You can go to eBay, and buy the USB unit and the batteries and make something superior and cheap.
Search for 18650 usb in eBay, you will get the usb unit for 18650 batteries. Then get the wattage you need. For instance I bought 3400 watts batters for of them, for a total of over 12000 watts under all together.

Never even thought of doing this. Have plenty of 18650 batteries laying around from disassembled laptop batteries. Thanks for the idea.

How does recharging them work, most of the ones I saw had inputs on them so I assume you can recharge with the batteries in the case?

Please don't make your own and take it on a plane. LiIons need charge regulators and protection circuits. You're much better off buying one than doing this.
