Regarding waterproofing — or at least water resistance — if the manufacturer claimed its power bank was designed to meet a specific rating, we tested it. However, it wasn't a universal test because most power banks aren't rated to get wet and definitely not to be submerged.

What is a power bank & why do you need one?

Power banks are physical stop gaps that prevent dreaded cases of DPS (dead phone syndrome). Whether you forgot to plug it in overnight or you've been traveling all day without access to an outlet, these are a lifeline for you and your portable electronics.

What makes a power bank durable?

Is a Goal Zero a good power bank?

Though these small devices are great for charging small devices on the go, they aren't suitable for larger devices like laptops. The Goal Zero Sherpa 100PD ($250) is larger than most power banks on this list. It weighs 1.5 pounds, and it won't fit in a pocket.

Can a power bank get wet?
