What is it?

Power supply module for RspberryPI 3B/3B+/4B.

Up to 3A output current max, easy to drive hard-disks or other devices.

5000mah can work more than 10 hours with RspberryPI 3B.

What makes it special?

It supplies power through the bottom of GPIO and does not occupy GPIO pins. Therefore, it’s totally compatible with other piHats.

It’s possible to keep your pi project in the minimum size.

• Easy to Install: install in one minute. No soldering required. Use special pogo-pin to supply power, does not occupy any GPIO of Raspberry Pi, can be used on pi both with or without GPIO header.

• Perfect Size: standard dimension of raspberry pi 3B/3B+/4B. You can easily put your prototypes in small cases. Easy, and graceful.

• UPS function: PiSugar2 Pro support UPS function.When the external power supply is powered off, it can maintain the uninterrupted operation of the equipment, and safely shut down when the power is too low

• Onboard RTC: RTC IC with a backup battery, make sure your device gets real-time even no network connection.

• Timed power on: Multiple timing modes, no human intervention is required to start your program at any time.

• Custom button: One Programmable button can be used for any action triggered by click/double click/long press

Installing the software

PiSugar2 Pro will actually work straight out of the box, with no software, to power the Pi, and for some other basic functionality. However to get the most out of PiSugar2 Pro you really need to install the software packages. For PiSugar2 Pro we have created a Raspbian shell to make it extra simple.

At the command line simply type:

curl http://cdn.pisugar.com/release/Pisugar-power-manager.sh | sudo bash

Then you can visit Raspberrypi:8421

(For example: 192.168.1.1:8421)
