(View all)you do realize how huge/heavy one with 20,000 mAh would be right?
I’m afraid this is a toaster fridge situation. This thing is a wall charger doubling as a Power Bank, and I’m afraid that the heat from charging will damage the battery inside. Not to mention the small size of the battery inside.10k would have been nice, but this is bulky enough as is.
Also, I have about a dozen battery chargers and only one of them is 20,000 mAh. Most are in the 4-13k range.
In most of the time (except long travels) you don't need to bring the wall charger with you all the time.
The Mophie USB-C XXL is a 20000mAh battery and weighs 390g. Yes it's about 140g heavier but it provides 3 times the battery.
They are just fine.
I’ve been purchasing Mophie products since they pioneered the juice pack for the iPhone 4 and they’ve grown by leaps and bounds since then ( my iPhone XS Max I’m sending this from has the juice pack Access on it now. I wouldn’t worry about their longevity. They are rock solid just like their products.Not sure exactly what your point is because this is a mammoth with only 6,100 mAh.
see post below yours... it's not just a battery pack, thus it requires more circuitry/insides.also, it's not THAT mammoth:
It's basically just a little longer than the 60 watt Apple charger

I'd use this for business travel mostly, wouldn't be an every day carry battery for me.

this Anker one is $99 and is only 5000 mAh and has no wireless charging fwiw:https://www.apple.com/shop/product/HMQD2ZM/A/anker-powercore-fusion-power-delivery-battery-and-charger?fnode=85
trade off is it can charge USB-C laptops at 30W, but still not exactly cheap, especially for Anker who is known for much more affordable stuff than Mophie.
