thanks for the video! Question: Is it possible to change the output voltage by replacing any resistors on the board or is the output voltage set internally in the IC itself?
ATTENTION: This modules are very dangerous. While my tests I tried what happend when there is a short on the output while I had a 18650 cell connected and a usb power supply. in this case the LEDs began to blink but the current on the output did remain at 5 volts. because I noticed that I created the short jus for 2 seconds. I then took a look at my computer and suddenly the cables connected to the battery to the IP5306 module melted and the module itself cot hot. I tested this with four different IP5306 and got the same result. I wanted to put this module in a toy for my kids. I am glad I tested that out first.
I tried to use this UPS as an inline UPS that should continue to supply 5v power to my microcontrollers one the VIN power supply is turned off, but this UPS turns off and then turns on in a few seconds. what can be done to provide continuous power supply to the load once the Vin power supply is switched off?
If you want no delay, it's easy to use tp4056, don't use this module because there is a delay even for 1 second, it will reset your system and wait a few moments
Hi Yes , i think i wrote it in the comment, still bad , actually worse. Not even able to turn it off. Still not able to power the small rc cars.But at least is not burning

Is there any way to use the KEY option? is the Key the autoswitch on? ..."I think they could be dangerous, also for the battery, because once i had them looking off (output to 0v) but still sinking 200mA and heating up"... so they drain the battery?
They are almost crap. If they are sinking 200mA is because they are broken. I ve broken several of them, all sinking current looking off. The few which are still working, they sink very little when off. It is very easy to brake them, one broke just switching on and off few times

Ciao grazie per il video. Ci sono arrivato per caso cercando un modulo per costruire una power bank con delle batterie lifepo4 di recupero (3.2v, 10Ah). Visto che hai l'aria di intendertene, potresti consigliarmi un modulo su aliexpress? Grazie in anticipo.

Hello I bought one of these modules for a 5v led strip. The module has a constant output voltage of 1.7v when turned off and 5v when turned on. Is it a bad module and will it drain the battery when turned off and not in use?
Yes it will drain the battery when not in use. Maybe attaching it to a led string will take less current because the led needs more than 1.7V to sink current
Good video, have you tried to recharge with more than 5V? because I should charge with a small solar panel but it delivers 6v and I would not want to put a resistor to reduce the input voltage
the data sheet lists 5.5 V as the recommended max input voltage, so I wouldn't try to solder it on directly. I don't know the details of your application, but you could use a step down converter (or "buck" converter) to regulate down to 5V. Or a step up and step down converter ("buck boost" converter), that way your input voltage can vary from like 2V to 24V and you'll get 5V. They're pretty efficient
Hi, i didn t test other modules, but i guess a power bank pcb module would so the job correctly. I think they are selling them on Aliexpress. Or just purchase a charger pcb and a boost pcb and combine them, you will have more choice and more current
@@MakerFabio Thank you for all. I suspect I'll need to make it different from I thought. I'll connect the battery and bridge it to the teensy board, at this way I'll see the battery % I have.
I was confused about this before too, scrolling through the comments on similar TH-cam videos, and some people had the same issue. I finally tried the passive dummy load solution with a 47-ohm resistor in parallel with the load, and it worked.
thank you for this video ... this module always burn ... i think you need put heatsink on the VRM ( 1R0 ) there are new module ( Upgraded version ) white color ... i think is better of black module

@@MakerFabio yeah, But i want to built a powercase or powerbank in a phone case, that i can carry around without need any cable, so i need to choose a powerbank module that as small as possible, efficient, and at least can do 1.5Amps.
@@jiwagaming5276 i see, it makes sense. Anyway being dcdc should have decent efficiency, better than linear, and it should have also thermal protection
Hi, ok for braatery charging, see minute 2,37. Every charger can be used for parallel charging, but output current is kind of low. And before prallel battery you need to have them at same voltage
Hi, is there any opportunity to limit the charging current. I have 500mah lipo and when I connect it to this module it charges it with 2.1a! I know that on tp4056 you could limit the current with replacing R3 resistor with higher resistance... Is there any similar solution for that module?
Really crap circuit. Got a bunch of these, but they can at tops deliver a load of around 0.7A at 4.2V on battery, and as the battery go down to 3.1V it can only supply 0.4A. It cuts off at 3.1V with no load. Pure crap.

This is what I experienced as well. If you disconnect the power, this unit will not immediately switch over to the battery.
If you want no delay, it's easy to use tp4056, don't use this module because there is a delay even for 1 second, it will reset your system and wait a few moments
What is "Key" used for and does that capacitor make it a UPS?
Too bad the music drowns the information at the end. I could barely understand a thing.
Thank you, did you managed to test the Upgrade version? Probably not yet :D

"small solar panel"
if the panel is smaller than 40x40cm, you actually can.
there is module spesific for solar panel rather than u using this universal module
Can this charge a 3.7V 18650 battery from a 6V solar panel and output 5V to a arduino?
Hi
Max unput voltage is 5.5V
I m not sure how it behaves if you power it with a weak solar panel current
