Hello 'cumbrianswinger' ::g I'm not a Deus user but as so many are, I would have thought those individuals probably use a 'cig lighter' charger overnight when attending a rally. Hope you get the definitive solution soon. Cheers. Regards ss47

A decent size powerbank would work fine but car cig lighter usb is the general way to go.

Yes power banks are absolutely safe. But get a good one if you want to charge the full kit, or alternatively you'll need more than one to have enough power for everything.

I don't know about you but my cigarette lighter only works with the engine on. So if I'm driving that's great but useless if I was camping. Some people invest in a solar power pack (solar panels you put in the windscreen attached to a battery) or a leisure battery set up (basically a massive power pack) with 3 pin plug sockets built in. If you camp regularly then it's worth investing in one of these but a cheap phone back up charger would be fine for occasional use ::g

when I used to go on rallies I would charge mine up frequently by using the USB connection in my car take the connection out of the deus 3 pin plug and put it into the USB port , it was a bit fiddly as the charging cables aren't that long but it quickly charged everything ::g
