While I like Anker products, I believe the price is quite high for the capacity of the battery. However, if you need something like this, this should be a better product than some of the other products posted here which start with B — this is more likely to be close to advertised capacity (the other will be off by a good 20%), and keeps discharge to a relatively safe, and healthy for the battery ~1C max (<=1.2C if capacity is indeed 20Ah as advertised), whereas the other product will do over 2C, even 2.5C. This is a premium price for a solid product, I wish it was 25Ah (or even the FAA carryon limit of 27Ah = 100Wh @ 3.7V), but if you need one to charge laptops and will use it a lot, I'd pay the premium for a more solid product like this.

Odds are the battery will wear out before the cable does. Even if it doesn't, they have additional ports. These are reinforced cables, and I view them as a net positive.
I bought this Oct for the same price and I love it. It's bulky but that's what 20k mah is. Cable works great and it's nice to never have to carry a cable.
It hasn't been an issue, for me but I'm also relatively careful with my stuff. If anything the cable lasts longer since the only risk is when you're actively using it and you bend the cable. Otherwise because the cable is tucked in, it's quite nice.
For my use, I expect the cable to out last the battery degradation (2 or 3 years)

But at least Anker are honest about the mediocre 65% efficiency but this performance is junk. It means that you are carrying more weight and volume but you'll never ever be able to use it.

Veektomx is 88% $23
Ugreen 100w is 82% $55
These to name a few and there are many out there that are far better than 65%. Maybe do a bit of research. 65% is far unacceptable unless it's wireless charging.
