I love this kind of stuff! I don't travel for work, so I never had a good excuse to set something like this up.
Not having a screen is a bit of a downside, you could use your phone as a screen but that would defeat the purpose as you can SSH into a box at home/work from your phone.
I personally have a cheap (200 euro) 11" Acer ES1 laptop with Linux installed that I leave in my car or suitcase for those moments that I am not willing/able to take my work laptop. It runs for about 14 hours on a charge and can be charged directly from my car's 12V outlet. It can boot from a SD-card or even boot straight from the internet. The keyboard is actually really nice.
