####Battery Options
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_battery_sizes)
Portrait Orientation:
18500 Batteries (18mm x 50mm), ~1000-2000mAh ea.
The Pi Zero configuration consumes are 500mAh
Landscape Orientation
18650 batteries (18mm x 65mm). ~2200-3500mAh ea.
Adafruit pack + PowerBoost Charger, ~$40
Anker PowerCore 10000, ~$25
Other options
external recharger (maybe cheaper and smaller?) along with 18500/18650
Some 18500 / 18650 include current protection inside, such as:

otherwise would require external protection circuit to be used in parallel.
####Pi 3 Version
This gets you a slightly bigger screen, and slightly better performance using the SDR Smart rather than the Nano 3, but requires a ton of annoying port/header clipping and desoldering.
