Hi Peter,

I had a few Advent Vega tablets permanently on for this exact situation a
couple of years ago. Fine with stock chargers, though the OS was replaced
with "vegacomb" if memory serves.

Decommissioned when we moved, but I'm looking to do something similar again
(no longer have the Vega's) - so interested to see what you & others
come
up with!

(I do have a few 15" Windows Embedded PC touchscreen in wall units for
sale
if anyone's interested - POE so run forever ;-))

R.

I am guessing the charge rate is managed by the Asus device.<br>
Trouble is choice is steps up to 30 minutes before sleep or never sleep.

Bit of a pain having to use 30 minutes and keep waking it!<br>
Any ideas?<br>
