Hi,
Can I use the SparkFun LiPower Shield (13158) with Arduino Due?
I'm not sure about it. So far I understand that I can power the the Arduino Due through 5V pin in the same way as an Arduino Uno, but it is not recomended (Documentation tab):
Thanks

5V. This pin outputs a regulated 5V from the regulator on the board. The board can be supplied with power either from the DC power jack (7 - 12V), the USB connector (5V), or the VIN pin of the board (7-12V). Supplying voltage via the 5V or 3.3V pins bypasses the regulator, and can damage your board. We don't advise it.But, the LiPower Shield will be that missing regulator, right?
Thanks
