This versatile boost module functions as a compact UPS and power bank, designed to automatically switch between external power and a Li-ion battery (typically one or two 18650 cells). It steps up the battery voltage to a stable 5 V output for USB-powered devices. The integrated charger supports auto-recharge when external power is available and includes full protection for safe operation: overcharge, under-discharge, over-current, short-circuit, and thermal safety.
