With a power bank, you can charge your smartphone and other devices during your vacation. But what's the best power bank for your trip? This depends on the type of trip you're going on. At a festival, a small power bank is useful. But it's convenient to be able to charge multiple devices at the same time during a long camping trip. We're happy to help you choose the right power bank for traveling.
Choose a good power bank for traveling
Always choose a power bank that's suitable for the type of trip you want to go on.
- Festival: choose a small, light power bank

- Backpacking: choose a sturdy outdoor power bank
Power banks for a festival
The best power bank for a festival is a small model that's easy to take with you. These small power banks fit in the pocket of your pants or in your bag. You can carry the power bank with you all day long during the festival without a problem. Most small power banks have a 10,000mAh capacity. This allows you to fully charge your smartphone 1 to 2 times. Are you looking for a larger power bank because you're going to camp at the festival, for example? Check out the power banks for camping.
Power banks for at the campsite
As a power bank for at the campsite, we recommend a larger 20,000mAh power bank. You often bring more stuff with you on a camping trip. Take a 20,000mAh power bank with you while camping and charge multiple devices at the same time. For example, your e-reader, earbuds, or headphones and tablet. Do you camp in a more luxurious way and do you want to bring your laptop? Bring a large laptop power bank for in your camper or tent and charge all your electric devices.
Power banks for backpacking
Which power bank you need for backpacking depends on the type of trip you're going to make. Do you want to go out into the wild, maybe even for a couple of days? Bring a sturdy outdoor power bank in your hiking backpack. These power banks are waterproof and can withstand impact. You can also charge solar power banks via the sun. Do you sleep in hotels? You don't need a sturdy hiking power bank. Choose a regular 10,000mAh power bank and charge your devices during the day.
