I never understood this as aSB user myself.

ng manner??!
not sure what you mean by that at all...
Something like this would probably work to hot swap batteries, but you won't be able to use the battery hole.

The charger that comes with the Soundboks is not powerful enough to power a soundboks above half volume, you need to use batteries, or buy a more powerful 12v power supply.
Oh bummer. Do you know if 240V/60Hz input power will work, or only 240V/50Hz?
If the former, then I can probably use a step-up transformer like this one: https://www.amazon.com/KRIËGER-Voltage-Transformer-Converter-Approved/dp/B00HDUUL40
My buddy linked me this from what he saw in the fb group
but also they’ve been selling a limited stock of extra batteries every Monday morning until they run out like I got one a few weeks ago. U just gotta go on their webpage Monday morning and refresh on the hour to see if they added stock. I forget the exact time.
I don’t have one personally, but I looked for one in case I needed, plus I was looking for something to carry mine in for tailgates to protect it. Width with the rubber knobs is 12.5” so this should be perfect https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07VF4BF4V/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_B30J14V38AW8GC1836YN?psc=1
https://www.amazon.ca/Tisino-Female-Balanced-Interconnect-Quarter/dp/B07JVCZ6DJ/
It's a type of balanced connection. The higher end DJ decks will have those outputs, and the Soundboks pro panel accepts the audio jack like end.
Just a standard RCA to 3.5mm cable. I haven't tried the XLR ports. https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B06XFTHCNY/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_i_J0DFN9GEJCTVDJG4FCP5?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
Either directly into the soundboks when wired, or when wireless into an an akiko pro transmitter, but a non pro would probably be fine. I might need a non pro when my diamondbox subwoofer arrives so i can transmit to 3 devices, but I also might just wire it with an aux cable.

Latency on the pro is unnoticeable, but I have a feeling the non pro would be as well.
It's really convenient at home where the controller isn't close to the speakers.
Note: there has been rare but occasional static when using skaa from the controller, or simply skaa between the 2 speakers. I need to do more testing, but I think it might be my speaker placement causing some interference, but it might just be wireless being wireless.
Just tried https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07MXXXBV8/ and still get cutouts at 8-10 volume levels with any kind of a drop. I'm set on figuring this out now, going to get some more measurement in place and find a power supply that can match the battery output.
I'm going to build two of these later this week, SB is sold out of batteries and one of mine just died again.
It's incredibly annoying that they don't sell a first party wall power plug.
The SB provided battery charger tops out at 14.5V * 3.3A = 47.85W which explains why it cuts out when you drive them too hard without a battery in.
The SB battery pack is rated at 12.8V * 7.8A = 99.84
I bought two https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07GQPTSH1/ and some 2.1mm barrel jacks and will build these next weekend.
Will follow up with results.
I would use something in this direction: <em>click</em>
Just hook up a mains plug and on the 12V side both outputs in parallel to a Plug that fits the SB. When you choose a Powersupply for that, get something around 12V 300W because the SB can use up to 216W and you need a reserve for the peaks. I used an PC Power supply once, just make sure a Single 12V rail is powerful enough to Power the SB.
I bought this one for mine and it’s awesome! I would buy it again in a heartbeat. Super sturdy. I use it all the time.

I found a cheaper longer solution
https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B08N43CH25/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
this thing has a power socket and 85 watts (the soundboks charger is 50 watts ) in the amazon reviews in the Soundboks 2 a person asked if such power supplied can be used and the answer was yes .
I already ordered one and i will see how it works
