Additional power information↵

IMPORTANT!!!

  • SIM800L needs external power supply 5V/2A
  • This can be bypassed with capacitor 16V 2200uF and provide stability during Calls & SMS due to higher power draw.
    • Soldering could be dangerous due to high heat 🔥 and fume exhausts 💨, so if unsure how to do it properly you could ask local repair shop to do it for you!
