Basically it’s a mini-UPS that works for any Raspberry Pi, but for a model 3 you have to add a tiny capacitor.

From the readme:

  • Description: LiPoPi is a guide to setting up the Raspberry Pi with a LiPo battery including both running and charging it
  • Project Website: GitHub
  • Requirements: A Raspberry Pi (any model – see notes about the Raspbery Pi 3) and an Adafruit PowerBoost 500 Charger or 1000C Charger
  • Skillset: Requires soldering skills and a basic knowledge of the command line
  • License: GPL Version 3
