Anker 24,000mAh Power Bank for just $90

With 140W USB Type-C Power Delivery

Anker 737 PowerCore 24K 24,000mAh Power Bank with 140W USB Type-C Power Delivery

The Anker PowerCore 737 boasts an impressive 24,000 mAh battery capacity, which is below the TSA’s 27,000 mAh limit; It can charge the Nintendo Switch OLED about 5 times, the iPhone 15 Pro Max about 5 times, the Steam Deck about 4 times, and the ASUS ROG Ally about 9 times. It has two USB Type-C ports and one USB Type-A port with up to 140W Power Delivery on a single USB port. That’s enough power to charge a MacBook Pro 16 at its highest rated charging speed. If you want to use all three ports at the same time, the two Type-C ports only draw up to 122W, while the Type-A draws up to 18W.

What makes this power bank unique compared to many other power banks is the LCD digital readout that shows a lot of useful real-time information such as remaining battery capacity, power input and power output from each port. The power bank measures 6″ x 2″ x 2″ and weighs 1.4 pounds.

The Anker 737 is our pick for the best Steam Deck / ASUS ROG Ally charger

We’ve chosen the Anker 737 as our favorite portable charger for the Steam Deck and ASUS ROG Ally portable gaming handhelds. The Steam Deck accepts USB Power Delivery up to 38W, while the ASUS ROG Ally accepts up to 65W. This means that the Prime Minister can pay two Steam Decks or ASUS ROG Allys at the same time (or three Nintendo Switches) at maximum charging speed. Both the ROG Ally and the Steam Deck suffer from short battery life when gaming on the go. For example, when playing most games at 60 FPS, you’re likely looking at four hours of battery life for the Steam Deck, and less with the ASUS ROG Ally, which packs a paltry 2,600 mAh battery. During our review, we found that even games like God of War or Spider-Man could be used in less than 2 hours. At the end of the day, you’ll never get the full potential out of your Steam Deck or ROG Ally unless you’re equipped with a decent portable charger.
