Hey guys, I am in the market for a portable monitor for raspberry pi 3 b+, as well as a powerbank to power both at once. My budget is around $500. Please answer with any recommendations. Cheers. ---

You can’t go past the [official touch screen](https://core-electronics.com.au/pitft-7-touchscreen-display-for-raspberry-pi.html) and the [PiJuice HAT](https://core-electronics.com.au/pijuice-hat.html) is an excellent battery solution for the Pi. ---

Thanks for the advice. I will look into the power supply. But for a monitor I was more looking for an independent monitor connected via hdmi. Again thanks for the power supply πŸ™‚ ---

Also, will the pijuice fit into the official raspberry Pi case along with the pi? ---

There is this [7 inch one that connects to the hdmi](https://core-electronics.com.au/hdmi-7-800x480-display-backpack-without-touch.html). I think it is a little too tall, but there is a [case made for the PiJuice](https://core-electronics.com.au/pijuice-short-case.html) ---

Will the PiJuice be enough to power the monitor as well, and for how long? ---

Yeah the PiJuice can provide enough power for the pi and monitor you would probably get about a 2-3 hours off a charge with the default 1820mAh battery.
