The Anker Laptop Power Bank is a 25,000mAh portable charger with 165W total power delivery across three USB-C ports at up to 100W each and one USB-A port at 33W. Two built-in cables are attached to the body, including a retractable USB-C cable that extends up to 2.3 feet and a fixed 0.98-foot USB-C cable that doubles as a carrying strap. There’s a small smart display on the front that shows remaining capacity in real time. Anker ensured that the total battery capacity of 90Wh is below the 100Wh limit for airline carry-on luggage, making the bank flight-approved for travel.

Go to Amazon to get the Anker Laptop Power Bank for just $96, reduced from its usual price of $135, which is a discount of $39 and 29% off.

An easy way to keep your laptop powered up and running

At 25,000 mAh, the bank holds enough energy to fully charge a 14-inch MacBook Pro multiple times, recharge a smartphone 6 to 8 times, or power a tablet for a day of use. You can top the bank off with a 100W USB-C charger plugged into the dedicated input port, which brings the bank to 30% capacity in 20 minutes. PD 3.0 (Power Delivery) negotiation automatically handles both input charging and output power levels for connected devices.

The bank’s three USB-C ports deliver up to 100W each, with a combined output of up to 165W across all connected devices. A USB-A port can output up to 33W for older devices or accessories that don’t use USB-C. The bank features two built-in USB-C charging ports. The 2.3 ft retractable USB-C cable is long enough to reach the bank in a bag while your laptop sits on a tray table or desk, while the fixed 0.98-foot USB-C cable wraps into a carry strap for easy handling between charging sessions.

You don’t have to worry about the built-in cords’ durability, either. They’ve been tested to withstand 20,000+ extensions for the Extendable cable, and 20,000+ bends for the Carry Strap cable, both of which are many times more than you would experience throughout the product’s lifespan. Despite the high capacity, it’s also relatively light at approximately 500 grams, so it can fit easily into your backpack or as part of your carry-on with minimal added weight.

The small smart display on the front face shows the percentage remaining, the current input and output wattages, and the connection status across the active ports. Anker includes a protective travel pouch and an 18-month warranty with each unit, available in Black and Silver.

A single charge of the Anker Laptop Power Bank covers a long flight, a full conference day, or a weekend trip without requiring a wall outlet between sessions. With the sale dropping the price from $135 to $96 ahead of the summer travel season, this is a great deal and a good fit for months when long flights and road trips put power banks to work.
