Possum Jenkins Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 You can power the Pi from the isolator and then power the boss seperately so the answer is probably yes. Take note of any required jumper settings though mentioned in the isolator manual. You could use the 3a for the 'dirty' side then use the 1a for the boss if you found that 1a was not enough to power isolator & pi or vice versa.. The 3A requirement is a little generous imo but it may need this much depending on how much of the pi's resources you're using ie BT, WIFI, HDMI etc. As a guide I'm running a PI 3b+ from a battery bank & the Katana stack on top from a 2.5a linear. This is running picoreplayer with some underclocking and a few bits turned off, I never see any low power warnings & all is well, no sd probs, crashing etc.. Link to comment
