Vent: My only power bank died during a 9-hour bus ride in Guatemala

It was a cheap one I bought in Antigua, and my laptop hit 2% right as we hit a massive traffic jam. Anyone have a bombproof brand they swear by for long trips?

Man, that's the worst feeling. It's like we're all just one dead battery away from our whole plan falling apart. You see it everywhere now, people scrambling for outlets in airports or cafes. We built this whole digital life but the power part is still so fragile. Makes you wonder how we got so dependent on such flimsy gadgets.

Wait, you were trying to charge a laptop with a cheap power bank? That's the real problem here.
