Meet the evelvo PB-LITE | Charge a single-cell lithium battery, read battery percentage, and get charge status — all in a compact design.

PB-LITE | powerboard-lite on-board fuel gauge IC, read/estimate battery percentage.

Read battery percentage.

Connect the on-board Fuel Gauge IC to a microcontroller via I2C to obtain the percentage data.

PB-LITE | powerboard-lite Check charging status

Checking charge status.

While the LEDs give you a visual, the two charge status pins inform your microcontroller.

PB-LITE | powerboard-lite Dimensions 17x18mm

Small - but powerful.

17x18mm | 10mm shorter than the famous TP4056 - with far more features.

PB-LITE | powerboard-lite M2 screw holes

M2 screw holes.

No glue, no friction fit. Just good old screws...
