Since GaN (Gallium Nitride) power supplies are still kinda new and not everyone might know these exist, I'm simply posting this here to let you know how for me they moved PSUs from the "bulky necessities" category to EDC.
My laptop would easily survive a typical work day (I'm a software engineer) on a 30 W charger, probably needs more juice if I want it to stay fully charged tho. And of course fast charging your phone since that's what everyone's doing now.
Ansmann HC130PD mini / Goobay 59716: 44 grams, basically a little cube that fits in your pocket.
LogiLink PA0348 / Goobay 75737: 39 grams, has the width of a europlug so it won't block neighboring eurosockets, the USB A port is a nice addon, however it's a bit longer in size. This one will probably stay as my EDC while the other one goes into my backpack.
I could also provide links to where I bought these, but prices change over time and place.

I carry one of these in my backpack, very handy to steal electricity from work.
My experience using them with a laptop is that they get way too hot tho, which eventually melts the adhesive inside and the guts come out of the front when you unplug the cable… so tread carefully.
