    I used this for doing long video shoots using HDMI or USB outs on my camera. It’s worked out well and has lasted years. It does require a robust USB power supply.

    Note as well as the amperage consideration, two gotchas with the EOS RP: 1. The EOS RP will not turn on with the battery door removed! Don't let well meaning advice relevant to other cameras cause you fear your new camera is broken! Instead, leave the door closed and open the undocumented little rubber flap on the bottom *side* of the camera to allow the cable to exit. 2. The camera will notice the "battery" is not genuine and require a few button presses when switched on to acknowledge you're bypassing Canon's ecosystem protections. Easy, except if you got the dummy battery so you could operate hands free...
