PowerBank as a UPS, for RaspberryPi

We could make use of a Standard Powerbank, as a cost effective UPS to powerup RaspberryPi. This will be particularly useful, if Pi is serving critical functions for your network 24x7, and you cannot afford any downtime.

Make a note of below important points;

a. Use a PowerBank that meets the Voltage/Current specifications of Pi.

b. The PowerBank should allow PassThrough Charging

(So you could charge your PowerBank and Pi at the same time)

c. The PowerBank should allow Advanced Current Shunt

(Even if you leave the PowerBank, with AC Power the feature will protect from Overcharging).

Moving around the Pi, While its Up and Running !
