Hi all,

I have a Badger2040 (running 1.18.7) and a connected LiPo 105mAh. As the Badger does not have an integrated charging circuit, can I leave the LiPo connected while I plugin in USB-C to update code or transfer files from my Mac?

I have printed a case and sometimes I just need to plug it in quickly to update a bit of code and don’t want to unscrew to open up the case, remove battery, etc.

Yes, because there’s no charging you can have battery and USB connected at the same time safely :)

Awesome!

I think I’ll also add a LiPo Amigo (Pro) at some point so I don’t have to open the case at all :)
