- Q:I have two of the ep-0118. The voltage is rock solid! perfect for the pi4! But after a period of time, the power shuts off to the pi, the battery is not used, and the power to the ups is stable. I can not understand why this happens!
- A：
- May need to upgrade the firmware
- You can contact sales and send you a small fix module, which can solve the problem of automatic shutdown.
- Replace the battery (some poor quality batteries will cause sudden power failure)
Please clone this repository and read PDF file inside the project folder. PS: It needs external hardware to upload firmware.
