So what LOL it still works very well and is a lot cheaper then a PD power pack. 1 hour and 10 minutes is not bad for that thing. Considering I got it on sale for 16 dollars I am very happy with it.

Saw this in the user guide:
'About USB-PD power banks: Parrot does not recommend users to invest in a USB-PD power bank, as not all of them support USB-C to USB-C charging of ’s battery. Indeed, due to the nature of the USB-C technology, some USB-PD power banks recharge on ’s smart battery, rather than the other way around.'
Why not put a car battery in a waterproof box?Thanks for your suggestions. We will be in large rafts and not crowded, 16 of us in six 18 foot rafts, so there is room for a panel to lay flat on the back. One person will be on the oars rowing and the others just riding along. The river twists and turns so it would be difficult to keep the panel angled towards the sun, but perhaps a passenger could tend to it. During the day we will be on the river and camping on the banks at night. We will be in deep canyons much of the time so the best light will be mid day when we are on the river. Much of the trip will be relatively calm water but there will be more than 80 big rapids in 280 miles. The solar panel would have to survive being splashed or dunked. We would have to stow it as we approach the larger rapids.
At camp, in the evenings, we would have a few hours of light before the sun drops behind the canyon walls and in the mornings perhaps an hour of sun before we hit the river again.

We did the trip in March of last year. I took a couple of power banks and a 60 watt folding solar panel. These worked well to keep my devices charged. One other person in our group provided an 80 watt solar panel and also a 12v lawnmower battery in a waterproof box. We only used the solar panels when at camp. The battery was hardly used.Why not put a car battery in a waterproof box?
Put a car battery in a waterproof case. Internet says: A fully charged 200 amp-hour battery will, in theory, deliver 20 amps for 10 hours or 2 amps for 100 hours. The charger draws 0.3 amps, so the battery will run the chargerfor a maximum of 666 hours ((20/0.3) amps * 10 hours). Due to inefficiencies in batteries, the actual time will be about 2/3 of this: 444 hours.

My Puridea PD 18W 20000mAh works fine.
You need a USB-C to USB-C cable for PD to work.
Often Powerbanks have to be activated (Button) to start charging.
