==Update History==

'''X1206 V1.1''' was updated to '''X1206 V2.0 '''version on April 7, 2026.The update details are as follows:

*Upgraded to 4-layer PCB for better heat dissipation and stability.

*Supports wide input voltage range: 9–18V.(Recommended Power Adapter:[https://wiki.geekworm.com/PSU60 Geekworm 12 V / 5 A Power Adapter]).

==Overview==

This '''X1206''' is an ultra-compact advanced uninterruptible power supply expansion board designed specifically for the Raspberry Pi 5.~~With~~ its advanced features and robust power backup capabilities, the X1206 is perfect for even the most demanding Raspberry Pi setups.

This '''X1206''' is an ultra-compact advanced uninterruptible power supply expansion board designed specifically for the Raspberry Pi 5. It features a 4-cell Lithium 21700 battery holder, supporting up to 20,000mAh (with 4 cell 21700 batteries), with its advanced features and robust power backup capabilities, the X1206 is perfect for even the most demanding Raspberry Pi setups.

Enhance the reliability and performance of your Raspberry Pi 5B with the X1206 UPS expansion board. Experience peace of mind with its advanced features and robust power backup capabilities. Trust the X1206 to ensure uninterrupted operation and safeguard your valuable data.

'''<span class="tb_red">What is the difference between [[X1206]] and [[X1202]]:</span>'''

<!--

*X1206 uses a wide voltage power input (9V-18V);

*Solves the overheating problem of DC jack power supply

*Uses a higher capacity '''21700''' lithium battery;

-->

*Uses a higher capacity '''21700''' lithium battery to provide longer power supply time;

<!--

* The power supply capacity through the DC jack is greatly increased from 5.5A of [[X1202]] to 10A

-->

==Features==

{| class="wikitable"

|-

|'''For use with''' || Raspberry Pi 5 Only

|-

| '''UPS Output''' ||

* Provides continuous operation for up to 10 hours (duration depends on battery type and applications)

* Supports a maximum current output of '''5.1V 6000mA''', suitable for most Raspberry Pi applications

* Integrated Advanced Power MOSFET with an equivalent of 7mΩ RDS(ON) to minimize power loss

* Convenient pogo pin connection for powering the Pi, eliminating the need for cabling and soldering

* Equipped with XH2.54 connectors and two USB sockets for 5V power output (Share 6000mA current output)

|-

| '''Battery Charging''' ||

* On-board LEDs indicate battery charging and discharging levels of 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%

* Features a 4-cell 21700 battery holder, supporting up to 20,000mAh with four 21700 batteries

|-

|'''Power Input'''||

* Integrated high-efficiency step-down DC-DC converter

* Up to 95% efficiency for optimal power conversion

* The power supply with DC jack can get up to 10A input current, which can achieve 3A fast charging while powering the system. Of course, this also depends on the DC power adapter you use. A good quality power adapter is very important.

* Allows power input from various sources such as a car, solder panel, and more

* '''Compatible with Raspberry Pi USB-C Power Supply'''

|-

|'''Power Management'''||

* Seamless power switching between backup power and power adapter

* On-board push button performs the same actions as the '''RPi 5''''s power button

* Automatically cuts off power when the Pi is shut down
