Notes
The Viking Compact PowerPack was advertised as a 12,000 mAh battery, but it tested at only 23% of it’s advertised capacity. It’s relatively low Specific Energy and Energy Density is mostly due to a large plastic case containing the cell pouches, charge circuitry and an LED light source and switches. It’s four LiFePO4 pouch cells allow it to deliver very high currents for a short period of time, since it’s advertised use is as a vehicle jump-start battery. For this purpose it is supplied with a set of car battery clamps.
