Unboxing the GreatScott! DIY LiPo Supercharger Kit
GreatScott! and Elektor teamed up to design a single-cell LiPo power bank with 5V and 12V outputs. It is protected against overvoltage, overloads, and short circuits.
YouTuber GreatScott! and Elektor teamed up to design a single-cell LiPo power bank with a switchable 5V 1.5 A or a 12 V 0.75 A output voltage. It is protected against overvoltage, overloads, and short circuits.
The device comes as an SMT kit, it is up to you to solder the passive components. All the difficult parts have been presoldered for you.
