Technical notes
The original GameBoy ran on 4xAA batteries, so the nominal power input would have been 6V. A 103450 LiPo pack however, only provides 3.2V-4.3V, depending on how fully charged it is. This is not a problem for the GameBoy DMG-01, because it contains an internal voltage regulator, which converts arbitrary inputs (within reason) to 5V. I've tested & confirmed this with a DC Power Supply, and confirmed that the GameBoy runs fine on all voltages a LiPo may output. The screen cuts out under ~2.5V, but the BMS board on the LiPo pack shouldn't allow it to discharge past 3.2V, to protect the LiPo itself from damage. Further, the power (W) consumption of the GameBoy does not vary significantly from 3-7V
