That's a moot point though, IMO. Like if you're travelling, wouldn't it be nice if your charger and your battery bank were the same device? Just because it doesn't have the same specific utility as a UPS, doesn't mean that it's not useful in other ways.

Like this? https://www.anker.com/products/a1621 https://www.anker.com/products/a1621 There’s a lot of these devices. “Wall plug power bank” worked as good keywords for me on Amazon. These could still be different in operation than a UPS though
- dude3 4y agoI tried this it does provide power like a ups but it cuts out for a moment and restarts the device.
