Now I am looking at other batteries, not expensive lithium, I might also run a Pi 5 for an hour from something like a 12 volt battery. I have a solar panel 12 volt battery for an outdoor project. For the Pi 5 1 hour project, I would also run a 21" 240 volt screen. I have a 12 volt DC - 240 volt AC inverter for travel. But that is separate from looking at 18650 size battery.
You can get portable monitors (basically, a laptop screen with power handling and HDMI input built in) for moderate amounts of money. They come in a variety of sizes. The most common (and I suspect the "sweet spot" for price) is 15.6". They'll run off a 2A 5V supply.
