Smart UPS Expansion Board for LattePanda IOTA (18650 Battery)

The LattePanda 18650 UPS Expansion Board offers a high-performance uninterruptible power supply tailored for the LattePanda IOTA. It provides a seamless power management experience, akin to that of a laptop, through an easy plug-and-play setup. Utilizing the standard HID-UPS protocol, it is instantly recognized as a battery device in Windows 10 and 11, eliminating the need for additional drivers or custom programming. This ensures stable and continuous power supply, safeguarding your projects and data during unexpected outages.

A standout feature is its intelligent hardware-level power management. Users benefit from direct control over critical power functions using the onboard 3-position DIP switch. This straightforward hardware solution allows for settings such as auto power-on with external power, and system shutdown upon power loss, without relying on software. It's a robust set-and-forget power management solution that enhances system reliability.

Offering extended runtime capabilities, the board is designed to maximize energy efficiency. When paired with three high-capacity 3500mAh 18650 lithium-ion cells, it can keep a LattePanda IOTA running for up to 8 hours. This makes it especially valuable for mobile, off-grid, or long-duration applications that lack consistent power access. Efficiency is further accentuated by its ultra-low power standby mode, which draws just ~30μA post-shutdown, preserving battery life and readiness for future use.
