We’ve had a number of requests for a battery powering tutorial and here it is! This can be used in conjunction with many of our other tutorials to create any number of portable projects. #BeagleBone

The tutorial covers powering the BB with a battery pack and 5V DC-DC converter. It does not cover suspend, deep sleep, pin wakeup, reading the battery capacity/voltage, charging or charge control.
Thank you for the feedback @Daniel_F_Smith , this is meant to be a beginners tutorial on battery powering. We plan to build on it with subsequent how-tos and will take your suggestions into account. Check back soon for new updates.
