Introducing the 5V/9V/12V Type‑C 18650 Boost UPS Module with Simultaneous Charge & Discharge – the ultimate portable power solution for Raspberry Pi, Arduino, and other hobbyist projects. Engineered to deliver stable voltage while safely charging a 18650 Li‑ion cell, this compact UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) keeps your micro‑controller running without interruption.
Key Highlights
- ✅ Three Adjustable Output Voltages: Switch effortlessly between 5 V, 9 V, or 12 V to match the exact power requirements of your board.
- ✅ Simultaneous Charge & Discharge: The built‑in charge controller lets the 18650 battery charge while the module powers your device, eliminating downtime.
- ✅ USB‑C Power Input: Fast, universal Type‑C connection for convenient charging from wall adapters, power banks, or solar panels.
- ✅ High‑Efficiency Boost Converter: Up to 93 % conversion efficiency ensures longer run‑time and less heat.
- ✅ Protection Suite: Over‑charge, over‑discharge, short‑circuit, and over‑current safeguards keep your electronics safe.
- ✅ Compact & Breadboard‑Friendly: Small footprint (45 mm × 30 mm) fits neatly on any prototype board.
Why It’s Perfect for Raspberry Pi & Arduino Projects
Whether you’re building a remote sensor node, a portable media center, or a robotics controller, power stability is critical. This UPS module supplies a clean, regulated voltage while the 18650 battery acts as a backup, so your code never stops—even if the main supply is interrupted.
