As part of its October Prime Day sale, Amazon is offering Anker PowerCore 737 USB power bank for only $89.99. This portable battery has a immense capacity of 20,000 mAh and a powerful output of 140 W, but is still TSA certified. It can quickly charge your Steam Deck or ASUS Rog Ally from empty to full multiple times.

Anker PowerCore 737 can be used like any other power bank; perfectly copes with charging any standard mobile electronics. It has two USB Type-C ports and one USB Type-A port. One of the USB Type-C ports is bidirectional, which means you can utilize it to charge devices AND the power bank itself. The whopping 24,000 mAh is just under the 27,000 mAh TSA limit. I recently took this power bank on a trip to Japan. At the security checkpoint it was removed and the wattage was fully checked. It passed with flying colors and I managed to get through security with my power bank. Due to its larger capacity, it weighs 1.4 pounds.
The Anker 737 is our pick for the best Steam Deck/ASUS ROG Ally charger
We chose the Anker 737 as one of our favorite portable chargers for Steam Deck and ASUS ROG Ally portable gaming devices. This is a unique charger for portable game consoles such as Steam Deck, ROG Ally and Switch. Both ROG Ally and Steam Deck suffer from miniature battery life when gaming on the go. During our Steam Deck review, we discovered that games like God of War and Spider-Man come out in under 2 hours. Ultimately, you’ll never utilize your Steam Deck or ROG Ally to its full potential unless you’re equipped with a decent portable charger. The Steam Deck accepts up to 38W of USB power, the ASUS ROG Ally accepts up to 65W, and the Nintendo Switch up to 18W. The Anker 737 could theoretically charge the Steam Deck, ROG Ally, and Switch at maximum charging speeds at the same time, but we wouldn’t recommend it, because thermal protection would kick in and limit the output power.
The Anker 737 power bank is TSA certified
TSA requires power banks to be in carry-on baggage only (they cannot be carried in checked baggage). Power banks must have a capacity below 27,000 mAh or 100 Wh. The Anker Power Bank’s 24,000 mAh capacity is lower than the TSA limit of 27,000 mAh at 100 Wh, making it safe and sound to carry on board planes. If a TSA official actually takes the initiative to check the strength of your power bank, you have no doubts.
This is certainly one of the best Steam Deck and Nintendo Switch deals available for October’s launch day, and it’s definitely worth considering if you find yourself running out of power too often.
