Woot.com has a refurbished Mophie Powerstation PD XL for $13.99 each.
It's a 10000mAh powerbank that supports PD 2.0 (18 watt) speeds through the USB-C port.
At $14 shipped for Amazon Prime members, it's a steal.
Update 9/28 - Woot's vendor (ZAGG) seems to be sending out a different power bank (a Lightning charged wireless model) than the one advertised. If you have ordered one please update the thread if you received the correct item or not.
Update 2 - 10/3 - Woot's customer service attempted to get ZAGG to send me the correct power bank and they ended up sending me two more of the wireless lightning models. Something is completely broken between Woot and ZAGG's inventory systems.
Woot has refunded my order, but has not corrected their website. I've removed the link from this post. I encourage anyone who ordered these to contact Woot customer service and get a refund.
Lithium batteries will age as time passes even if you don't use up cycles. Your 7 year old 2015 battery will have less capacity than the same battery manufactured within the last 2 years. Maybe you don't notice the capacity differences but people who shop by capacity do.
I've had many brand new batteries that sat around in the package be DOA, die right away or have a short life. They sat long enough to be out of warranty. You have to get them fresh and use them they have a limited shelf life and operating life.
I, too, got one with a lightning port instead of usb-c. Woot refunded my order and let me keep what I got, since they said there was no replacement stock available.

I received mine today and had the same issue. Looks like Woot was selling these for Zagg.
Haven't been issued a refund yet, but am working through customer service right now.
This is actually very disappointing, I've only once had an issue with them before.
Buyer beware: As noted in the update, I got one of the lighting input wireless chargers from Zagg and the packaging was very rough. Battery seems fine but I feel the lighting input is a downgrade with everything moving to usb-c so may return. I ordered another one to see if I get something different again.

I encourage you to contact Woot customer service and ask for a refund if you haven't done so already. Woot/ZAGG really screwed this one up royally.
This package has been sitting on my desk for a month and I finally opened it and realized I got the wrong item too. At first I thought I accidentally ordered a wireless power bank but looking at my actual order and seeing the messages on this thread it's clear they screwed me too...
