Hey @Dashmellow
The mini USB is 10pin HOWEVER that is only for data and GPS but for just power it is 5 pin...and not the crazy Mobius 5 pin but the actual normal 5 pin.
The camera as @kamkar1 and @CheckYourLights plus other testers can attest to runs absolutely fine off a power bank. In fact I've just finished a test regarding a power bank and it worked fantastically. I used a generic 5pin cable to run power from the bank to the camera and not one problem. Regarding the inline GPS, it should not be tooooo much of a modification but the problem is again money and also demand. From my research most people like to just use everything out of the box and as such I went with the simplest option.
I have so so so so many plans for this camera if I had money and if I had about an extra, $150,000usd I could release the accessories I really really want to. Sadly I do not have it so have to prioritise. But again the camera runs perfectly fine off power banks.
Cheers,
Dan
Thanks for the reply, Dan. That the camera runs on a standard cable is great news! As for a GPS enabled USB cable, I believe it would be a popular and welcomed option, but all good things in time.
