Minty Pi won't turn on with Battery

Post by ItsUrBoiBrad » Sat Aug 10, 2019 3:47 pm

Hello all. I've recently put together my minty pi and I'm super excited to get it working. However once I've finally wired the thing, I can't seem to get the pi turned on. I made sure to test all pads for continuity and I've checked the voltage running into the pcb is at least 3V. The power disappears when the switch is turned off. And other than that the Raspberry pi is completely functional and was plugged into my computer this morning. I followed the provided wiring diagram and can't seem to find any flaws. any help or tips would be greatly appreciated :)

We discussed this on the Discord server, but looks like the 5V gpio is NOT properly soldered to the pcb and without that there is no turning the Pi on.

Don't contact me about obtaining my board files (as you will not get them). If my Boards or PCB Kits are sold out, they will be restocked as soon as I can get them and there is demand for them. You can join the mailing list on my Website to be notified when they are available.
