Datasheet
Battery and USB connection
You can connect a battery to the breakout strip or to the JST connector. All of Adafruit
batteries come with JST cables that will plug in nicely. Watch the polarity of the cable!
the + and - markings next to the JST will let you know which way is which.
The USB connector can be soldered on to create a portable 'USB power pack'. The two data
lines on USB have resistor dividers that match Apple charger values so that you can plug any
iOS device in to charge. 99% of other phones, devices and tables are totally cool with these
resistors as well. You can always short the D+ and D- lines if you happen to have a phone
that wants shorted data lines.
If you don't want a USB connector attached, there are two holes that are designed for a
3.5mm spaced terminal block (not included)
