It's a great size for camping. It also has pass through charging so it acts as a great UPS. I can charge it in the car and plug a travel router into it. If the car turns off (getting gas) the router continues to run. This lets the kids keep streaming local files off their iPads. Plenty of other use cases I'm sure
I also like the tan color, I got mine off Amazon a while ago for $100 but they only had the black and orange.

Yup, I have some portable panels that are 120w. For size reference it folds out to about the size of a 40" lcd tv.

Setup?
I put video files on a travel router that has an Sd slot. (Gli, the black one), that streams to iPads I got off eBay for cheap ($100 for a gen 6 in great condition).
The Jackery keeps the router running during gassing up or other quick stops.
I use infuse for streaming on the iPads - it creates a database and pulls movie information into it. You can sync this one time and as long as the file structure stays the same it wont need data after the first setup you can do at home.
I used to use an Apple TV on our cars built in screen but the new can dropped that option, hence this Frankenstein. It really works seamlessly after setup though.
You could also just drops files on the iPad, but I enjoy tinkering and cheap iPads don't have much storage.
