Power bank with AC outlet review | Updated RAVPower PD Pioneer 20000mAh 80W Power House (RP-PB054)

The RAVPower PD Pioneer 20000mAh 80W Power House isn’t your standard USB power bank. As well as a 30W USB-C USB Power Delivery port and a Qualcomm Quick Charger 3.0 18W USB-A port, it also has a standard plug socket. This AC outlet is designed for charging your laptop, but so long as you stay within its limits it has lots of other uses too. From making your Sonos speaker portable, to running a giant gym fan!

This versatility comes at a price - it costs around £80 or $80. After discussing its features, I’ll put its claims to the test, charging a whole range of devices, to try and establish if it’s worth its asking price to you.
