The Anker 737 is a robust power bank, measuring 4.6"x2.2"x2" and weighing 1.4lbs, making it more suitable for a travel bag or backpack than a pocket. It features two USB Type-C ports and one USB Type-A port, with the Type-C ports capable of delivering up to 140W. This allows for configurations like 140W on a single port or a combination such as 70W + 70W or 100W + 40W, depending on the devices connected.

For gaming handhelds, the Steam Deck requires up to 38W, the Asus ROG Ally up to 65W, the Asus ROG Ally X up to 100W, and the Nintendo Switch up to 18W. The Anker 737 can charge all these devices at their maximum rate, allowing for simultaneous play and charging.

A 20,000mAh battery translates to a 74Whr capacity. With an 80% power efficiency rating, you get about 59Whr of usable charge. This means the power bank can fully charge a Steam Deck or Asus ROG Ally (both 40Whr) about 1.5 times, an Asus ROG Ally X (80Whr) about 0.75 times, and a Nintendo Switch (16Whr) around 3.7 times. This highlights why a 20,000mAh capacity is considered the minimum for power-hungry gaming handhelds like the Steam Deck and Asus ROG Ally, especially the Ally X.

The Anker 737 is TSA-approved

The TSA allows power banks under 100Whr in carry-on luggage, and the Anker 737, at 74Whr, fits this requirement. Although its size might prompt a check, it's been cleared without issues at multiple airports, including only once at Tokyo NRT.
