Can anyone tell me what cable I need to connect my power supply to the Fireboard drive cable? I would like to remain cordless.
USB to ?

If it charges from a USB micro connection, then all you need is a USB power bank of some sort (rechargeable battery, basically, and a standard USB A to USB micro. If the Fireboard comes with a charging cable, that's all you need. I picked up a cheap solar panel charger from Monoprice that will top off a 10,000mah power bank easily. With that, you're completely off the grid. Plus the power bank can recharge your phone, too.

I figured it out and have it running now to see how fast it will drain the 24000mAh power supply.

I set it to run constantly at 30% and it went for 15 hours, I'm sure that's got to be over double the fan time of an actual cook.
