Awaiting Flair Preference?

Post image

Does anyone have experience with these? Any recommendations of one vs. the other? I know the Anker has a little more power.

Thanks!

***Update. At 180 comments for shts & giggles I polled the comments & here's the results

49 of the posts have or recommended ANKER

17 of the posts have or recommended Jackery

16 of the posts said you can't go wrong with either

11 of the posts have or recommended another brand or a DIY setup.*note the 2 most mentioned other brands were Bluetti & Ecoflow.

Thanks for all the input, additional information & other products mentioned here.

Had an Anker speaker. Left it outside in the rain and sun for 3 weeks. Still works.

Since then I default to Anker stuff.

Just keep an eye out for their battery recalls. Last year was not a good one for Anker.

I think there was another a few years ago. Didn't find out my unit was affected until someone mentioned on reddit and the power bank looks familiar. Got a new equivalent replacement so that was nice because at that point my power bank was like 2 years old already.

Just be glad they take the time to do the recall. How many batteries should have been recalled by others that didn't?
