Something like pic related?
They seem to be both more expensive and have less capacity than that RS Pro powerbank, though. Even something like https://www.banggood.com/Geekworm-UPS-HAT-Board-2500mAh-Lithium-Battery-For-Raspberry-Pi-3-Model-B-Pi-2B-B-A-p-1105260.html is still half the capacity for 1.5x the price.
Do hats using the GPIO pins have any inherent advantages over using a power bank with passthrough and micro USB? The whole thing is going to be contained in a case, so I don't mind the battery not being anchored to the Pi, and having it not stacked on top of the Pi would actually be better for the thickness.
