Monitor-based goggles are a very nice way to get into FPV flying without breaking the bank.
But if you do not get an AiO pair of goggles that has a built-in battery or at least come with one (and possibly a suitable charger), you will certainly need a pair to enjoy your flights without worrying about the battery running out.
Why not power your goggles with a 5V power bank and use it to charge your phone or even your micro quad's batteries as well?
By using a DC to DC Step-up (booster) board, you can increase the voltage of your power bank to a voltage suitable for your goggles and take advantage of a small sized high capacity power supply.
This is GUICK GUIDE: How to power your FPV Goggles from a 5V Powerbank, featuring the Quanum V2 Pro DIY FPV Goggles. Let's go!

These goggles are used with an LCD5802D FPV monitor with diversity receiver and battery built-in. It is mounted on a studio light stand along with the powerbank and the goggles are connected via the cable harness. This way the goggles remain very lightweight, the reception is good and the overall setup is fairly light and portable.
