Product Description

Power your OzzMaker RGB LED matrix and Raspberry Pi from a single 3.7V LiPo or Li-Ion battery. An onboard buck-boost converter (TPS63020) delivers a steady 5V, and an integrated MCP73871 charger lets you recharge the battery in place.

We have also broken out unused pins and included a QWIIC connector so you can easily access the I2C pins.

Included in this purchase

  • 1x Raspberry Pi LED connector with LiPo/Li-Ion support

Specifications

  • Dimensions: 30mm x 50mm / 1.1in x 1.9in
  • Weight: 10g / 0.25oz
  • Connection: FFC, 5V and GND pads, QWIIC
  • Compatibility: Pi 3, Pi 4, Pi Zero and Pi Zero 2
  • Battery charge rate: 1A
  • Charge Connector: Micro B USB

  • Other: Unused pins broken out

⚠️ Important: Removing the battery

When disconnecting the battery from the JST connector, use a pair of pliers to gently grip the plastic JST housing on the battery cable and pull it straight out. Avoid pulling on the wires — this can damage the cable or pull the wires out of the connector. JST connectors fit tightly by design, so a firm, controlled pull on the housing is normal and safe.
