No problem if your headset was already charged to at least 80%.  Anything less may cause overheating problems.  So I suggest you fully charge your headset beforehand.

No problem on Quest 1 either. I often use powerbank when watching movies in Skybox app or via Virtual Desktop. Mostly it's just warm.

Note: use 5 Volt power instead of 9V for cooler(but slower) charging.
