Extreme Lights batteries are very good. I bought three of them for TransBaviaans but have lately been using them for powering video cameras for long durations.

Gents, recently bought a bike light from Evobikes that comes with USB cable attached. Where can I get a battery/power bank for this light?

I have one of these that I carry as a backup light on long bikepacking trips. Interestingly, some powerbanks run them and others don't. It is a bit of trial and error to find one that does the job. My wife has an Apple powerbank that definately works. My Romoss powerbank does not run it. Something to do with the allowed resistance apparently??? I would take it to a powerbank shop and try the various options out if I were you. They all work for about a minute and then some switch off, so when you test them, give it a couple of minutes each.

Just get a normal powerbank, take a water bottle and make a hole in the lid, add powerbank to bottle...all you need

That’s a good idea! How many mah should I get to last around 3 hours at least?

Thanks for mentioning that, I would have just assumed a power bank is pretty much a power bank except for output voltage and current.

Romoss Sense 6+. Absolute powerhouse. Charges everything without sweat including a Macbook if you're in a pinch. It was the only one that worked to charge a Canon EOS RP and Fuji XT3.

Which model do you have?
