MacRumors Giveaway: Win a 30,000mAh 90W USB-C Power Bank From RAVPower

When I bought my RavPower 15,000mAh they had a free USB-C PD charger offer. Don't know if they're still doing it but USB-C is universal and common by now. You can even get USB-C charger at Ikea which is known for their quality for less than half of Apple's 30W USB-C charger.
$19.99 https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/askstorm-40w-usb-charger-dark-gray-80461200/

Never participated in one of these, but these power banks are handy as I have an Anker 21000ish.
Would use my iPad power brick to charge overnight. Don’t have any use though for the PD port.

You know, I'm a bit bothered by the statement that it "propels a MacBook Pro from 0% to 50%". I don't want anything propelling my laptop.
Sure. I often take the charger that came with the computer. And if I had a battery like this I'd use the same charger to charge it. What's your point?
My recent (November) purchase included the charger – Anker PowerCore+ 26800mAh PD 45W with 60W PD Charger
same I bought my Anker PowerCore III Elite 26k 60W and it came with the PowerPort Pod 65W charger.
Yeah - this would be a killer deal in a second if they only reduced it slightly down to 26,800 mAH so I could travel with it. Traveling is the time I most need battery power.
Maybe they could introduce a version for Air travel? They still have time before people start using airplanes again...
okay I know the TSA rules for battery size but has anyone actually ever been caught with a larger battery? I feel like the average TSA screener wouldn't know what to look for let alone read the specs and size of the battery.Yeah - this would be a killer deal in a second if they only reduced it slightly down to 26,800 mAH so I could travel with it.

What you bought is a bundle, that bundles the two together... you can buy the same power bank with no charger for much cheaper. That is hardly the norm, and an extreme outlier. The fact that both of you purchased almost the same bundle and are the only ones who have said they got a charger with theirs on this thread proves that
I knew that they sold the lower models as a stand alone model and have seen them in stores (target, Walmart) but not the higher wattage chargers. I learned something new today!
