Hello all,
I want to know if the S3 can be powered just by using a portable battery pack into the USB-B port (or any other way) whilst using it with an Ipad mini 2. I have tried this and the unit does all the correct light up on start but then becomes lifeless. I want to know if it can be used for a purely mobile solution like the Omnis - Duo in conjunction with an Ipad, when in locations with no wall socket. I am aware with a laptop it can power itself but ipad is the key issue for me. I'm surprised it initially springs to life with a portable battery, which is why it makes me wonder why it doesn't stay on.. maybe a bigger battery?? Or is this a complete no go. Cheers B
