I placed an order without confirming if there is still stock for these. Just curious if I was lucky enough or if I'll need to wait for the next batch for mine.

Oh no, I didn't even think about that! I ordered mine a week or so ago.

This pre-order has ended. These are now in stock and available to buy.
This line in the first post, I believe is accurate, so they should be in stock.

@winnetouch @VeteranGamer That is unusual. As long as you have the script configured correctly, or use the default pins it should shutdown.

Make sure the script has "AdafruitPowerBoost = False" in the config section at the top and the pins match where you have connected the shutdown "Off" pin.

@VeteranGamer Yes, @HoolyHoo is right. The first few lines of the safe_power_monitor.py script is used to tweak the config. You can usually edit using nano.

I am using this script: https://github.com/Camble/Safe-Power-Monitor

I followed the instructions and seemed to work properly the first time I run the script manually (I haven't tried to run off the battery yet). So I have entered console mode, and when I write "sudo shutdown -h now", the rpi has shown this messages:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_obrI ... 5zaUE/view and gets "stuck". If I try to shut down ES it the same happens.

I cannot shut it down with the switch. I have to unsolder some cable from the battery (or any other).

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_obrI ... ZEaTQ/view
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_obrI ... pYdmM/view

Can anybody help me please?

EDIT: Camble adviced me about the bad wiring from safe shutdown to rpi. It was ABSOLUTELY wrong. I don't know what I did in the first place... Sorry about that. I'm totally a noob.

Now, while the rpi is on (working normally), if I move the switch to 'off', the script runs and shuts the rpi down. That's great.
But when I try to shut it down through the ES menu I still get the kernel panic, but If I move the switch to 'off', the rpi shuts down. I assume that's the normal behaviour because Camble said the switch is in 'on' position while running the script manually.

Hello Camble !
I’m working on another type of project and i was wondering if i can use your board without a powerboost or a bangoog stuff... basically, i’ll power my device directly from usb and i wamted to use your board between the power USB cord and the RPi. Will that work ?
