I have duplicated your work and it works; Thank you!<br /> <br /> I realized that VDD_BAT merely needs to be tied to 3.3V for it to work. There is no need to include a second 12V to 5V converter specifically for VDD_BAT. I have verified this with my setup and it led to further power saving (1.524W down to 1.44W at idle). Please consider trying it on your own Raspberry Pi too!<br /> <br /> Regards,<br /> Ben</div>
