Fast charging light power bank

Want to buy a power bank , minimum 10,000 mah . I bought the 20,000 mah  one from Argos but it was very heavy . I like to put it in my bag if I’m going out from work in the evening . Am unable to buy from amazon as they don’t post to Northern Ireland . Looking a light weight one if there is such a thing . Thanks

    I can't work out from the website if they ship to NI, but have a look at Anker, the nano power bank might be what you're looking for

    I would second this option - Anker are a great company and make very affordbale, reliable stuff for a fraction of the big brand prices.  You're not going to get much joy in the weight department though - they are essentially batteries taped up in a pack with a USB-C charging port.  To get 10000mAh you need the required number of batteries inside, which are heavy.  Even modern li-ion ones are not much lighter than traditional ones.
