Do you still need USB-C charging cables if this portable battery exists? I tested it to find out


Drones, action cameras, pocket-sized gimbal cameras, and mics all have voracious appetites for power. This Baseus power bank will do the job.

The 20,000mAh capacity is ideal for keeping things like action cameras and drones topped up throughout the day without adding too much in the way of weight to my gear bag. Baseus has used graphene and aerospace-grade aerogel thermal insulation to dissipate the heat, and the on-board control chip keeps an eye to make sure that things stay safe and cool. The Baseus EnerCore CR11 definitely does thanks to its compact size and powerful 20,000mAh of battery capacity, the retractable cable, and spare USB-C port.
