Will There Be a Shortage of Powerbanks?

After sanitizer, masks and rat tests will powerbanks be the next popular item?
My mum is telling me they are asking for them to be donated to flood areas due to storms and loss of power/homes. I'm donating some of the promotional and low capacity microusb ones I have.
What do you think?

    maybe
    but would need to be charged to be helpful

    cash is best they can get what they need. they were noting not to provide donations of items cause the roads are all damaged so it would be difficult to be delivered

    Unlikely. The combined forces of all the Ozbargainer's powerbank reserves could probably power a small country lol

    It won't take that long to restore power to the areas impacted by flood, so the demand for powerbanks won't last very long.

    • Yeah that makes sense

    How will they charge the powerbanks if there is no power?

    • Generator? Maybe they are looking for high capacity ones

      Haha she told me now they are only looking to borrow them shortterm and return them

  • There aren't that many houses and towns built on floodplains.

    Thoughts and prayers are in short supply. Luckily, the Federal government is on the way with it.
