Begin by connecting the Battery to the Micro
USB Charging Module (blue board). This is
how you charge the battery with a wall plug
via a USB adapter.
Insert the battery wires into the terminals as
shown (Red to B+, Black to B-) and secure
with solder. Use wire strippers to carefully
remove excess solder, if any, on the tinned
ends of wires in the kit so the ends can be
inserted into the appropriate terminal holes.

When your Battery includes a 2-Pin
JST, solder the Red wire of the 2-Wire
JST connector to the B+ terminal and
the Black wire of the 2-Wire JST
connector to the B-terminal of the
Micro USB Charging Module (blue
board). Thereafter, completely plug
the 2-Pin JST of the Battery into the 2-
Wire JST connector to connect the
Battery to the Charging Module.

Some kits might have the B-/Out-
as one terminal and the B+/Out+ as
one terminal. In that case, combine
black wire ends together and solder
to negative Bat-terminal and
combine red wire ends together
and solder to positive Bat+ terminal

USB Charger Kit Instructions
Before soldering, push switch into
cutout on the side of the wood box
from the outside in. It should fit
snugly, but if you need glue, apply a
small amount to the edge. Be careful
not to glue the switch permanently in
one position.
Solder the Black wire from the IN-
terminal of the USB Booster (green
board) to one Switch pin. Solder the
Black wire from the OUT-terminal of
the Charging Module (blue board) to
the other Switch pin.

Be sure the switch is off. Secure components to
the bottom of the box case with glue or other
adhesive. We recommend using a hot glue gun
for added adhesive as the USB Booster and
Micro USB ports will experience repeated use.
Be sure that the USB and Micro USB ports are
aligned with their respective openings and are
snug against the box sides when securing them in
place.
At this point, you should test
your kit to confirm all
connections are correct. With
the switch off, use a micro USB
charge cable to connect the
Micro USB Charging Module to
a wall outlet or other power
source. A red light on the Micro
USB Charging Module indicates
that the Battery is charging.
The red light switches to blue
when the Battery is fully
charged. Turn the switch on. A
red light on the USB Booster
board indicates power is being
directed to the USB Booster for
charging a device connected to
the standard USB.

USB Charger Kit Instructions
Turn the switch on and the USB Booster
should light up to show it is ready to
charge your devices. After confirming
your Charger Kit is working correctly, you
can now position and secure the top of
the box to complete your kit.
Carefully position the Battery in
the box.

Wiring Diagram
Turn Switch off. Plug a micro USB cable
into the Micro USB Charging Module port
(the blue board) and charge from a wall
outlet or other power source. Charging
with a wall outlet takes approximately 2
hours to fully charge the LiPo Battery
from empty.
To charge your device with the USB
Charger Kit,plug your device’s USB
charging cord into the standard USB
port on the green board. Turn on the
Switch to direct power from the LiPo
Battery to your device.Turn the switch off
when re-charging the Battery of the USB
Charger Kit.
