I am likely to also purchase and change to the Nitecore Carbo 20000 mAh power bank during 2023, for when I want the greater capacity as there are a few features on this that appeal to me, not least that it is smaller and weighs less than 300g. These powerbanks do have quite pointy corners but are simply the lightest and probably best options there are for lightweight backpacking. Dimensions between generations are almost unchanged with weight increasing by just a gram for the 10k Gen 2. The second generation NB10000 saw few changes of real note but sufficient that I upgraded to it from the first iteration. I reviewed four of the Nitecore powerbank products in 2021 with a follow up review of the NB1000 Gen 2 in 2022. This is one of two Nitecore products- either the 151g Nitecore NB10000 Gen 2 (10k mAh), or 326g Nitecore NB20000 (20k mAh). My days of carrying a dedicated digital compact camera on trail seem to be well and truly over.Ī powerbank will almost always be accompanying me on trail. It is a good phone and takes a decent picture. I had continued to use the glass protective cover from my previous Olixar case but having smashed three on consecutive backpacking trips I couldn’t afford to continue with these so just use a flexible film on the screen now. This can be used with the 20g Quad Lock tripod mount that has a standard 1/4″ tripod thread, and can be attached to a small tripod. I used to have this encapsulated in an Olixar protective case (two together totalling 227g) but changed to a 46g Quad Lock case. While this pouch has a good deal of water resistance, I still keep it inside another waterproof bag inside the pack. This has good resistance to abrasion so is more suited to the angular edges of pins on a power adapter, power banks and cables than DCF or cheap-n-cheerful Ziplocs. This is made of Liteskin XPAC, a 70D polyester with a non-woven resin face. I keep the majority of my electronics in an 11g zippered rectangular pouch from Wild Sky Gear.
