Harley Benton PowerPlant Powerbank

I'm not a big user of guitar effects, but there are some things you do need. Not knowing much about effects pedals I decided to invest in a Mooer multi-effects unit with a view to learning what would actually be of use to me. It's really rather good but it comes with an external power supply and a cable that's only about 1m long, so it's pretty inconvenient.

I decided to see if I could get around the problem of being tethered to the wall by using a battery pack. The HP Powerplant is an ideal solution and I can now put the Mooer anywhere I want and not be constrained by the location of power outlets.

The Powerbank came partially charged and powered up the Mooer immediately with absolutely no hassle. It comes with a very comprehensive set of connectors. For my purposes I would have liked one very short connector but I can live with the longer ones provided.

Recharging it was easy except that the USB cable is so short that it didn't reach from the power outlet to the floor or desktop. I had to prop up the battery pack on a couple of books.

The battery life and recharging time are perfectly adequate for my needs.

So far it seems like a good solution to my problem and my next step will be to devise a way of putting the Mooer and the Power bank into a single housing for convenience (sounds a bit like a pedal board :) )

I tested:
2x Zoom MS100BT (500 mAh Max each)
RC-3 (70 mAh Max)
Harley Benton DI pre amp 110 mAh)
Relay G10 via USB

All connected at the same time.
I could get about 4h from the HB power bank.

Now here comes the cool part: I have an extra RavPower power bank with 10.000 mA capacity that I connected while the Harley benton power bank was in use and the extra power bank was actually charging up the harley benton unit. No overheat, no worrying temperature noted at all.

I'm gonna run another endurance test with both power banks fully charged and see how long all the gear stays up. If I can get 7 or 8 hours I'm set. If not, I really don't mind getting an extra HB power bank.

I also tried the HB power bank with the Boss RC-3 for 6h and the power bank had the exact same power before all those hours working.

Points in favor:

- Ease of use, problem free
- Can be charged while providing power (this is a big plus, you can just daisy chain to an extra power bank)
- No shenanigans, no temperature issues. Just works.
- Sound signal was perfectly clean.
- Slim form factor, you can slide it under your pedalboard.
- Extra torch light is a nice touch. Also the way to turn it on.
