It is advertised as USB-PD compatible with Pass through. Seems good. And it should work well. The only recommendation is that the power-bank should …
1. Use a 3S or 4S Li-Po pack. These will have enough voltage which can be connected or soldered at the input of the 5V 5A board. The mAh depends on ho…
Thank you for being here. The requirement when choosing batteries are mostly dependent on the BMS. Would prefer that you use a 4S battery pack. This…
@tech_user Just ensure that the voltage drop is minimal. Adding connectors usually drops voltage at each of these points of connectivity. Also get a t…
It should work. The only concern would be that the you might want to connect the power directly to the pins or solder a cable with DC barrel end to co…
Yes, it works well with the USB-PD adapters and power banks. It will take the 20V input and convert it to 5V 5A output (USB-C). It is safe for Pi5. …
@beecielo Thanks a lot for the feedback. Glad that it worked well for you. Do follow us and we will have a lot more products coming up 🙂 Welcome …
Pichondria v1 can only supply upto 3A. We will have a 5V 5A UPS model in a month, for the RaspberryPi 5. Stay tuned.
Hi Francis, Yes, you can use power banks with USB-PD, just like USB-PD adapters, to power the RPi 5 using the Pichondria 5V 5A converter board. If…
Minimum voltage required is ~6V for the Pichondria converter to turn on. The recommended voltage is about 12-20V. But, it can operate from 6-20V wit…
You can power the Arduino via USB-A or USB-C output port of the Pichondria. But the I2C pins of Pichondria are designed to withstand only 3.3V. So e…
Yes. You can press the switch 3 times to shutdown the Pichondria without acknowledgement, even if you have enabled acknowledgement mode. This should…
