Nitecore is somewhat accepted as the best lightweight battery, but they aren't cheap.

10Ah battery is $60, 5.9oz. the 20Ah is 10.2oz and $100. Unlike the Hasbro, it comes close to its rated specification.

My backpacking trips have definitely not needed 20Ah. For two or three nights I can usually get by with a 5000mah, if I shutdown at night and frequently use airplane mode. And my phones are usually getting on, don't have Greta battery life.

I've made it with 10Ah as well but carrying cameras and such it is nice being able to charge stuff up and also have battery enough to power my headlamp at night. I can understand why people want more charge.
