## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=DFR0682:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/DFR0682:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

Have you ever been disrupted by a sudden power outage while working? If so, the LattePanda UPS Hat is your best choice!

The LattePanda UPS Hat is compatible with the [LattePanda 2 Alpha](https://www.dfrobot.com/product-1727.html), [Delta](https://www.dfrobot.com/product-1908.html), and [3 Delta](https://www.dfrobot.com/product-2594.html) pins and can be installed directly. It uses three 18650 lithium-ion batteries as UPS storage batteries and supports power supply through both TypeC PD and 5.5mm DC interfaces. When the external power supply is interrupted, the UPS Hat will automatically switch to battery power, ensuring that your [LattePanda](https://www.dfrobot.com/topic-278.html) is not damaged by a sudden power outage.

Most importantly, our UPS Hat supports the HID-UPS protocol, which can be recognized as a battery device in the operating system. You can use system power management to implement power-saving modes and automatic shutdown functions, just like using an internal laptop battery. Moreover, the HID-UPS protocol is implemented through [Arduino](https://www.dfrobot.com/topic-277.html), and the code is open source. You can edit a more accurate battery power algorithm by yourself, and you can also set the charging voltage limit to extend the battery life.

When the UPS Hat uses the battery, the three 18650 batteries directly power the LattePanda, without any extra boost or buck circuit consuming energy, so the battery life can last up to 8 hours, allowing your LattePanda to hold on until the power is restored.(Tested with three 3.7V 3400mA·h 18650 lithium-ion batteries paired with a LattePanda 3 Delta.)

**Note:**

Due to transportation safety restrictions, the UPS Hat does not include 18650 lithium batteries, and you need to purchase 3.7V 18650 lithium batteries separately.

**Installation Steps**

Note: Do not install the lithium battery before the UPS Hat is in place

**Step 1.** Align the UPS power interface side with the LattePanda TypeC/RJ45/HDMI interface side

**Step 3.** Check that the pins are fully inserted in order, without any floating or bent pins.

To reserve space for heat dissipation and ventilation, the UPS Hat pins are longer. The figure shows the appearance after the installation is in place.
