Pd power bank? Maximum capacity with percentage battery remaining.

[413x]

Thought this the best forum section.
Mods please move if appropriate.

My trusty power bank gave out on its final ask over holiday. I was charging for the flights home and found the USB cable basically fused to the power bank.
Not sure if a dodgy cable or bank.

Now. I need a new one.
I want PD. So it can charge my surface book. But wattage doesn't need to be high.
I want max capacity.
A percentage battery remaining would be more useful than 4 lights. It's always the last light that's tricky to gauge.


Suggestions?

How much power does your surface book draw? Would it charge on "only" 20W?

Lidl currently selling an absolute steal of a powerbank. 20,000mah, PD / USBC. For £20.

They're often kept behind the counter / in the stock room - so you might have to ask. I managed to pick one up for my son.

I've had a few Lidl powerbanks. All been terrific quality with genuine capacity - much better than anything I've bought from any auction / online market place kind of site.

Not what you are looking for (although it does have a percentage indicator)

I'm just shocked such things even existed and had to share it with someone

Imagine trying to get on the plane with that!

I may have to get another of what I had.

Seems 30W are hard to come by. Which I think I need
