Getting info about powerbank

Sat Mar 21, 2015 5:45 pm

Hello guys :)

Could you tell me if Raspberry Pi can get info about power source? Can Raspberry know how long it will be on? I would like to use powerbank.

Thanks in advance :)

The RPi has no analogue input so would be reliant on support from the powerbank. None of the 7 different powerbanks I have provides any output additional to the 5 volt supply from the DC to DC converter.
