New to esp/electronics in general, I have a question about making my project portable. I have an esp8266 breakout board from adafruit, attached to a DHT22 temp/humidity device, and I have it working nicely. Its currently being powered by the USB to TTL serial cable i used to program it, but I want it to be powered from a battery source other than my computer to make it portable.

Which batteries work well with this esp8266 setup? how would I go about hooking up a battery to the breakout? Thanks,
