Autonomie GPi Case + Pi zero 2 W

[cdtpepette]

Bonjour et grand merci à toute la communauté.
J'utilise Recalbox 7.2.2 sur Gpi Case avec Pi zero et j'en suis très satisfait.
Je me pose la question d'un upgrade Pi zero 2 en particulier pour ne plus avoir à utiliser pisnes mais Libretro Snes9x.
Quand est-il de l'autonomie en comparaison du pi zero.
Merci pour vos retours.

@cdtpepette near 2 hours, use top brand batteries

Hi, take care, the GPiCase + the Pi02w card are not totally compatible. I often have a power problem with using batteries. No pb while using the gpi power cable.

Thanks for your reply. I'll wait and see.

what problem? mine is perfectly functioning
maybe BETA software is the problem, no optimization.
maybe in 3/4 week we can have a stable version.

I've just configured my GPi Case/Pi Zero 2 W and it won't boot on battery power - seems to get stuck
in a loop between the initial "have fun with recalbox" screen and the "installing GPi Case" screen . So, has to be plugged in to USB to boot up and then can be removed from the power connector and will run on batteries quite happily.

So, I guess, some part of the boot process draws just a tiny amount too much power and causes it to go into a bit of a meltdown.

@ahchay i have the save behaviour, and it's the same when Recalbox is installed and i ran it with battery. It loops.

@scavy slight update, I gave my (eneloop pro) batteries a full charge and it now managed to boot part the setup screen.

I don't get the installing gpi case screen any more, so not sure if the problem is permanently resolved or if it will start failing again when the batteries run down a bit, could be that now the safe shut down is executing it doesn't need to do that particular pay of the boot sequence any more
