I'm thinking of doing an all day shoot with my MP. I have three batteries and don't really want to buy anymore.
What do you use to charge on the go. I have the car charger but I won't be near my car.

Suggestions please

I have a Smatree powerbank for my MA. Can load three simultaneously plus RC. I loaded six batteries (20-25 % down) and the bank is still half loaded. Not cheap, but if you wanna fly the whole day...

Have any Mavic Pro friends that might lone you their batteries for day?   Possibly for a few Brewskies.

Harbor Freight has a small 800 W Generator for around 90 bucks that will do the job but it's 20lbs. to lug around and it's a little noisy...works for me, but again heavy and noisy and oh yes it needs gasoline.

No worries it should get you at least a couple charges for each battery.  Enough to keep you going out there.

I think AC outlet power banks are best for this situations only thing is we need to keep the current and voltage rating in required range.
I have reviewed few AC power banks but not sure about Drones requirements so need to check on the AC adapter what current rating are provided.
