Portable power packs/chargers?

Lot so. Amazon, which will allow you to charge an iPhone a number of times. Would these also allow charging of my camcorder, go pro and Fuji x100t as they can all be charged by usb.

Yes, as long as the available current is high enough. If you get one with a charging socket suitable for an iPad then it should be able to do just about anything.

My lad bought one of these, about the size of a small table, (mini ipad, nexus) slightly fatter

Used it for 4 days D of E to charge everything. I like the idea of a % charge display.

I have an excellent TP Link model which is compact, powerful, well-made and holds it's charge for a decent length of time:

I've just bought http://www.amazon.co.uk/20000mAh-Ul...21917&sr=8-8&keywords=usb+battery+power+20000

To sum it up, it's very good! It deoes however have some downsides. It weighs a lot - seriously for a relatively small device it's very surprising however it does its job very well. I was on a coach to Paris and took my iPhone and iPad. The iPad had a little charge whilst the phone had two charges. Also charged a friends iPhone up too (it has 2 USB ports) and it still had a little charge left in it. What I do love about this one is that it gives you a percentage of how much charge is left although how accruate it is I'm not sure as it was on 98% and I unplugged it. It immediately went up to 100%. For 25 quid you can't go far wrong.

I have the 40w power version of this one and been pleased with it. Normally used to top up my phone and tablet but can be used to feed a GoPro on a long time lapse. http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00PK1MADE?psc=1

It comes with an 18 month warranty and has decent reviews.

The Anker ones on Amazon get excellent reviews.

No problems charging phones, tablets, gopro etc. on the move with this:

Plenty of capacity and high charge rate.

I'm building up quite a collection of these beasties. I'm hooked on the multi-function versions. I have a couple that double-up as hand warmers (excellent for doing archery when it's a bit chilly) and one that can be set up as a WiFi device with an SD reader.
