Default Best compact mixer that can be power-supplied by external battery

Hi,
I'm thinking about getting a nice mixer for plugging in acoustic guitar and microphones (both a mic'd guitar as well as vocals). But I really would like to be able power the mixer from a battery, external pack is no problem. So it needs to accept DC input on a "standard plug" so that I can build my own cable and connect that to a pack of rechargable batteries or similar.

I used to have an Yamaha AG06 mostly for recording, but I sold it as I didn't use it. It was really convenient though as you could power it with a regular USB power bank (as you would have for a phone). But the AG06 is not really suited for live use, it has no balanced output.

The Yamaha MG10XU looks really good, but as I understand it use an external AC adapter, and not a DC. This makes it much harder.

The MG10XU has a compressor for channels 1-2, and this is something I would like to have. So alternatives to the MG10XU with that feature is a bonus.

I also want good effects suitable for vocals and acoustic guitar.

So what are the recommendations?

Thanks in advance,
Per
