I was gonna buy some 14k but you have to consider what you actually need and if you're okay with all that weight/bulk
unless the primary reason is for traveling/vacation or you need it to charge a laptop...you probably dont need more than 6k
the flashlight isn't an afterthought...whole thing is well put together. I'd rate ravpower up there with anker
3000mah will give you a full phone charge and enough for a tablet for an extended day

+1 for Anker
I like to use this one when Im on the go. comes with a built in micro usb charger and is about the size of samsung galaxy phone. Anker Astro Slim2 4500mAh External Battery
you can also get it in 6000 mAh if you need that extra juice
for something bigger, anything from the LIMEFUEL brand is pretty solid too.
both brands have pretty positive ratings on amazon

Looking for something that can charge like a laptop, specifically a MacBook Air. Don't think you can USB charge a laptop.

These start at $170 and you still need to add the magsafe adapter pushing it over $200. http://www.hypershop.com/HyperJuice/...ad-iPhone-USB/ |

i have 4 for them
the 1st one i got was a shitty.crap one (i dun even know how big it.is)
2nd one was a 5200 from haima (i think thats it), i can have 2 full.chargers
3rd is free when i got a new phone, shit sucks & never use it as its only 1000
the current one im using is a 12000 which is more then enough for my xiaomi 3 as it saves a.lot.of bat
u dont.really need anything fancy if its just charging phones, my pincho (thats the name)12000 is just $20 cnd & im sure u can pick it up at the.night market

I have a Romoss (look carefully, too many fake ones out there) 10400mah power bank. It has 2 USB ports, one 2.1A and another 1A. It has been great for the 6month I have had it so far. Should be between 20~30 bucks for a legit one with Samsung cells.

Canada Computers
But they don't seem to carry it anymore. At least not the same model. Mine was "Sailing 4" and the model I can find now seems to be "Sense 4".
After looking into the difference a bit further, it seems that you'd need to find Sense 4"S" in order to get the Samsung cells.
A bit of explanation about why I feel it's a good product:
The 2.1A port actually outputs anywhere between 1.6~1.9A when I tested it out with my friend's USB voltage tester. While the 1A around 0.9A. So it actually delivers close to the advertised amperage of each ports and therefore charges your i-shits accordingly. Both ports tested with iPad Air.

Currently using one 12k mAh is pretty awesome. Is not that big about the size of a note 4.
