If you are lucky and your Onyx kernel has support, you can enable "Prioritize battery idle mode" - which does exactly what you ask, using the charging cable to supply power directly to the device not using the battery at all.

On Onyx Boox Kon-Tiki 2 I don't have this, example.
Sounds like exactly what I was looking for! Thanks a lot, I'll try it out once get the battery replaced.
