Hello Mauro,
Welcome!
Yes, you can run the pi from a battery pack. I use the MyCharge Peak
6000 but there are other packs available. Small batteries for
flashlights and mp3 players will not work. The battery pack would need
to be recharged from electricity directly or from a laptop or desktop
computer.
You can use earphones with the pi. There is a jack on one of the long
sides of the pi. Look carefully as it is flush with the side of the pi,
not the big round port sticking out.
Windows has sd card writing programs which are accessible and you can
use the dd command in Linux. The dd command is silent when processing,
but spits out messages when it is done.
I live in the US.
