Are there any phones or tablets out there that can run on the charger cable only, completely missing the battery?

    My question/idea is to repurpose old devices for home use, even after the battery done went to shit…

    Whatever devices that can function without a battery at all would be ideal. You know, something you can use at home to watch videos or whatever…

      Based on this artice and some searching it seems that it should work with some phones out of the box. And it seems other phones can be powered with power supply and a step down converter wred directly to pads/pins meant for a battery.
