I purchased the PowerCore+26800 PD the first time it went on sale and it is by far the best of my 20+ battery banks. I rarely if ever can drain it below 50% and it is quite compact for how much charge it holds. You can even hook it to your Mac Book Pro if you are desperate for a little more battery life. These are probably some of the last Ankler PowerCore 26800PD we will see since this was one of the first few power delivery power banks on the market when Fujifilm made its compatibility list and details which I have reproduced below:

*1:If a camera with a charged battery is connected to the mobile battery,
the mobile battery supplies power to the camera, so that the power
consumption of the battery in the camera becomes less. It is very
useful especially for a continuous shooting like a movie, time lapse shooting
and so on. If the camera turns off, a battery charge automatically starts.
- How to connect the mobile battery to a camera (recommendation)
(1) Prepare the USB cable to connect a camera and the mobile battery.
* In case of X-T3, use the cable bundled with the mobile battery
or commercial “TypeC to TypeC” cablecertified by USB-IF.
In case of cameras other than X-T3, use a commercial “TypeC to MicroB” cable
certified by USB-IF.
(2) Connect a USB cable to the USB terminal of a camera.
(3) There are two kinds of output ports, USB Standard-A and Type-C on the mobile battery.
In case of charging battery and supplying power, use the output ports of the USB Type-C.
Model | Port on a camera | Port on the mobile battery | USB cable to be used(*2) |
X-T3 | Connect to USB Type-C port | Connect to Type-C port | Type-C to Type-C cable |
