This probably falls into the category of dumbest question ever - but I have to ask... Does anyone know if you can run a 20000mah power bank into one of the USB ports on the brick charger, to charge a Mavic battery?
It won't work.... USB is 5.5 V Max with an amp rating of 2.5 max. The Mavic batteries need 13 odd Volt and about 5Amp to charge.

today i found this powerbank on a webstore. what do you think about this type?
I purchased that charger. It only works with wall outlet. It's a nice charger though for charging 3 batteries and controller in one hour.

Are you seriously thinking you can somehow feed the stock charger by force feeding it via it's 5V output instead of powering it from the AC and expect it to charge the Mavic's battery as a result?This probably falls into the category of dumbest question ever - but I have to ask...

48000mAh, assuming its 3.7V, is 178Wh, which is almost x2 the maximum capacity (100Wh) you are allowed to carry on a plane according to TSA. Also this thing is gonna be heavy, about 5 times heavier than a single mavic battery (optimistic estimation, based on typical LiPo energy density and circuitry required). Expect the inverter to be rather inefficient, too, meaning you will get about 3 full Mavic batteries instead of 4 out of that thing. But other than that, i don't see why would that product be impossible, unlike the original post idea.We will see if this thing comes out...

Would be ideal for quick "on field" charging
But that will defeat the point of what he wants to do.... Pack light travel lightYes, you can, but with huge power loss. By involving an inverter.
I managed to charge 2 Mavic LiPos with my Sherpa 100 and a 220V power inverter. So yes, it is possible, but highly inefficient.

This answer has typically referred to charging the remote during use, seems they forgot to include that detail in the faq.
