AIY Project Vision - Using a rPi Zero WH on a battery
Posted: Mon May 28, 2018 6:37 pm
Hi,
I have been experience power outage where my pi is located and I wanted to know how I should go about using a battery with it.
My first search gave me this.
PIM185 - Zero LiPo Power Supply for 40-Pin Raspberry Pi
https://www.adafruit.com/product/3196
But the docs say to use a USB Power supply that can provide 2.1 Amps of power via micro-USB B connector.

But the Pim185 only supplies up to 1.5A continuous current. Even the PowerBoost 1000 Charger - Rechargeable 5V Lipo USB Boost @ 1A - 1000C

Can only give it a mere 2A. The lil '.1' bothers me much here. Any thoughts?
Then by thinking big battery more power, I came to find this.

Anybody got a setup that runs a AIY kit 1.1 on a battery? Streaming in continue or recording, splitting and uploading all day?
