PowerBoost 1000 C

Post by skanji93 »

Hi I am really interested in your PowerBoost 1000 C. In your video description you mentioned that you can only use a lithium ion battery or lithium polymer. However I was wondering if it would be possible to connect the powerboost to a lithium ion capacitor. I would really appreciate your help in answering this question.

Thanks in advance!

The charger is tuned for LiPo/LiIon charging characteristics. The characteristics of the caps seem different enough that it probably would not work well.
