They’re very useful! I’ve got a few because of all my travels
A 10,000mah power bank should be sufficient to charge most phones 1.5-2.5 times. 10,000mah powerbanks are fairly cheap at Officeworks. The cheapest models are about $35, though I’d personally go up to the ~$50 ones and get a Belkin or Cygnet branded one, just because I have more experiences with those brands than the black and gold-esque Otto branded ones
20,000mah powerbanks are also quite widely available, and go for about $70 bucks and should be good for a days usage at least (assuming you’re chronically online and had a power guzzling phone), or even up to a week if you rationed your usage and keep it off while not in use. They are bulkier though, so it’s worth weighing up whether you think there’d be a situation you need that much power in, and if the weight and size is worth it
One last piece of advice (sorry, I know you didn't ask)
Regardless of what cables you currently charge your phone with, get a powerbank with USB-A, and USB-C ports. I’m still using my oldest power bank 6 years later and have upgraded phones twice since then. Back then I thought USB-C was for rich people, since my phone only had micro USB. Now I dislike USB-A cables and prefer USB-C to C cables, but I have a massage gun with a USB-C port that will only charge with an A-C cable, and my Fitbit still has a full size USB cable. Also if you’re with mates and want to let them borrow it etc, just easier
Yeah absolutely. I’ve got two solar panel power banks but they don’t have the right connection type after getting a new phone, and the adapter dongle things I bought don’t seem to work right
I’ve bought some from zyron. They’re massive capacity and really cheap. The only tradeoff is they’re not the most powerful. But you can go anker or ugreen if you need high capacity and enough power to charge something like a laptop
Zyron is a brand of powerbanks and chargers. I don’t know if they’re trying to expand into Australia or what, because their online store is generous with free postage and does deep discounts on sales
I’ve never heard of them, but it looks like they’ve got reasonably priced power banks. I am actually in the market for a larger capacity one myself, so depending on how long the sale lasts, I might try their 30,000mah one
I know the rec wasn’t aimed at me, but thanks for the recco anyway! I’m going to steal it

Did you mean to reply to me?
Also, what’s zyrtec
Yeah, adding on to what you were saying.
