in UP Xtreme Hardware Specification

Hello

I'm enjoying using UP Xtreme! I'd like to ask one question about an alternative option to supply power.

Currently, I'm using this power cable. Would it be possible to use a battery such as this to supply the power to the board? If possible, could you tell me what kind of cables would be necessary that connect the battery to the board?

Thank you so much!
Best,

    Hi @legged_robot_love ,

    For powering UP Xtreme via a battery, you would require a battery with higher voltage as the one you shared has its voltage too low.
    The UP Xtreme's power requirement is 12~60V DC-IN (lockable connector)

    Then you have to bring down and stabilize the voltage with the proper circuit, using a step-down regulator /DC to DC converter, and plug the output of the DC to DC converter in the DC jack input.

    For the DC jack port details, please refer to the dimensions from the UP Xtreme PSU datasheet here, under Downloads,

    Hope this helps.
    Regards,
    Pratik
