@Camble
Perhaps something between 3.6V and 4.0V... to have a good collaboration with the Pololu voltage Regulator (https://www.pololu.com/product/2123.

for me personally, it's important, because I'm using NiMH-batteries.

So I would like to adjust the shutdown-voltage.

Adjustment possible through changing resistors (with resistors or potentiometer) -> GREAT!
Are you sure the banggood power supply supports NIMH ?
It's made for lithium, be careful.

@SidSilver:

I will neither use the banggood nor the adafruit powerboost charger :D . As mentionend I will use the Pololu S7V8F5 and willingly this safe shutdown board.

@johnny-bert I may have resistors I can use to program the comparator with a voltage within your range.

@johnny-bert Can you measure the output voltage of your Pololu and let me know? It won't be exactly 5v. Connect up some stuff to it and measure the voltage.

@Camble
I can do the measurement, but not before tomorrow.


Edit: Multimeter said 4.91V.

Two resistors: 115K & 316K would give you a low batt reading at 3.6v
