USB-C power bank
A battery big enough to charge a tablet or laptop, not only a phone
Lithium packs whose USB-C ports push enough wattage to charge a tablet or a laptop. Sellers quote capacity in milliamp hours. Output wattage decides what it can charge. Anyone working away from a desk carries one so the day does not end when the device does, and the big packs are heavy enough that most people keep a small one as well.

Travels with several USB-C batteries at once: a 300W UGREEN pack, a smaller Anker Prime, and a MagSafe battery that clips to the phone. Chargers and batteries take a section of their own on his setup page, ahead of the television and the desk.
