June 07, 2018KH 385: Lithium Powered, UPS Raspberry Pi Case - LiPi: A self-contained, battery powered Raspberry Pi NUC
The Raspberry Pi is an amazing device that can be everything from a server to a game machine, but have you ever wanted to have a self-contained, portable unit? Or maybe a server NUC with a built-in uninterruptible Power Supply?

On this episode of Know How, Patrick and Padre take you through the steps of creating a "LiPi" which can give you up to 12 hours of power for your RasPi while also acting as an auto-switching UPS that can run on 6-26 volts!

Project Summary:

We've done several RasPi projects this year that could bennefit from an independent power source. (The TorPi, the Pi-Hole, The RetroPi) -- We want to create a power system that can act BOTH as a power system AND an uninterruptible power system.
Project Requirements:
Must have a way to power the RasPi WITHOUT using the USB connector

Must have a way to switch from line power to battery power AND BACK without disrupting operation.

Must have a way to turn OFF power completely (to prevent draining the battery pack)

Must operate or more than 3 hours

NUC sized

Should have a way to gracefully power-down the Pi

Must have a way to swap the SD card without dissasembly
LiPi Parts
Raspberry Pi 3 ~$35

5V UBEC (Hobbywing - Accepts 5.5 - 26V) ~$3

3 x 18650 LiPo Cells (3800mAh) ~$8

5.5MM x 2.1mm DC Power Jack ~$1

Rocker Switch ~$12

Momentary Switch ~$5.59

Lithium Ion Battery Charger w/Protection ~$1

JST Connectors ~$0.60

Walkera Connectors (x 3) ~$0.40

Total: ~$51
Power Calculations:
~5 Watt/Hours

Each Cell can provide (3800 x 3.7 = ) ~14 Watt/Hours

We have ~42 Watt/Hours of capacity

But we don't run down all the way... 30% is when the protection circuit will kick in.

So we should count on 29 Watt hours of USABLE power

29 / 5 = Just under 6 hours AT FULL POWER

Shutting down WiFi/Bluetooth and not pegging 100% power should give us close to 8 hours.
