Key features
- Custom IP5306 solution with low-battery auto-shutoff removed — small-current projects keep displaying.
- Synchronous switch charge/discharge for one Li-ion cell; Type-C input; 2.54 headers and USB-A output; 2.4 A max boost (1.5 A+ measured with quality cells).
- Green charge and red discharge indicator LEDs; over-current / over-charge / short-circuit protection; breadboard-mountable.
- V1.1 supports multi-protocol fast chargers — negotiates 5 V (for charging safety) from chargers up to PD3.2 EPR 140 W, working with common phone, tablet and laptop chargers.
- Caution: observe battery polarity — reversed cells can destroy the module; charge first to activate on first power-up.
Frequently asked about this product
Can the 14500 1S Li-ion Battery Module (Type-C Charging + Protection) be used in classroom and workshop setups?
Yes — the 14500 1S Li-ion Battery Module (Type-C Charging + Protection) is designed for teaching and production-line use. It works with standard 5 V USB or battery supplies, connects through common headers or terminals, and ships with documentation and examples for Arduino IDE, Mixly and Mind+.
What voltage does the 14500 1S Li-ion Battery Module (Type-C Charging + Protection) run on?
The 14500 1S Li-ion Battery Module (Type-C Charging + Protection) runs from a standard 3.3-5 V DC supply (USB or the controller’s 5 V rail). It draws only a few milliamps in normal operation, so it is safe to power from the controller board itself for classroom builds.
What projects is the 14500 1S Li-ion Battery Module (Type-C Charging + Protection) good for?
The 14500 1S Li-ion Battery Module (Type-C Charging + Protection) is built for STEM and robotics education: classroom demonstrations, science-fair projects, robotics club builds and competition robots. It pairs with the rest of our module range — same connectors, same voltage, same toolchain — so students move from first circuit to competition robot without changing platforms.
What certification do the robotics and electronics products carry?
Controller boards, sensors and modules ship with CE marking and RoHS-compliant components, and the range is designed for classroom use under teacher supervision. Product-specific test reports and declarations of conformity are available for distributors on request.
What is the minimum order quantity, and can I get a sample first?
These are standard catalogue lines with stable production, so minimums are low and lead times are short. Samples ship within about a week and are normally credited against a first order. Mixed-SKU cartons are accepted for evaluation orders.
