Woot.com has a refurbished Mophie Powerstation PD XL for $13.99 each.
It's a 10000mAh powerbank that supports PD 2.0 (18 watt) speeds through the USB-C port.
At $14 shipped for Amazon Prime members, it's a steal.
Update 9/28 - Woot's vendor (ZAGG) seems to be sending out a different power bank (a Lightning charged wireless model) than the one advertised. If you have ordered one please update the thread if you received the correct item or not.
Update 2 - 10/3 - Woot's customer service attempted to get ZAGG to send me the correct power bank and they ended up sending me two more of the wireless lightning models. Something is completely broken between Woot and ZAGG's inventory systems.
Woot has refunded my order, but has not corrected their website. I've removed the link from this post. I encourage anyone who ordered these to contact Woot customer service and get a refund.

Thx…seems like a great deal. Bought 2
I guarantee that it will not have real 30,000mAh capacity. No-name brands which advertise too good to be true capacity are rampant. You'll be lucky to get 10,000mAh out of it.
I just received mine yesterday. It looks like it was refurbished a couple of years ago and stored. I didn't have high expectations upon first glance. After charging it up, I used it to charge an ipad mini. It worked surprisingly well.
Short term deal maybe.. I'm actually going to try to find a 30w one, I figure something that will run, not just charge a Chromebook would be nice. If it's anywhere under $20 that seems like a good deal.
My experience with these Mophie battery/power banks is mixed. I think I bought 6 of the 10K mAh. I have one Anker also. I've had several fail after warranty ended. The price is good considering they used to sell for $100. Convientent compared to having to be plugged into a wall outlet all the time.
The old products are far better quality but take longer to charge. I have one from 2015 and it still works amazing. I got 2 from 2018 and they are fine still as well. I just bought a new one xxl with usb C for 20 from Walmart and the first one failed within a week, second still working. Fortunately it was in the 15 day return period so I took it back.
In addition, refurbs shouldn't be an issue. Remember if you have a warranty issue with any product they send you a refurb anyway.

Lithium batteries will age as time passes even if you don't use up cycles. Your 7 year old 2015 battery will have less capacity than the same battery manufactured within the last 2 years. Maybe you don't notice the capacity differences but people who shop by capacity do.
I'd recommend checking your item upon receipt. I received an item with a lightning port and the model number matches that of the lightning port model.
This happened to me as well. Mine had a Lightning and USB-A port. And appears to support Qi Wireless charging? But I can't get that to work, and I don't have a lightning cable to attempt charging it. Either way, woot.com game me a refund.
Received mine today, and ordered the 10k USBC-PD, BUT received the powerstation wireless that charges via apple lighting cable. Double-check your orders.

It's at the very end before check out. Kinda hidden, but sadly, I could not get the code to work for me.
