Now, if only I can find a power bank with a physical switch. Of course I
could build something but I can't beat China's prices.

I never saw that before and it does look handy, thanks. The 6/9
version is handy too because that could support NEC too.

If you are looking for a power adapter to run your M100 from a USB
battery bank, this is the ticket:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BJDRV4H5
Boost to 6V and it is already center negative so you don't even
need to
crack it open and flip the wires.
Of course, you can run the M100 from the 5V directly, but you will
get
more life out of this as the M100 shuts down at 4.8V from my
understanding.
The only drawback is that it will draw power from your battery
bank the
entire time it is plugged in since it draws enough current by
itself to
keep the battery bank turned on.
