Lots of missing details here, not sure what your pack is or what electronics are in it.
But if you mean your USB powerbank is switching off after a minute, that's definitely something I've experienced. It's because most powerbanks switch off when less than 50mA of current are being drawn, because it assumes that this means your phone has finished charging.
There's only really two options here. Either find a new powerbank which doesn't have this limitation (that's going to be a challenge, this is a pretty standard feature), or find a way to use more power so it stays awake. For example, adding more LEDs, or maybe a high value resistor somewhere. Without knowing more about your setup it's hard to know what to recommend though.
Edit: I wonder if something like this might solve the problem for you?

The downside of using more power to keep the powerbank awake is that you drain the battery for no reason, but this seems to only "spike" the current draw every now and again on a timer. So that would prevent a lot of unnecessary power wastage.
There may be alternative options but this one has good reviews and the price isn't too unreasonable. I may have to grab one for myself, earlier this month I was trying to test a wireless trap pedal and I had to keep running across the room to wake up the powerbank![:lol:]( "Laughing")
