This is an "appallingly small" add-on shield for ESPea that mounts on the bottom, USB-end of the ESPea by soldering the board to the GND, 3V3. The heart of the board is the LTC4054 battery management chip by Linear Technology. The board has +/- through-hole mounting holes for a JST LiPo battery connector (supplied with the LiPo charger) and for an external DC power supply.
