Hi. First question for you wonderful people. I have the 5v inductive charging set, a lipo battery, and a LightBlue Bean. I also have a usb port and a 9v step-up voltage regulator.
So, the setup is 5v usb coming in, step up to 9v, then to the inductive charging transmitter. Inductive charging receiver connected to the battery and the LBB. Do you think that I need some type of charge controller like the lipo backpack charger used with the Trinket. I was inspired by the Galaxy Pendant but want to use the LBB so I can update the code via Bluetooth and an app on my phone. Thanks.

Yes. You will need a charge controller between the inductive receiver and the battery. One of the Micro-LiPo chargers would be a good choice.

Re: Inductive charging set to battery
Hello. I recently purchased this product for a school project. I do not want to charge specifically my phone but rather a battery bank. Is the process different? if so how?. Also what products beside the charging set will I need? Thanks
