FFIW, 26,800mAh is considered the maximum capacity for USB power banks to just slide under the limit put forth by the FAA. You can bring larger capacity batteries onboard, but have to get prior approval each time. So that's why you see a lot of brand with this seemingly oddball capacity of 26,800mAh.

For the nerds: 100 watt hours is the FAA limit. 3.7VDC is the cell voltage. It's cell voltage multiplied by capacity. 3.7V x 26.8Ah = 99.16Wh. Just slides under that 100Wh limit. :-)

Lol. Good luck charging your laptop with that

I have an HP Laptop and it won't recognize a charger being attached and won't charge while it is on unless it senses the entire 65W. It will charge if it is off though. Not sure about MacBooks
Yup, same my HP tank tho it will charge off 45w. My MBA will charge off anything, even a 2.4a wall outlet

This power bank seems like it checks a lot of boxes. I have an older RavPower power bank in the same capacity, but it uses micro USB for charging and does so slowly. Having USB-C PD *input* as well is great, as is the 60W output. I'm trying to convince myself that I need yet another power bank. LOL!
I have a ravpower power bank. It has 1 usb-c, 1 usb-a, and 1 microusb. Yes you can charge with the microusb, but it can also charge with the usb-c with a PD charger. Are you sure yours doesn't?

You made me go check. Well, what do you know. It does say that is support USB-C input. Son of a gun, that will help with the charging a lot, now that I have plenty USB-C chargers lying around. The only downside to this power bank is the lower output power. It doesn't always suffice to keep my Nintendo Switch charging when playing, but other than that, it's been great. Perhaps the Switch doesn't like to run and charge simultaneously. In any case, I'm going to file away this Insignia charger as a possible future purchase should I decide that I need to get my 2021 MBP topped off. That thing runs so long on battery, a power bank may not really be necessary.

Awesome!!
Even if it didn't specifically say that USB-C for input, I would have tried it anyways, it will usually work.

Well, i say usually but somethings it may not work as intended. I have a Energizer power bank with USB-C for input. It works using it to charge my laptop with PD. BUT, once the laptop is fully charged, it starts to reverse charge and drains the laptop battery while charging the back to the power bank!!!!

Yes, it supports normal adaptive fast charging for Samsung Galaxy devices. It does not support Super Fast Charging, which requires PPS

I think it is because Insignia/BB describe it as a "charger." And I guess it does "charge" electronics if the battery itself is charged. But based on the reviews, it sounds like a lot of clueless customers bought this thinking it was a charging brick, rather than a power bank. That said, I could imagine my parents being confused by something like this. . . . though they would not know how to leave a review. Lol.

Sorry im on the fence about buying this, what is it supposed to be used for / what is the use case? Would this work to keep a laptop or switch going? Would it be bst used as a bank for charging electronics during camping or anything?
