Here is a detailed analysis of each expansion board and its advantages:

X1200

  • Features: Onboard 2 18650 battery holders, compact design, suitable for projects with limited space.
  • Advantages: It can provide stable 5V@5A current output to meet the power supply needs of most Raspberry Pi and its peripherals.
  • Application scenarios: Suitable for small projects that require a certain battery backup but have limited space, such as portable monitoring equipment, small robots, etc.

X1201

  • Features: It also has 2 18650 battery boxes on board, but it is designed to be placed side by side with the motherboard to achieve the thinnest effect.
  • Advantages: While maintaining strong power supply capacity, it optimizes space occupancy, especially suitable for scenarios with strict thickness requirements.
  • Application scenarios: The ultra-thin design makes it suitable for scenarios with strict volume requirements such as wall-mounted devices and embedded systems.

X1202

  • Features: Onboard 4 18650 battery holders, providing higher battery capacity.
  • Advantages: Longer battery life, suitable for applications that require long-term operation and cannot frequently replace batteries.
  • Application scenarios: Suitable for field monitoring stations, remote data loggers and other equipment that require long-term unattended operation.

X1203

  • Features: No battery holder, but reserved XH2.54 battery interface, highly flexible.
  • Advantages: Users can choose the appropriate battery type and capacity according to actual needs, greatly improving the flexibility of DIY.
  • Application scenarios: Suitable for advanced DIY projects that have specific requirements for batteries or want to use non-standard battery configurations.

Common advantages

  • Intelligent monitoring: All expansion boards can intelligently monitor the power status of the Raspberry Pi 5 and automatically cut off the power when shutting down, which helps to extend the battery life.
  • Sufficient power supply capacity: They can provide stable and reliable Vdc 5V@5A power supply capacity.
  • Programming interface: Supports software programming, reads UPS status (such as battery capacity, voltage), and realizes advanced functions such as low voltage automatic shutdown and external power supply shedding alarm.
  • Easy installation: The pogo pins are used to connect to the motherboard, which simplifies the installation process. It also comes with an onboard switch and a reserved external switch PIN for easy user control.

    Nice concept, poor fitting batteries

    I recently purchased one of these to try to enhance my rPi5 setup. Install was a breeze and seems to be working correctly. My issue, though, is that the 18650s don't fit properly. They're both a bit too big in diameter and length. I specifically purchased the ones recommended, so I think the issue is just that the housing is slightly too small. I was *barely* able to get mine to fit, but that has resulted in a fair amount of flex in both the housing and the PCB which likely isn't sustainable.
