The well known Achilles heel of this otherwise respectable tablet is its battery life....

 

I'm trying to see if anyone out there knows of a powerbank that can charge this tablet via the USB-C port. I know it can be chaged using an Acer USB-C wall charger, but I want portable power.

 

Has enyone experimented with this? A basic power pack has no effect whatsoever.

Can anyone tell me if this is even possible?

 

Thanks

    I have tried a USB-C power bank and it does not work.  I believe it will only charge off of USB-C if the voltage is high enough, not off your normal 5v power bank.
