Open plotter power down - Techstyle - 2019-11-22

obviously, closing down the PI properly is the way OP and the PI should be operated but on a boat I am usually trying to get everything closed down and stowed before I leave the boat and often just want to hit the DC master and cut all power.  I wondered if anybody had connected a UPS type device that would safely shutdown the PI in the event of Power loss/removal?

I saw PIJuice and this looked like a good option - anybody try it?

My answer is yes. I went even a step further with the UPS challenge Smile

Great work! Did you configure the PI Juice to automatically power down on removal of the boat power supply and auto startup on reconnection?
