Hey, I’m trying to make a handheld emulation console with a cm4, and I’m wondering how to power it, I can’t seem to find straight information, some people say I need 2 Amps some say 3. Then I also would like to know what do I actually need to power it, like I’ll need a charging circuit and probably a voltage booster unless there’s one with all of it. I plan to power with a lipo battery, not a portable power bank nor do I want to use a hat.
Thanks
