Anker PowerCore 26800 (26800mAh) - 3 USB outputs, 2 inputs for charging. Removed away all worry about not having phone charging capability if you're on the move.

There's likely better options available now with USB-C inputs, but the product is still fantastic.

Oral-B Genius 9000 - looked like an overpriced & gimmicky toothbrush (with AR + Bluetooth). It is, but the carry-case is useful to double as an extra shaver->USB option, it's got a long battery life, and it has a good number of modes for brushing.

Oculus Quest 2 - initially I wasn't sure if it'd be a gimmick, but it's an effortless & fun way to burn calories

I have a RAVPOWER 26800mAh with USB PD.

It has 2 USB A (Out) and a USB-C (In/Out), I can charge my Nintendo Switch, phone, wife's phone, tablet, kid's tablet, Earbud case and XPS 13 (@30W) on the go.

I also use it to power my Pinecil when I'm working away from a plug socket.

Very handy when we're out and about without the car.

It's also the max size you can carry on a plane for travel (100Wh is the max in many places) at 99.3Wh.

Do you bring your battery with you when you're out and about? How do you carry it (if you do)? I have a battery and it is pocket sized, but it's not exactly comfortable to carry along with my wallet and phone.

Depends if I think I might be needing it.

Tote bag/leather satchel for everyday (especially because it lets you carry USB & lightning cables); backpack for longer trips. It's a big battery and wouldn't be feasible to carry in my pocket
