Hello fellow nerds,

I picked up the Haribo 20,000 mAH battery bank after hearing that its specs rivaled that of the Nitecore NB 20000 and the Carbo 20000 batteries. The Haribo battery beats it in weight, price, and has 22.5w fast charging (same as the Nitecore series). Paid $23 for it on sale.

So far the battery is doing what it claims to do: the fast charging works fantastically and was able to quick charge my DJI OSMO Pocket 3, iPhone, etc. It seems to only work when one port is being used (not two), but this was to be expected. The built in USB-C cord is able to fast charge, and I like the integration of it (so I don’t have to carry an extra USB c cord when traveling). For folks looking to shave even more weight: the USB cord features a fake gummy bear on it that maybe could be taken off (I haven’t tried it yet but it’s worth mentioning).

So far my tests seem to check out as far as its specs go, and given that it beats out carbon fiber batteries that are far more expensive options: for me it was an easy purchase. I’m excited to take it out on the trail more for trips that require over 20k mAH charging.

I have made an initial video about it here, and for folks that would rather read an article than watch a video, I’ve made an article too. I’m not sponsored, at all, by Haribo or Hong Kong DC Global. I’m just a nerd that likes to find more ultralight ways to travel into wilderness spaces while taking photos! Hoping this initial deep dive into the goofy gummy bear battery will be useful to some. Happy trails, y’all.
