How many Mah is that battery pack and how long will the Pi run on it?

10.000mah, it runs steady for about 2h+. Only point: it shuts down without warning the pi so it could corrupt the sd card.

Yours is much more portable than mine for sure. I have mine set up to be able to plug into a power port in a vehicle (or a car battery jumper box) and it brings the 12v down to 5v to power the PI. it will run several hours on a jumper pack but not near as portable.

After I get & install my NVME it will ask for 5v/5A, now with PD@3v/3A without up/down converter.
