at, as well as temperature information. Talking about temperature, the Active Shield 4.0 technology on this power bank conducts 10 million daily temperature checks to enhance safety. Both USBC ports provide a maximum 140 watt output and the USBA port at 22.5 watt output. But keep in mind, you'll only see those higher outputs if the device that you have can be charged at those levels. If your device doesn't support the higher charging speeds, it will charge at the fastest output your device can do.Watch G

It comes with a dedicated charging base for effortless desktop recharging. Let me break down the specs.

The 26,250 MIA capacity, 99.75Wh, is TSA approved for carry-on flights, and can charge a 16-in MacBook Pro to around 70% or a 14-in MacBook Pro 1.25 times over. It recharges itself at up to 250W using both USBC ports simultaneously, hitting 50% in just 13 minutes.Watch C
