Hi,
Highly likely some replacement battery does not work with M1. It must be compatible with M1 and I do not just mean size, voltage and things like that. M1 reads battery diagnostics data and charging algorithm uses that data to control charging process.

Thanks for the reply. This would not be a replacement battery that goes inside the device, so the device would not be able to read any charactoristics of the external battery. The idea would be operating it without an internal battery, and insteady using the 5v/2A charinging barrel port only. However, instead of using a QC charger, use the 5v/2.4A output of a LiFePO4 battery that goes to the charging port of the device in lieu of the QC charger. WOuld that work?
