Fuel Gauge Plus PowerBoost 1000C?
Good evening. Hopefully I have a straight forward question. I’m working on a project that I would like to power using a Li-ion battery using the PowerBoost 1000C, however, I would also like to have a fuel gauge (LC709203F) wired in at all times to read the battery level when untethered and the charge level when tethered. Is this possible. I tried to make since of the schematics and I think I would just need to add a JST splitter after the battery, but I’m a bit out of my depth in the world of charging. Could anyone tell me if this is possible or just a good way to fry a breakout? I appreciate your time and attention.

No need for a ST splitter. The Fuel Gauge board has 2 JST jacks on it. Plug the battery into one and then use the included JST jumper to connect from the fuel gauge to the PowerBoost.
