Just battery, no reporting of battery levels.
I was mildly disappointed the S model doesn't have any level reporting like the 2 or 3, but it wasn't nessessary, so the device does what I need. Allows for IoT device portability, I can safely unplug my pi zero and take it on the road and plug it back in where available without having to shutdown or reboot. Approximately 6-8 hours on a charge at average usage. If you need features like auto save/shutdown or the built in clock, spend a few bux more on the Sugar 2 or 3. If all you want is portability, can't go wrong with the less expensive S.

You aren't going to find better for this price. I tried. Go ahead. You try too. You'll see.
I bought this for my Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W. I am working on a project that requires the device to be mobile and this fit what I needed. Small size, small profile, big battery life (for the size anyway). The setup is extremely simple. Line up the pogo-pins with the GPIO pins, tighten all four screws from the Pi to the PiSugar, connect your battery, turn it on. I expected to have to go get drivers, modify some stuff, buy extra pieces. Nope. Everything you need is right here. Now I will say that if you have a HAT involved in your build, this might cause a slight frustration as far as the screws, and good luck finding a case that fits this properly at a good cost, but that is the fault of others and not this device. My only REAL gripe with this thing is the cost. It is extremely worth it, and I'm going to buy more so it obviously isn't super high but when you consider that the cost of this is more than the Pi Zero 2 W itself, it kind of changes things. Again, it is EXTREMELY WORTH IT though, just a hard pill to swallow when you're clicking that "Place Order" button is all. Anyway, time to add another to the cart.

Try straight away, you may have a dud !
Will not work with the sugar pi whisper, keeps nothing I tried works, tried different pi's as well, by the time I got to the project outside exchange window!
