I have to get on a very long flight here soon for work with a layover in the middle, and I want to make sure my Deck is up to the task. Does anyone have a battery pack they love?

Also I hear you’re not supposed to use a battery pack while playing. Does that hold up, even in one-off events? (Usually I’m very protective of my battery)

    Keep in mind that flight regulations limit the capacity of the batteries you can take on a plane. I believe you can’t bring batteries above 20,000 mAh.

      Regulations limit the total battery energy you can carry on board, which would be measured in Wh. Usually the limit is 100Wh though some countries/airlines have different regulations for total vs individual capacities (e.g. max 200Wh total but each device cannot be over 100Wh).

      For regular Lithium-Ion cells which are usually 3.6 to 3.7V, 100Wh is around 27 000 mAh. Always check the battery cell voltage though, since it’s pretty easy to claim any mAh the company wants since it’s not really a measurement of anything tangible.
