What problem does it solve?

The PiSugar 3 battery hat enables portable, safe Raspberry Pi power with integrated battery monitoring, wake scheduling, and a reliable shutdown workflow, so you can run Pi projects off a LiPo battery without fear of data loss or unexpected power loss.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • I2C battery monitoring at address 0x57 for real-time voltage and charge status
  • Pushbutton-powered wake/on/off control with configurable behavior
  • Safe OS shutdown with automatic power cut after shutdown using PiSugar firmware
  • Wake alarms via RTC and pisugar-server HTTP/WebSocket API for scheduled operation
  • Broad Raspberry Pi compatibility (Zero to Pi 5) for portable, headless deployments

Quick Start

Connect the PiSugar 3 to the Raspberry Pi, enable I2C, and verify battery status and safe shutdown using the pisugar-server.
