Charing battery with a Banggood Powerboost

[Kaikai]

Hello!

I thought i finished my GBZ build the other day, as it worked great. Booted, controlls works, screen works and everything was a dream. Then the battery ran out of power...

I am using the Banggood Powerboost, and the LEDs are red when i charge and blue when the GBZ is running, but it seems that it is not charging the battery even though the red led is on when micro usb is connected.

I followed this diagram for wiring:


I do not know how to troubleshoot where the problem is, so anyone with ideas on this would be very appreciated

You have the switch on the wrong side. It cannot charge the battery when switch is off. Place switch between V+ and your power strip.
