Hello, ftp, hope this is the right place to ask this...
For a project I need to power an arduino off of a USB battery. Arduinos do not draw a lot of current so my Anker USB Battery shuts off after around 10 seconds.
I am considering getting the Sparkfun Lithium Ion Battery Pack (TOL-14169). As it is designed to power the fairly low power Spectacle boards, I presume it could power an Arduino without shutting off?
I have also considered a battery shield, but I want to power it by USB.
Does this battery have an always on mode for powering very low current devices?
I understand this product was only released recently so knowledge about it may be limited, but thanks in advance.
