Firebeetle not charging battery
Tony.BURNS 2025-12-19 13:03:21 8 Views1 Replies I've bought 2 Firebeetle ESP32. I'm using them with a Turnigy 1200mah 3.7V LiPo.
When connected to a USB charger, neither Feather will charge the battery. Battery is at 3.5V. I've tried 2 similar batteries. Neither will charge.
One Feather shows a blue LED at the centre; the other doesn't.
I've checked the battery polarity and it is correct.
Help please.

I think I have found the problem.
The Firebeetle won't charge with a standard 5v USB-C charger. It needs a 6/9/12 volt USB-C charger.
