Edit: I found out why I had to keep activating this module to keep the power output on. This module auto detects current draw. If it is high enough it will keep the 5V output on. I was trying to keep an Arduino in a low power state then occasionally waking it up to transmit a radio signal which can draw a lot of power for a few seconds. My current draw on the Arduino was way too low so this module would shut itself off. The only way to keep it on was to send the button input on the board a low signal every so often to prevent it from turning off.
I couldn’t find any detailed information on these modules, but I figured these out when I tried using them again for a portable LED project. When I woke up the module and the brightness on my LED board was high it would stay on indefinitely. If my brightness was low when it first woke up it would shut off by itself after 30-45 seconds. If it woke up on high brightness and I switched it down to low without restarting it then it would still stay on indefinitely. Kind of odd behavior, but now that I understand these modules these are great for many use cases. I love how the push button on the side acts as a power switch. Press once to wake it up and press it twice to turn it off.
I love the battery status LED's on the side of the board. It added functionality that I wasn't originally planning to add.
My biggest problem with these boards is because they are so small. it's easy to let the smoke out while soldering the wires to the board. That issue is 100% my fault though, and wouldn't be an issue if I could have soldering the wires to this board first. But my design didn't allow that.
I would like to point out that these aren't necessarily "maker-friendly" though. Unlike similar boards like Adafruit's PowerBoost series or Helder's RetroRSU, these do not have a simple enable pin. They do have a "power on button", but this works by needing to be pressed and released to turn on and off, instead of the traditional EN pin which is pulled high/low and remains in the same state as long as the EN remains the same. In short, this means that you can't realistically connect a typical sliding power switch and instead must use a momentary button. This could be a deal breaker at worst, or like in my case, somewhat inconvenient and awkward to use. I do suspect that these are designed for use with power banks, which would explain the power on/off button behavior.
Another thing, they seem to have an abnormally high quiescent current draw. This means that when the device is powered down but the battery is still connected, power will be drained from the battery. In my project, I find that pulling it out of a drawer after a few days of not using it, it is always dead and has to be charged before I use it each time. Again, annoying for me, but not a deal breaker although it may be for others.
So based on your application these may or may not be well suited. If these do not work in your case, I recommend looking into alternatives like the Adafruit PowerBoost or Helder's RetroPSU.
Original review:
First tested at 5.1v OUT with 4.0v IN from 18650 Li-on battery.
I like the pin line up on one side with standard spacing. Made it MUCH easier to solder header pins on than other modules and place on breadboard.
Then I removed the 4 LEDs, as this was intended for embedded battery project.
V OUT powering an awake Atmega328P circuit is a great 5.1v.
Trigger sleep and wake work as advertised. 2 ground taps to sleep. 1 to wake.
The PROBLEM: The Discharge quiescent current (V IN from battery, V OUT to load, and triggered to shut off load) is 375uA, NOT the advertised 50uA!!! I tested on 2 of the boards using 2 DMMs.
Major problem for battery projects!!! FALSE ADVERTISING FOR SURE
If only powering part of your load from this module, and you use the enable function from microprocessor through transistor or something to act as power switch, then this may still be viable, but will take more circuit work, programming and components.
If the quiescent current for complete sleeping load project from battery is important, DO NOT purchase this module if that's a major consideration!!!
It also would have been better with throughhole for ENable pin instead of pad. Extra hassle with pad to circuit board or breadboard placement
I have not tested the charging with or without load function
