Other Need Advice: Best Power Bank for My Needs?

[Zork]

Hey everyone,
I'm looking to buy a power bank and would love some recommendations! Here's what I'm looking for:

• Capacity: 10,000mAh or 20,000mAh (still deciding)
• Fast Charging: Yes
• Brand Preference: Mi, Anker or any good brands
• Budget: ₹1000–₹2000
• Primary Use: Need it for an upcoming trip, and later for daily college commute and work travel.

I'm a bit torn between 10k and 20k mAh (inclined towards 20k)— 10k would be lighter and easier to carry, but 20k would be more useful during trips.
If anyone has experience with different models, especially regarding reliability and long-term performance, I'd love to hear your thoughts!
Also, if you've spotted any good deals, links would be much appreciated.
Thanks a lot in advance!

Would you also like a version that's even a little more casual or polished depending on where you're posting it (like a tech forum, Reddit, or a college group)?

Recently coming from an expedition at ... temperature between -15°C to -26°C used Urbn Powerbank model- UPR205 , 20000 mah

I was not expecting it to be that good. Usually in cold many powerbanks may fail , drain battery etc and I have experienced this before but this was to my surprise quite good .

So personally can recommend it highly. However, do check other reviews on the net too. I dont know how reliable it is for long term as I had only purchased it late last year.


Edit- I forgo to add..I have not had good experience with Anker powerbanks. others may disagree that is fine. just sharing my personal experience.. They are much more expensive and not great for long term. Instead my Xiaomi wala Mi powerbanks have lasted much longer.
So dont waste money on high end powerbanks.
Better to buy something reasonable and use for as long as you can and then throw and buy another. it is possible that it might turn out great for long term also. As some of my cheaper powerbanks is still working even after 3-4 years of normal uses. Though the battery backup is about 50%-70% now.
