Hi all, I want to ask whether I have broken my PiPower by unplugging the battery while the board was still connected to wall outlet via the usb-c port. Only the red light next to the battery plug is still on, none of the 4 capacity lights turn on. Nothing was warm, but it did seem it dramatically lost power. Please advice, thank you.
If your pipower3 is powered on and connected to a Type-C power source for charging, and you then directly disconnect the battery, this step is indeed an incorrect operation. It’s hard to determine if this will damage the pipower3.
We recommend that you provide us with a video of the issue so we can better assist you in analyzing and resolving the problem.
