Just to share that i recently found out the mk808 can be powered up using just the power supply from my 10port powered usb hub.
The power supply is 5V 3A used to power the hub.
Hub is connect to the normal size USB connector on the mk808.
There is no need to connect the stock power supply to the mini usb on the mk808.
with this arrangement i connected 2nos. flash drives, 2nos.-2.5" external hdd, rc11 flymouse, a 12v 125x125mm USB Fan and a usb2ethernet adapter to the hub.
All working perfectly for the last few weeks.
I also think it should work on mk808b and even mk908 or other duo core and quad core tv sticks since the power requirements are similar.
If 5V 3A is not enough due to higher power needs probably a 5v 4A or 5v 5A power adapter will work.
