Feather or solar charger, which batt port?

The Solar Charger passes power straight to its LOAD port while the panel is active, and under high-sun conditions, the output on LOAD can reach 6V. That''s enough to damage the Feather''s LiPo charger if you connect power to the BAT pin, and pushes the limits of the charger''s maximum input when connected to the USB pin.

6 FAQs about [Adafruit feather solar power]

Can Adafruit Feather run off a battery?

To make it easy to use the Feather for portable projects, Adafruit added a connector for a 3.7V Lithium polymer battery. The Feather can run off a battery or a micro USB, and you can use the USB input to recharge the battery. The Feather will automatically switch from the battery to USB power when available.

Can the Adafruit universal USB / DC / Solar lithium ion/polymer Charger use solar power?

How do I connect a battery to the feather?

You can also connect a 4.2/3.7V Lithium Polymer (LiPo/LiPoly) or Lithium Ion (LiIon) battery to the JST jack. This will let the Feather run on a rechargeable battery. When the USB power is powered, it will automatically switch over to USB for power, as well as start charging the battery (if attached).

What MAC address does Adafruit Feather M0 have?

The Adafruit Feather M0 with an RFM9x LoRa 868/915 MHz radio module that transmits and receives small packets of data is designed to make flexible wireless networks without the high power requirements of WiFi. Each Adafruit LoRa device comes with a small label that contains a MAC address in the form 98:76:B6:xx:yy:zz.

Can the feather be connected to an external power supply?

The Feather is not designed for external power supplies - this is a design decision to make the board compact and low cost. It is not recommended, but technically possible: Connect an external 3.3V power supply to the 3V and GND pins. Not recommended, this may cause unexpected behavior and the EN pin will no longer work.

How do I power a feather?

The BAT and USB pins will still be powered. This will turn off the ESP32 processor as well as all onboard circuitry except the USB-Serial converter. The two primary ways for powering a feather are a 3.7/4.2V LiPo battery plugged into the JST port or a USB power cable. If you need other ways to power the Feather, here's what we recommend:
