Thoughts on using a PowerBoost for charging devices while ca

Post by pixl8ed »

Thinking about using a PowerBoost and with 18650 Li-ion cells for charging devices (phone, GPS) while off the grid bikepacking for several days. (18650's because they're used by lighting systems)

Any thoughts on whether this sounds workable, "good idea", "you're crazy", or "DON'T DO IT!!!"?

We only recommend using our LiPo batteries with the PowerBoost. I don't know if the 18650 cells are compatible
