Omnicharge 20 Capacity

[arielestulin]

Does anyone have an Omnicharge 20?
How many times can I recharge my Mavic battery before it's depleted. Seems like a good solution for off-the-grid power.

I'd guess maybe 1-2 charges.

You're generally better off just buying more batteries. I have yet to see one of these that makes much sense.

$250 is outrageous That's a $30 power bank with $220 worth of sockets.

Haha 20000mAh for $250, only because they added inverter. Anker 26800mAh bank is $60 on Amazon.

I get that but when I'm in the bush for 1 week or 2, it doesn't make sense to carry a boatload of batteries so that's why I'm looking for other solutions. I've also read you can use a solar panel to charge the Omnicharge

Yeah I know. But Anker made a PD-compatible bank that can charge laptops. I am sure that with some interest, PD inverter can be made.

Whether it's in Mavic batteries or an external battery, electricity has to be stored. There's no free lunch.

If you're talking about being out in the bush for weeks at a time, your only real option is solar - which is very slow and typically intermittent on a portable scale.
