Hi,

I want to run an application for a week. This video says the battery life is 10 hours:

Question:

Can I use an external power supply like this and set it to 5v:

Connect it's barrel jack to this barrel jack to USB C adapter:

and plug it into the USB C port on the SensorTile.box Pro?

Thanks,
Bill

    Hi @Williamx ,

    Yes, you can connect that external power supply without any problems but it must not rise above 5V and 500mA
