So previously I had tested that the LiFePO4wered/Pi with #LiFePO4wered/18650 charge board could be used with a Pi 3 with 4 cores at 100% in UPS mode. What I hadn't tested was how long it would last just running from a battery. I decided that this test was only relevant when run with production LiFePO4 cells. They arrived yesterday:
So I ran this test today. Unfortunately, I don't have access to the thermal camera right now, but I can tell you this Pi is HOT! :)
The results are in: 1 hour of run time with the Pi 3 at 100% CPU on all 4 cores and an active Ethernet connection! Very happy with this result. :)
