The USB 1200mA Boost Converter is a compact solution for portable power. It utilizes a high-frequency switching architecture to achieve an efficiency of up to 96%. Whether you are using a single 18650 Lithium battery, two AA batteries, or a NiMH cell, this board will boost that low voltage to a rock-solid 5V. It features an onboard LED indicator and a standard USB female port, making it plug-and-play for any USB-powered device.
Ultra-Compact: Smaller than a postage stamp, fits into any project box or even a pocket-sized Altoids tin.
High Efficiency: Up to 96% energy conversion, meaning less heat and longer battery life.
Integrated USB Port: Standard USB-A female output for direct connection to charging cables or microcontrollers.
Wide Input Range: Works with anything from 2V to 5V (Best performance at 3V+).
LED Status Indicator: Built-in light to show when the output power is active.
