I am looking for a power solution that results in approx. 10,500mAh, 1.5V. The solution would ideally be as small as possible.
Any suggestions/advise would be much appreciated. Many thanks

what do you mean exactly?
mAh is the unit of batteries, so 4 x AAA alcaline could do the job...
or are you looking for a power source that replaces the battery?
in this case you would need to generate 1.5V @ ILOAD from an input (solar, grid, another battery, etc...)

mAh is Milliamp Hours, a unit for measuring electric power over time. It is commonly used to describe the amount of charge a battery can hold. The higher the mAh, the longer the battery will last.
Unfortunately I don't believe there are any 1.5v batteries that can hold 10,500 mAh. Most I can think of would be a rechargeable AA with around 2500mAh.
Smallest battery I have seen with up to 10k mAh was 6v, which was a lawnmower battery.
I agree with Cory, you will be hard pressed to find one at that capacity
you may be better off with a higher voltage battery and an efficient buck converter right at the place where the load is, this will eliminate allot of losses due to potentially inadequate cables and connectors (The buck converter will loose less than those)
