Power your Raspberry Pi from a high-capacity Li‑polymer cell with a compact HAT that combines SW6106 power‑bank management, embedded protection and multi-protocol quick charge support. It delivers a regulated 5V output for Pi projects, portable displays and other 5V USB devices while charging the battery when a supply is present.

Ideal for mobile prototyping, short field trials and bench experimentation where longer run time and higher loads are required than smaller cells provide. Note: this HAT is not a true UPS — the Raspberry Pi will restart when you connect or switch the HAT on.
