Best Powerbank for Nomad 7?
I have an older Nomad 7. I am looking for suggestions for a replacement for my non functioning Guide 10.
I tried my other powerbank bank on the USB output from the Nomad 7 in direct light I was charging at less than 2W. I can get 18W charging to this bank with a reasonable USB charger.
If a bank could utilize the Mini Solar port 6.5V 1.1A It might be able to charge faster?

Hi @Moremilk!
If the Batteries in the Guide 10 are past their prime you can replace them with any NiMH AA or AAA size batteries. Make sure to use 4 batteries of the same size, brand and charge level in the Guide 10 for best output results. Here are the replacements we sell:
- AA Rechargeable Batteries (4-Pack) – Goal Zero
- AAA Rechargeable Batteries (4 Pack) & Adapter – Goal Zero
The Nomad 7 has a max power output of 7W from all ports combined. You will not be able to get 18W out of it.
If you are looking for a new power bank, take a look at our Flip, Venture, Sherpa and Lighthouse products.
