I train new hires and the #1 hiccup is phones dying mid-route, so I’ve been testing chargers; a 20,000 mAh pack kept nav and photos running for 10.5 hours on a rainy Saturday. What capacity or brand are you all trusting so I can add a reliable pick to our day-one kit and set them up for success?
Running the Anker 737 (24,000 mAh, PD + passthrough) and it keeps nav + photos going 12–13 hours, so your “10.5 hours” mark is covered. Only gripe is weight; if that’s a pain I issue the Anker 525 20k with a short right‑angle USB‑C cable to save the ports. Do you want MagSafe in the day‑one kit or stick to USB‑C?
And i’ve had solid results with the Baseus Blade 20,000 mAh (100W) — it’s pancake-flat like a paperback, keeps nav + photos 11–12 hours, and still has juice to top the scanner at lunch. Do your new hires need passthrough for in-van charging? If weight’s the pain @benjamin_cla45 flagged, two Nitecore NB10000s rotated at break are lighter than one 24k brick.
I kit day-one with two Zendure SuperMini X3s plus a short “right‑angle cable” so the phone stays cooler; they swap at lunch like a tag team. @raul_garcia21 if they want one unit instead, UGREEN’s 145W PD bank with passthrough has been reliable for us, just a bit chunky — does that fit your kit size?
