Pironman board power problem

[Tino]

Hello, I bought a Pironman in January 2023 and run it with a Raspberry Pi 4 and an M.2 SSD card.
All the time ran without errors but for 3 weeks it keeps crashing and rebooting. I’ve swapped the USB bridge to no avail. If I use the power supply from the Raspberry Pi 4, the Raspberry works, but the board no longer has any LEDs.

Greetings Tino

Pironman v2 case ssd stop at random time

You use a Type-C cable instead of a USB bridge to connect the SSD, after startup, check the working status whether the crash problem still occurs. If you have a multimeter, after you start the Pironman, measure the output voltage of 5V and GND of GPIO. I hope you can provide us with a video of the problem so that we can analyze and solve the problem. If the problem is caused by hardware, we will arrange to send you the corresponding hardware module.
