USB power bankRuns the Fold, or charges the FM-1, away from a wall socket. INIU's slim 10,000 mAh kept the Fold running in rig 1, but it has sold out; the link is INIU's current slim one, untried. Look for one that stays on at a small load.

USB-C data cableFor a computer: USB-C to USB-C, or USB-A to USB-C. Check it's sold for data, not charging only. These two, from Anker and Amazon Basics, both carry data.

The skins are designed, printed and cut by me, Stephen Cummins. They aren't made or endorsed by M-VAVE. The pictures are mock-ups: each skin laid over a photo of the case, recoloured for the other colours. Colours on screen are a guide; on vinyl they print a little softer.
