Has anybody ever used a power bank with a 12V PD câble to power a small TRX outdoors (in my case : Xiegu X6100) ?

The point is related to the possible SMPS noise.

My other option is a LiFePO4: no noise !

But for a lower weight (650g vs a 750g), I can have a 27Ah (27000mAh) power bank vs a 6Ah LiFePO4 battery.

Also, a power bank has many uses outdoors : boost a weak smartphone battery or even power a T12 soldering iron.

All feedback welcome ! 🙂
