Power Issues

With the latest build I've run into an odd problem. If I have a battery connected, everything works fine. If I try to boot with only the micro USB connected, it will reset after the pi loading screen (just before the splashscreen). I'm not sure what the issue could be so any help would be appreciated.

In the picture I have USB disconnected for troubleshooting.

Looks like the Pi is not getting enough power if it keeps rebooting. Maybe the powerboost1000c needs to detect a battery when smart-loading?

I never had the issue before but I guess I’ll always have a battery connected. Just hoping it’s not an issue that could cause problems.

If that's the case I suggest you go over to https://forums.adafruit.com and post your issues with the powerboost 1000c there. Moderators on the forum are very helpful.
