A9ii will be my first Sony. I'm assuming you can charge the battery while it's inside the camera, with a powerbank, through a USB-C or micro USB cable (for off grid charging when you can't use the AC wall wart)?
One more: I've read that Sony firmware updates can cause error messages when using third party batteries, so It's better to stick to original Sony batteries?
Congrats on your new Sony A9 II! Yes, you can do that although in my experience a fully charged battery will last quite a long time. Typically, I could get over 1K images on a single charge. It also depends on shooting circumstances, of course, and how much you view your images in between, etc.
I have not heard about usage of generic batteries can cause error during a FW update. Talking about FW updates, if you are using Mac, the process can be quite finicky. You have to follow the instruction on how to do that step by step without any deviation.

Only good till Sony upgrades their firmware then you have a battery that is useless.

There's no lens foot plate included with the Jobu Jr right, so I still have to get a plate or replacement foot to mount the 600mm f/4 GM?
