Does this fit within the limit to take on planes?
Depends on the voltage. I know my 20000mAh ones work out to 74Wh which is more than safe.
Usually the rule is you can have 20 spare batteries or battery banks that are under 100Wh, and optionally two of them can be over 100Wh but not exceeding 160Wh. So you could have 18 under 100Wh and two that are 160Wh at maximum.
At a guess, this one could be over 100Wh so you can probably take it on a plane but may be limited to two of them.
Total capacity of this battery is 88.56Whr, which is under 100Whr limit imposed by most airlines, so yes, you can take it on a plane. [Source] While the Whr rating is not advertised on any of Anker's official marketing material. its there on the battery pack itself so you can always show it to Airport security if asked.
Wow, mega amp !!! once fully charged, this thing could power the whole Australia.
I think the auto-suggested title did that.
Note: USB-C 1 has a maximum power of 45W, while USB-C 2 has a maximum power of 20W

No, You can draw upto 65W through USB C1 port when you don’t have anything else connected (20V @ 3.25A see the back of the power bank in the video I linked above). The 45W limit applies when both C1 and C2 are used at the same time (2 in 1 mode). This can charge a laptop that can be powered with a 65W adaptor.
Ok, so they gave out false information on the listing. Thanks for clarifying.
Yes, it is confusing, especially the first bullet point under “About this item.” However, the first marketing image does show 65W full-speed charging when connected to a laptop. And most windows laptops (including the Dell XPS which is listed as supported in the title) require a minimum of 65W to charge. They also have “for laptops” in the name, so that is a giveaway too.
@opt: I pulled the trig based on your last advice thanks.
@Budju: No worries, BTW the review I linked above also shows a MacBook being charged at 65W.
Isnt the 100w ugreen one better?
https://www.amazon.com.au/UGREEN-25188-20000mAh-Power-Bank/d…Feature wise this is 24k mAh, 65W max out, 30W charging, the Ugreen is 20k mAh, 100W max out and 65W charging, so there is a slight trade-off between capacity and charge/discharge rate. But Anker has a much better reputation with power banks, batteries and battery operated devices (e.g. Eufy is also owned by Anker), they also make whole home backup batteries. Ugreen on the other hand is a relatively new player in battery market and in my experience using some of their cables, and adaptors the quality isn’t that great either, good for the money, but not the same level as Anker IMO. I still buy cheap cables and cable adaptors, USB hubs etc. from Ugreen, but for chargers and batteries I always go with Anker or another known brand like Belkin. Because I don’t like to gamble with high current/energy devices.
yeah I think it's a good price.
pretty sure it's usually the 20000mAh version that's reduced to $89.
sorry ignore this comment. I failed at reading and thought this was Ugreen 24000mAh.
picture looks the same.
I don't think these have pass through charging. Happy to be corrected though.
Some may find lack of pass through annoying.
how do you use these on trips? they are so heavy I don't know where I'd use it
High output large power banks like these are meant for people who want to charge larger devices like laptops and tablets, even says so in the name : Anker 537 Power Bank (PowerCore 24K for Laptop). For those who already carry a laptop, carrying this in the same bag shouldn't be an issue.
Nice I am going to use my $15 from here https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/849202 to buy this Thanks OP
