Tried it this summer with 13'' Onyx Boox 2 as hdmi display and standalone. Both worked as expected, but somehow getting things done didn't really work well.

Interesting. Nice to know someone has used the 13" Onyx outside for work.

Curious - why didn't it work for you?

Not onyx fault: It was just too hot;)

Display is perfect in sun, but contrast not optimal in shade, so I couldn't escape the burn. Next time I try a 20m hdmi cable with normal display set to max in the shade.
