To work autonomously, the CanSat must be powered with a battery. This point have been adressed with a {{pl|534|Adafruit PowerBoost 500}} breakout board:
{{ADFImage|PowerBoost-500-Chargeur-01.jpg|320px}}
The {{pl|534|Adafruit PowerBoost 500}} is a breakout board able:
* to discharge a Lipo battery to generates 5V output (500mA max)
* to charge the Lipo battery when connected to an external 5V supply
* to do the both operations at the same time.
The great thing about the PowerBoost is that it can use the Pico VBUS to recharge the Lipo. So, no need of an external power connexion to refill the Lipo (just plug you Pico to an USB Power source).
All of this have been adressed with great details in the '''Pico Powering''' section.

== Sparing Power ==
The best approach to spare the energy is to consume the LiPo power as the last moment (to keept as must as power as possible for the launch).
There are several options for that:
# Keeping the Pico Powered via USB as much as possible (with a computer or a powerbank).
# Disabling the PowerBoost (and power down the complete projet):
#* '''WITHOUT''' Cansat Kit: Use a slide switch (or a jumper) to tie the '''PowerBoost EN''' to the GND
#* '''With''' Cansat Kit: The slide switch (or jumper) can be placed near of the border of the board.

{{dbox-orange|Keeping the Pico Powered before launch have the advantage of having the software already running.<br />Powering-up at the last moment is also the risk of discovering an unespected issue (depending on how the setup have been tested). }}
