Solar Power with Lipoly for Arduino
I'm still pretty new to electronics but I'm trying to replicate this circuit https://learn.adafruit.com/assets/19804 ( from Collins' Lab: Solar) where Collin connects a 6V solar panel to a LipolyCharger charger to lithium ion battery to a power booster 1000c. I will be connecting an Arduino with a micro servo through the USB port. Everything is perfect, except, I cannot see from the picture (also he is using another type of power booster different to mine) how he is connecting the Lipoly to the Power Booster. How should I connect the cables, from Bat and Ground soldering points in the booster to what on the Lipoly? Or am I getting those wrong? I don't want to solder something wrong and screw up the whole project.
Please Help!
Thanks!!!
Maria

In this picture there are jumpers to the PowerBoost on BAT and GND
