Comment on [Looking for advice] Searching for a small slim twistable connector

If you make the wire (much) longer and put the connector in a location where there is less movement will solve both the restricted space and disconnection due to movement.

Thought about that as well, but sadly that’s not possible. I do have other locations to place the connector but those are only worse and have even more movement. Rn the connector is placed against some rigid foam where there is the least amount of movement but is somewhat influenced by the powerbank pouch. The only place I can move it, is to make the cable longer and place it at the bottom of the powerbank pouch where there is only soft faux fur which experiences a lot of movement during walking and turning the head.

If it’s not breaking due to movement, but only due to strain, putting the joint at the power bank seems like the logical choice. You can use cable sheathing or heat shrink where the damage currently occurs as strain relief and abrasion protection.
One other thing.
You mention a pouch. Have you considered how to deal with your power bank if it suddenly self-ignites?
