Thanks; weight is obviously critical.  The largest Anker I found, 15000 mAh, 
weighed 11 oz, which is daunting.

If you are looking for an external battery to power your electronics, such 
as a cell phone or MP3 player for the trail, look at the SunTactics 
batteries. Their batteries are lighter per mAh and I have found them to be 
extremely honest with their product spects.  For the trail, I have been 
using a 6000 mAh battery that will charge my iPhone 4S from near dead to 
full charge 3 times, weighs 4.2 oz on my scale and that is all the battery I 
find that need.
