I used to use Anker powerbanks and have switched to Nitecore. Took the 10k on a rugged 2-week backpack with zero issues of durability. https://www.nitecorestore.com/power-banks-s/3948.htm

Can't advise on the iPad Pro - I take my Macbook Air M1 13". weighs 1lb more then the iPad Pro but I don't like rubbing my fingers all over the screen of an ipad. Also I don't need a hub and only take one 6" cable. I use the Apple USB-C to SD Card Reader to transfer images from the SD card to the Macbook Air 1TB SSD. I also back up to a SanDisk Extreme 1TB SSD using a 6" USB-C to USB-C cable (Macbook Air powers it) so I have duplicate files on the Macbook and Sandisk.

I really try to manage weight when traveling (carryover from UL backpacking) and I found the extra weight of the Macbook Air justifiable for my use.

I use C1 at home and C1 allows an additional computer to be licensed but I found I prefer to do other things while traveling then PP images

You always seem to be traveling to some neat destinations ... looking forward to some images.


Thank you ! I can get around the fingers on the screen with the use of the Apple Pencil (assuming it works in colder temps, though that's not an issue for these trips). I'll fork out for the cables you suggested - mine are pretty old but I'll see what comes in the box first.

My pack is already over 20kgs (3-6 weeks trips means more gear of course) so although I pour over UL backpacking sites it's rare I find anything applicable to my uses. As photographers we always have way too much weight (even though I've done my best to lower it by using lighter lenses, tripod, bag etc)!

I've been working on my website (Shanghai's Watertowns the newest page) but anyway the drop down menu will give you a lost of the many image pages if you wish to waste a few minutes ! Copy/paste thedragonsfather.com into a new tab or hit the WWW link below. I don't post many images here now because I've stopped using Smugmug (when I set up my own website) and it's not as easy to link to images on the website.

Cheers !
