How do you power this device (other than the micro-USB)? How do you hook up battery power?

Apply battery + to the Vin lead at 7.0V (i.e. a 9V battery or wall wart) or greater (but less than 20V). Attach both GND leads to battery negative. Do NOT power the device by applying battery voltage exceeding 5V or under 4.5V to the 5V pin or you'll destroy the regulator and possibly the entire device.
1880652
You will need to put 5 volts across the pin labeled 5V, and any of the grounds (GND). You can use a battery, however the power supply must be regulated at 5 volts, so you cannot directly connect a 9 volt cell. You could use something like a 7805 regulator to generate this supply if you intend to use a 9 volt cell.

This is a copy of the Arduino nano, so you can find out more about it and the pinout here: http://arduino.cc/en/Main/arduinoBoardNano Short answer is that you can apply 7-12V to the "VIN" pin or you can bypass the regulator by applying 5V directly to the 5V pin.

You can hook up +5v to +12v to the VCC pin if you have an external DC power source, otherwise you need to use the USB.

The Arduino Nano can be powered via the Mini-B USB connection, 6-20V unregulated external power supply (pin 30), or 5V regulated external power supply (pin 27). The power source is automatically selected to the highest voltage source.The FTDI FT232RL chip on the Nano is only powered if the board is being powered over USB. As a result, when running on external (non-USB) power, the 3.3V output (which is supplied by the FTDI chip) is not available and the RX and TX LEDs will flicker if digital pins 0 or 1 are high.http://arduino.cc/en/Main/arduinoBoardNano

Solder to the power and ground pins on the circuit board. You will need to look at the schematic and the board layout. I had trouble with the sain smart clone and returned it. Bought a genuine nano.

There is a +5v pin (number 27) ground (29) and Vin pin (number 30). +5v is used for 5v input power or to output +5v if not used as an input and Vin is used for 6 - 20 volt external power. Pin reference picture here: http://hardware-analyst.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/arduino-nano-pinout.png

As shown on page 2 of the manual, you will plug the MICRO-USB cable into the outlet on the side. Then plug the USB Standard-A connector (large normal USB plug) into any USB power adapter of your choice (not included with Anker battery). You can use one from your phone, iPod, iPad, or any other AC adapter with a Type-A connector on it.

As far as I know you can power it with a USB but not charge the batteries. I occasionally use a stand alone, rechargeable power source for mine.

I've used both a mini-usb to usb cable to any USB source and the proprietary. Any charger that give acceptable mini-usb power can work.

This doesn't use an external power supply or battery. It simply uses one USB cable that splits into 2. Plugging the tablet into to USB ports powers the tablet and runs the display, digitizer, and express keys.

Yes, you can use either the adapter or the USB cord to get power.I use it to conserve USB ports.

it has a micro usb port for charging the device, comes with a cable for it or if you have one, that will work too, and just plug into a usb charger, for pretty much anything, they are all fairly standard of about 5v at 1 amp or so

the device is USB Powered. Just plug into available USB port on you computer and go to work

You CAN power it up via the USB Port OR the external Power Adapter. Using the external Power Adapter allows the plugged in( tested or augmenting) hard drive to operate more efficiently, It's another step but worth the small effort. Product support recommend connecting it that way... so that's what I did. If you do likewise you should connect the Power Adapter BEFORE connecting the USB Cable.

There's a mini USB on the end of it. Plug that in with he cable that came with it and plug the other end into a USB charger.

The device only charges via USB, to the best of my knowledge. Power blocks that support USB might work.

Draws external power. One of these models has a micro usb port to power it. I usually just plug it into the cisco device im using it on. It also comes with a pair of wire leads that you could use to fabricate a battery pack. Another option would be to use a usb powered cell phone charger battery pack. I love mine.

Make sure the battery is charged with a WALL charger (I.e. no laptop or anything similar). When it's finished, all four LEDs should light up. Then plug in your device and hold the button by the charge ports for a second or two and it should turn on, charging the device.

Same as charging any other device by USB. Plug a charging cable in to the micro-USB port (not the USB port), then you can charge it with a wall adapter/your computer/etc.

You can't, it runs on batteries....However, you can recharge the battery with a mini usb cable and the correct adapter or connect it to a computer.

Hi... Check out this link. Your thoughts above would seem to be correct - "Micro USB input for additional power to NON Surface devices.". I haven't tested this myself though http://www.juicedsystems.com/5-in-1-surface-adapter

You can use any Micro USB cable to charge the battery you can have that here... http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_0_10?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords;=micro%20usb%20cable&sprefix;=micro+usb+%2Caps%2C275&rh;=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Amicro%20usb%20cable
