Hey!
I Want to use my Itsy Bitsy with a battery, but when I try to get some information about batteries for my microcontroler all I can find is answers with Adafruit LiPoly pack recomendations. There is no Adafruit LiPoly in any store in my Country so I need to get other one.
- My question is: Any Li-ion battery from voltage range 3,5 - 6 [V] will be charged through BAT and G pins once is plugged to USB? It will work just fine without any additional charging module extensions?
I want to use SANYO NCR18650GA 3500mAh Li-ION 3,7V as my Itsy Bitsy battery. Can any one confirm I can just plug it in and work with it?
Thanks for help in advance :-)

Re: Itsy Bitsy and other li-ion batteries
Which specific board are you referring to? Are you sure it is not a Feather? None of the ItsyBitsy boards have integral chargers.

Thank you for clarification :-) Yes I had Itsy Bitsy board in my mind. My huge mistake about build in charger...
I will charge my Li-ion battery separately then.
