Hello,

Thanks for your work, I plan to buy one.
Just a question about the board: is there anyway to add a DEL low battery feature (in addition or instead of using Pi low battery GPIO)?

On the Pi, PP1 is 5v in and PP6 is ground. You connect Vout to PP1 and GND to ground.
Ahh that makes since. I did not realize the Pi was labeled the same. Thanks for the clarification.

The "Low" pin will be pulled to ground when the battery is low. You could try an LED between 3.3v and "Low", which would not light because both pins would be high. Once "Low" dropped to ground, it should light.

The photograph shows the Safe Shutdown with PP1 & PP6, which I changed to Vout and GND, since not everyone would connect it directly to their Pi.

I need help with mine. I am having the same problem others have had where the low batt shutdown initiates when the GBZ turns on. The 60 second timer shutdown display begins when ES loading is first displayed. I have verified that my battery is at 3.9v.

Pinout for Pi Zero W
On -> Pin 15
Low -> Pin 11
Off -> Pin 13
3V -> Pin 17

The switch does not initiate the shutdown sequence and does not cause an immediate shutdown either. I just ran the update for the newest script and had it report that I have the newest script. I'm lost and need help.

I wiped the system and did a fresh install of Retropie and then the script. Now it's working great. Yeah!

As a complete novice when it comes to this kind of project can someone please, please post a wired diagram of the shutdown connecting to an adafruit powerboost 1000c

I'd be forever grateful!

Cheers
