Hello, hope everyone is staying safe & keeping well! As the title suggests, I have an offbeat & very specific use for a spare ATV4K I have. I’m intending to strip all the innards & just keep the logic board & power it with a TalentCell 12v Lithium Ion Battery Pack. I’m wondering if this is possible since the ATV4K A1842 model draws 12v @ 1.083A. I’m planning to use this for a portable AirPlay unit to display my PowerPoint presentations remotely in 1080p resolution (or less) TV sets. I will also be using it to mirror my iPhone’s video when I fly my DJI Mavic 2 Pro drone. My iPhone & modded ATV4K w/battery pack will always be close together for Peer-to-Peer adhoc connections using AirPlay. Any confirmation or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
I do think this is a reach! The space the power supply takes is not really large enough for the needed power pack. Besides you would still need the cooling fan. I think its would a lot less work to mod the system so it can be powered via DC, then just have the pack external to the unit.
