I've not done battery life tests using the chargetech, but based on the speed at which it recharges my Wa8 I think a doubling if battery life should be possible depending on output listening levels and headphone impedance. Perhaps Woo Audio has done testing and can comment.
Incidentally Chargetech is about to release a unit with an even larger capacity with a current pre- launch pricing that is just over $200 usd. I may jump on that since it works wonderfully as a backup source for many applications. For example I use their current unit to make my liquid carbon "transportable" and does that ever work well!
I don't think the dc out solution will work as previously explained by Woo Audio, although I still struggle to understand why it would not. Assuming it cannot I really do like the suggestion from @bmichels. If that cannot be done then the Woo Audio supplied adapter with removable and shorter cords on both ends would be a great option to make the Chargetech to adapter to WA8 connection more "tidy".
Mm....yeah a more powerful Chargetech power outlet is in the works. Unfortunately, it is not an option for me since TSA prohibits the air transport of more than 27000 mah battery bank. With the exploding Samsung Note 7 fiasco, power banks are hot items as far as airport and airlines authorities are concerned. I think the new Chargetech model will be out very soon since the current 27000 mah model is now on sale direct from their company store (I paid discounted price of usd 165.00, with overseas shipping around usd 200.00 total).
