( I don't represent this company but wanted to battery power my tinkerboard for a project...)

Thought it was a bit costly for the hat & 3000mah battery. Will be receiving it tomorrow. So will feedback after some tests
How did you get on with the UPS hat?
Did you try it in Android by any chance? and did it report the battery level back to the OS?

I'm trying to power my tinkerboard via a 3.7V Li-Ion battery directly from the GPIO header and while it powers and runs fine, I'm not getting battery level reported back in Android (Havent tried Debian yet).
I'd looked at this board before, but think its quite costly when the RK808 should be providing power management back. I also have one of the below so looking at writing an Android driver for it.
