Is it safe to use an Apple Magsafe Battery Bank to charge my Leica  Q3 43 via a 3-4inch USB-C cable in my bag? Any issues with camera's internal circuitry or SD Card?

Thanks in advance

I personally wouldn’t plug my Leica into a usb-c cable while it’s in a bag regardless of which battery bank you’re using. It’ll likely get jostled around and damage the camera’s usb-c connection. I find a single battery lasts all day long, as long as you don’t need bluetooth/wifi connection constantly on, so no need to charge in the field.

I have travlled with a 20000 mah powerbank and charged my Q3 on the move. I would not do it in a backpack though. While on a long train ride I kept my Q3 and powerbank on the foldup tray table on the seat or in my lap.

I’ve wondered the same. I have an Anker MagGo that I keep in a small Wotancraft 3.5L bag next to my Q3 43. 
 

No issues so far. I am gonna assume it’s fine tbh.

No problem... I've been doing so. The only concern is if you're doing in an hot environment.

Anything involving charging gives out heat. Putting it in a bag stops that heat dissipating. 
I would not do this - I'd be scared of a fire - or heat damage to the devices.
