The Battery Shield powers your OpenMV Cam from a 1.8V to 5.5V source connected using a standard 2.1mm DC barrel jack. This is perfect for powering your OpenMV Cam from three alkaline batteries in series using a standard battery holder with a 2.1mm DC plug. Two alkaline batteries in series also work, although the full capacity of both batteries cannot be used completely before the battery shield shuts down. You may attempt to use four alkaline batteries in series; however, the fully charged voltage of four alkaline batteries in series may slightly exceed the onboard buck/boost converter's maximum allowed voltage. Proceed with caution. The shield also features a wide voltage range 6-36V input, which is robust to reverse voltage and features robust transient surge protection. Use this input to power your OpenMV Cam from 12/24V power supplies without having to worry about damaging your camera. The wide range voltage supply outputs 5.6V on VIN via an ideal OR'ing diode so that you can power
