3. Power Supply for Raspberry Pi (Important)

Charge

Insert the battery cable. Next, insert the USB-C cable to charge the battery. You will need to provide your own charger; we recommend a 5V 3A charger, or your commonly used smartphone charger will suffice.

Note

Connect an external Type-C power source to the Type-C port on the robot hat; it will immediately start charging the battery, and a red indicator light will illuminate.When the battery is fully charged, the red light will automatically turn off.

Power ON

Turn on the power switch. The Power indicator light and the battery level indicator light will illuminate.

Wait for a few seconds, and you will hear a slight beep, indicating that the Raspberry Pi has successfully booted.

Note

If both battery level indicator lights are off, please charge the battery. When you need extended programming or debugging sessions, you can keep the Raspberry Pi operational by inserting the USB-C cable to charge the battery simultaneously.
