• 🔌 Auto-switching from main power to battery - zero downtime!

Description

Let's face it - there's nothing worse than losing power right in the middle of that critical project. The UPS HAT (D) is your insurance policy against unexpected shutdowns. This power shield sits right on top of your Pi and keeps the electrons flowing even when the lights go out.

The secret sauce? A beefy 21700 Li-ion battery slot (BYO battery) combined with some clever power management. When main power drops, the HAT seamlessly switches to battery backup faster than you can say "where's my flashlight?"

But wait, there's more! The built-in I2C interface lets you monitor everything from voltage to battery capacity in real-time. LEDs give you at-a-glance status updates, and the whole system is protected by a suite of safety features that would make a security guard jealous.

What's in the Box?

• 1x UPS HAT (D)
• 1x Snazzy acrylic protection panel
• 1x Bag of mounting hardware
• 0x Batteries (you'll need to bring your own 21700 Li-ion)
• ∞ Peace of mind

Required Hardware (Not Included)

• Raspberry Pi (3, 3B+, or 4B)

Safety First!

Remember folks - batteries deserve respect! Stick to high-quality 21700 cells from reputable manufacturers, and follow proper battery safety guidelines. No mixing and matching, and replace them when they're past their prime (about 2 years or end of cycle life).
