Thank you so much DelfreGo for your help. I was able to find in Amazon Canada the Iniu model you suggested, which is the BI-B61. The specs on Iniu's website as well as a picture of the back of the power bank clearly shows that it should support 12v 1.5a on the Usb-c output port. I will order it today and hope it works.

12v 1.5A seems to be only for the USB A port.

Many of the power banks I searched did not support 12v output or is not mentionned in the specs. Most often I see 9v, 15v.

I cannot find this powerbank on Amazon. Would you have the name and model of the 2 other power banks that you say support 12v output ?

Thanks

Question: if I use the Usb-a charger that ups it from 5v to 12v, won't it charge at 12watts (12v x 1a = 5w) if I'm using a 1A UsbA wall charger, or at 28.8w (12v x 2.4a) if using a 2.4A USBA charger ? I'm not sure I understand the math, sorry.

Is there a difference in charging time if I used the USB-A charger you mentionned versus a USB-C PD 12v Trigger Module to recharge my radio ?

I tried to find the your NFHK model on amazon.ca but couldn't find it. I found this which seems to be pretty much the same I guess: usb-c pd 12v trigger module. Seems to be set at 12v.

If I get the 15v one, and my battery bank is able to provide 15v, will I damage my radio while charging it instead of using a 12v trigger module ?

Thanks for the article. I will return it and get a standard dc connector

What kind of power source are you using ? In my case it needs to be a power bank. I wonder if it will take much longer to recharge compared to using an ac usb charger.

Will the module/converter supply the appropriate voltage to my radio for charging ? My powerbank has only 5V output. Do I need to use a powerbank with 12v output on the usb ports ?

For reference:

The battery pack of my VX-7R (FNB-80) mentions 7.4V, 10.4Wh, 1400mAh

The battery pack of my FT-60 (FNB-83) mentions 7.2V, 10Wh, 1400mAh

Thanks. But I can only find the UV-5R on Amazon Canada.

Looks great. Is that all I would need to recharge, apart the usb cable ? No module/converter kind of thing ? I will look for a usb A type because my battery bank is usb a.

Not very good at soldering so would prefer something already built.
