Re: All day battery power for Touch - �24

2017-01-02 Thread drmatt

True but I've not found any that quote this capability in their feature
lists, yet I have about four or five cheap, probably crap, battery units
that will all work just fine this way, and I use them on a bunch of rPis
too.

Some do but check for it before buying.
I just bought a power bank for a RPi-based radio I built and I had to
buy one that was completely oversized (10,800 mAh which gives me around
24h of operation with that device) one because that was the only on that
would turn on automatically, allow operation while charging and had two
outputs.
There's a lot of cheap crap out there.

I also recommend the following apps (Apps Gallery from SBT touch
screen):
- Enhanced Digital Output (disables analogue out)
- Display Off

Battery life seems to be significantly better. It's a reasonable
assumption that noise is lowered too.
