My GX80 (and probably more Lumix cameras that use BLG10E battery) have one crappy lack/disadvantage. They cannot be powered from USB, but only charged... I'm designing a big battery grip, so I needed some input "dummy battery". Wouldn't destroy almost new battery just to get its case, so I designed a dummy battery that fits camera's battery connector but also fits "external power connector" placement in battery cover. Now I can connect few 18650s or even an external power supply.
Original dummy battery and non-powered grip cost so much that buying Prusa Mini only for this project would be fully-paid tool.
Print instructions
Print my 3mf file with 0,2mm layer, 100% fill with option "supports everywhere" on. I added "support block" modifiers to print supports only where they are really needed.
Inside printed case, just place a PCB (1,5mm max thickness) emulating battery connectors plus some electronic. Glue in your favorite connector or cable in 4mm hole, it will fit your camera's external power hole.
