Pros:
Delivers rated capacity. This device provided power for 27 hours sleep on my Z2 CPAP, better than others promising 28500 mAh and approaching the 30000 mAh devices.
Rugged: I think. At least it's a good brand and has solid shell.
Good USB-C PD power: I need 15volts USB-C PD and this unit delivered it for me. I power using a Jacobparts 15V trigger cable. The
Cons:
Heavy: It's heavy compared to others I tried -- e.g. the henhot HH-PB-05 weighed 19 oz compared to 23 oz for this device.
Expensive: again, compare to the Henhot which costs about $55 with coupon while the Sherpa cost $200. Another reasonable alternative is the Qbrand at about $43. I think the Sherpa is built better but not 4 times as much value as the others
Some useful stats:
- A 100% charge on the Sherpa 100 PD QI charged my Surfacebook 2 from 30% to 100% in just under two hours (while I was working. Took the Sherpa down to 0% ).
- Charging my Samsung Note 10+ from 20% to 100% took about an hour and 20% capacity of the Sherpa 100.
- Charging my Bose QC30s from dead to 100% took about 45 minutes and 6% of the Sherpa's capacity.
- Charging the Sherpa 100 using the Goal Zero Nomad 28+ Solar panel took about 14 hours with periodic adjustments to angle the panel to get the most direct sunlight. Note that as Goal Zero states, this is NOT a waterproof unit. Extra care should be taken to adequately protect the unit if you take it to the field. That's not to say it isn't a robust unit, its built very well, its just not waterproof like the Venture power units are.
- Charging USB-C to USB-C from the Goal Zero 45W wall charger took a few hours for a full charge.
- I have not had an opportunity to use the wireless charging. For me this just isn't a wow factor.
The Sherpa is true to the envelope dimensions and weight (I didn't look on Amazon, rather Goal Zero's website for this data). Overall I'm very pleased with this. For its size and mass, I think its a great addition to the EDC or professional pack. Having this extra power available in the simplest of form of the Sherpa is well worth the investment. I will ultimately buy another for my wife who also travels with her job.
While they had the market mostly cornered back then, and I really did enjoy my Venture 30, for instance, competitors have completely passed them by recently.
In particular, I was comparing this Sherpa to one of the Anker packs with similar battery capacity. With that comparison, here are the pros/cons of the Sherpa:
PROS
- love the LED readout of battery life
- very clear markings on the ports, removing the guesswork of input/output/rates on other devices
CONS
- heavier - I didn't throw them on a scale, but it felt much heavier side by side
- drastically bigger casing (not sure what's up with that)... as in over 200% the volume
- significantly more expensive, at over 2x the cost
Disappointed ultimately, and given the size/heft, it went back... no one wants to add this much weight/bulk to their backpack when alternatives are lighter, smaller, and far cheaper (while providing the same/faster charging).
Top reviews from other countries

First things first. Goal Zero isn't known for their power banks - it's best known for its Yeti line of off-grid power storage units, which can be charged either via the wall or in conjunction with solar panels. As you can guess by now, Goal Zero products are not cheap relative to the competition. I'll get to that later.
The Sherpa 100 PD is the cut-down version of the flagship Sherpa 100 AC, which was what I originally wanted: 2x USB-C PD 60W, configurable as input/output/both; 2x USB-A 12W; Qi 5W wireless charging; 8mm DC input, and onboard AC inverter for powering other small electronics requiring "wall" power. Unfortunately, I waited a few weeks too long and the product page no longer exists. Besides, $400 CAD for the 100 AC is a lot of money - one can buy a 200Wh+ power pack for about the same amount of cash. Compared to the flagship, 100 PD loses one USB-C port, 8mm DC input and inverter; its two USB-A ports are limited to 17W shared.
Size and weight aren't issues. It's a 95Wh power bank, after all. It's big. It's heavy. These are totally expected.
Compared to the competition, its feature set is spartan - some might even call it bare-bones. Wireless charging is there, it just isn't the 7.5W, 10W, even 15W like you might expect. USB-C offers the standard Power Delivery 2.0 profiles: 5V/3A 9V/3A 12V/3A 15V/3A 20V/3A; it's also the only way you can recharge this power bank, and a high-power USB-C PD charger is not included (granted, most other power banks don't include one either). A USB-A to USB-C cable is bundled, not C-to-C... that's disappointing. There are NO SUPPORT for Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0/3.0, Samsung Adaptive Fast Charge, or any other proprietary charging protocols. The USB-A ports are bunched too close to the USB-C port. Large, direct-plug cables/adapters e.g. some Apple Watch chargers are out of the question, as you'll be unable to use any other ports (besides Qi) simultaneously.
Internally, it uses the familiar 18650 cells of years past, rather than the new 21700 cells that are increasingly showing up on recent power banks and even some flashlights. Also, one pretty big usability note: although this power bank does turn off automatically after an extended period of inactivity, it is advisable to press the power button next to the USB-A ports to turn the power bank OFF after you've finished using it to charge other devices.
Couple all that with the price - it was $229.99 when I bought mine - and it seems like a bad deal. Why don't I buy a 99Wh power bank for $80 shipped with same-day Amazon Prime from one of those Bestsellers instead?
That is where the recharge issue comes in.
You see, recharging a high-capacity power bank is kind of like recharging an electric vehicle. Sure, that EV may have a realistic 200-mile range and does 0-60mph in under 5 seconds, but their recharge speed just isn't that great. If you don't have access to a Level 2 or better charger, you'd have to leave the car plugged into the wall overnight.
Most power banks have eye-popping max charge speeds e.g. advertise how they can power up to 15" laptops requiring 60W. Then you look at their recharge (input) speed and find out they're stuck at 30W max. Now, 30W recharge is a LOT better than what they used to be even 5 years ago, when it's common to find power banks recharge at just 10W, with more premium ones doing 12W, QC 2.0 18W, or dual 10W input. The best ones require dedicated wall-warts and DC barrel plugs. But honestly, max output 60W, max input 30W, all via USB-C... come on guys, that's not great.
The 100 PD isn't like that: its max input is the same as its max output at 60W. I'm currently recharging it with the Aukey PA-D5 (2-port USB-C PD w/ GaN charger, 60W 1-port or 18W+45W). Plugged in at 12 AM with 11% remaining on its numeric LCD display. It's about 75 minutes in and it's now showing 80%, drawing the full 60W single-port output all this time. It would take another 60-90 minutes to finish the last 20%, which is fairly normal.
Through-charging is supported. Yes, you can recharge other devices via the USB-A ports on the 100 PD, while the power bank itself is being recharged via USB-C. Not many power banks do this.
So... is the 100 PD worth it? The answer depends on how much you value your *time*, because remember, $230 is not a low price for a 90Wh-100Wh power bank. To me, I can drive my gasoline-powered car to a gas station, fill up the tank to full, go inside the gas bar for a cup of Timmy's Double Double, and be all done in 15 minutes flat; I can't say the same for EVs yet. Likewise, a power bank that can recharge to full in 2-3 hours rather than 6-8 is a big deal; it offers unmatched flexibility in terms of when I need to plug it in to charge, so that by the time I unplug it's ready to use. That *time saved* is worth a lot more than the $230 asking price, and forms the basis of my 4-star rating.
