The Batuino is a battery-friendly Arduino compatible board. It can be powered from one cell of Li-ion rechargeable battery or up to three cells of alkaline batteries. An on-board USB port is used to power, program, and charge simultaneously.
What inspired you to make this project?:
I thought that powering Arduino with 5 Volts from rechargeable batteries or low-voltage power sources was not so easy for beginners. So I decided to put all of the required parts together, and that led me to start this project.
