Looking for a dependable power bank suitable for field use lasting 2-4 hours on a Dell Latitude 7400 2 in 1. I’m avoiding specific brands unless necessary. Right now, Anker seems like the top choice. I don’t mind the price, just want something small enough to fit in a backpack.

Yes, you're interpreting it correctly. This would indeed be a 120V power bank, right? I see that the prices here are much higher than what you'd expect for a bigger battery for the device, and sometimes even more expensive than an entire new laptop. Most of these units aren't compact enough to fit in a backpack. The only one I found during a quick search that seems to match is this link: https://www.anker.com/products/a1710?var...rrency=USD... At around $200, I’d probably look for a higher amp hour battery and/or a converter for the cig plug in the vehicle.

Usb-c i think the connection should be enough, that's how it works at a work station. Here are a few I've seen, the first one isn't preferred lol. No vehicle charging options, we're in a Toyota distribution parking lot just collecting data from golf carts. The product just needs to add 2-4 extra hours of run time when I can't return to charge it.
