Extended use of mobile devices

My 1300mAh power bank  recently died.  It lasted two years and was frequently used.  

I replaced it with a 3000mAh power pack which has three USB ports, a flashlight and a digital readout of the capacity percentage.

I use the power bank most often on my $10 boom box which I hook to my motorcycle.

Power outages are quite frequent during the rainy season. The power bank extents the use of various USB devices from mobile phone, portable wifi, headsets and fans
