Please feel free to move to where you feel appropriate Steve as it appears it's a huge series.

Good to know.

The Axiom runs about 16 hours on a charge. I found a single large USB charging brick will get me through an entire week in the field. Just plug the USB-C cable into the detector and brick every night, good to go in the morning.

This was one of the largest capacity compact bricks I could find at the time, 30,000 mAh / 111 wh Weighs 1.36 lbs. I have had this a couple years, you can get even better ones now, that have direct USB-C fast charging.

Do put put bricks like these in an airline carry on unless you want to get delayed. It exceeds normal airline carry on restrictions, and requires prior approval before taking on board.

Size limits: Lithium metal (non-rechargeable) batteries are limited to 2 grams of lithium per battery. Lithium ion (rechargeable) batteries are limited to a rating of 100 watt hours (Wh) per battery. These limits allow for nearly all types of lithium batteries used by the average person in their electronic devices. With airline approval, passengers may also carry up to two spare larger lithium ion batteries (101–160 Wh) or Lithium metal batteries (2-8 grams). This size covers the larger aftermarket extended-life laptop computer batteries and some larger batteries used in professional audio/visual equipment.

I have had great luck with all my Anker USB-C products, I have several, this is the bank I’ll be purchasing for my Axiom. They have very large banks that can also charge your laptop in camp.

I like Anker products, of the less costly alternatives out there Anker makes the best in my opinion. Their "POWERLINE" charging cables are very robust...

I’m also an Anker fan, been happy with their products.
