Hi - I am in the market for a portable power pack to charge my sat nav, iphone and bike lights while on my LeJog next month. Most of them seem to need charging from a usb lead - which isnt great as I will be staying in B&BS but will not have access to a usb port to charge the pack.
1- does anyone know of one that comes with a mains power lead
2- can you just stick a plug on the end and charge in the mains still - like the plug off my I Phone for example.
these are the sort of things I am looking at

All you need to add to charge it is a USB charger from an iPhone, or any modern phone or whatever.
Any UK mains plug is a pain in the bum - but these are quite cool for touring:

Thanks! I was guessing they must be compatible with mains adapters but none of the reviewers make it clear ..... any recommendations on which pack to go for ....there are bloody hundreds of them - if not I will just go with the most popular one on Amazon0

No worries - I have several TeckNet ones for multi-day events. Work well and have a real on/off switch on them.0

cheers - they look decent from the reviews - think I will go with that0

Charge up my phone, lights, battery pack, 4iiii's straight off the mains and then via battery pack can keep the rest going until the next B&B.0
