I just wanted to report back that the converter/charger system and battery listed below work.

I tested them last night in silent shutter mode. The M6ii shot 30 second exposures continuously for over 9 hours in. It looks like the battery still has more than half a charge remaining, but I did not look at the charge level before I started. So, I'm not sure where the battery level was when I started. This combo is more than enough for an entire night of exposures for star trails which is the original problem I needed to solve.

Thanks to everyone for their helpful comments.

Glad you got yours.  Thanks for the info on power consumption!
