Where to connect Micro Lipo w/Micro USB Jack on Sound reacti

Post by Gladiolus »

Hey there!
I'm a newcomer to Adafruit but after having colleagues tinker with it to great success I wanted to get involved myself on some personal projects.

So I have the following materials:
1 x FLORA - Wearable electronic platform: Arduino-compatible (v3) [ID:659]
1 x Lithium Ion Polymer Battery - 3.7v 150mAh[ID:1317]
1 x Electret Microphone Amplifier - MAX4466 with Adjustable Gain[ID:1063
1 x NeoPixel Ring - 16 x 5050 RGB LED with Integrated Drivers[ID:1463]
1 x Adafruit Micro Lipo w/MicroUSB Jack - USB LiIon/LiPoly charger (v1) [ID:1904]

Someone suggested the Micro-Lipo w/MicroUSB Jack since it would make charging the battery for this portable light board that much easier.
This is the first time I'm ever really messing with some of these things so I did some research and found an example of what the closest application would be, found here:

However, I'm a total novice and it's been years since my last shop class so I'm wondering if someone can help me figure out where I need to attach adacruit micro lip w/micro USB jack so that I can charge this circuit.

Appreciate you helping out this noob! lol

You can connect the MicroLiPo's BAT and GND pins to the VBATT and GND pins on the Flora.

Another option would be to use a JST-PH2 jumper like this one:

Connect the black wire to GND on the MicroLiPo and the red wire to BAT, then simply plug the JST connector into the Flora.
