Anker Prime 27650mAh Power Bank

250W total output — charges a MacBook Pro, iPhone, and AirPods simultaneously on travel.

$169.99

Why it's in the kit

Travel days are the bottleneck — one bag, one power bank, everything stays charged. The Prime does 250W across three ports, which means the MacBook gets its 140W fast-charge while the iPhone and AirPods top up on the same pack. 27,650mAh lasts me three travel days between charges.

How I run it

Lives in the Peak Design Tech Pouch in the backpack's laptop compartment. Cables pre-coiled for each device — the 140W USB-C to MagSafe for the MacBook, a short USB-C for the iPhone, and the Apple Watch puck. Flown carry-on only — 99.9Wh just under airline limits.

What I almost bought

  • Anker PowerCore 26800 — Older, slower charging — 60W max can't fast-charge the MacBook Pro.

Skip it if

If you rarely work away from a wall outlet, a smaller 10,000mAh bank covers the phone-battery edge cases.

Strengths

  • + 250W total — powers a MacBook Pro at full speed
  • + Smart digital display shows remaining time per port

Trade-offs

  • − Heavy — 700g, it's the weight of an extra laptop
