Trying to charge the (genuine) battery via a small powerbank plugged into the (genuine) charger via the (genuine) cable. The charger light blinks
Normally when the charger blinks, it should mean the battery has problem (to recharge). This should be a general signal of all external chargers of mine.
I saw this when charging 3rd party battery which are nearly dead/dead or some batteries (3rd party or OEM) which were long not used. I would trash those batteries.
green and I'm not sure if the battery is charging. The battery does charge fine plugged AC (solid green light), and also into a larger powerbank (which is too large to take on a ultra light mid-west through hike).
Contacts are clean, so wondering if the little powerbank doesn't have enought grunt.
Any thoughts welcome, thanks.

Not sure your charger model.
Currently I am using 2 types of chargers, the OEM (for the older models, camera from GX85 onward would mostly no external; charger supplied) which use AC power and the 3rd party chargers which use USB power (5V, min 2A) input. In case of my USB chargers, if the USB power source (external power bank?) is not powerful enough to drive the charger, no recharging will do (can't remember the charger will blink or not).
Therefore, what is the spec of your 1st mentioned power bank?
