The Lipo shim module worked as expected. And fits in perfectly. But I had some hard time soldering the pico to shim (I am bad at soldering). Wish there had been an option where it snaps in or plugs without any soldering.

Attached this to my Pico for a battery on a water pump project and makes it super easy to connect power and have a power button to cycle it.

Works really well. Great fit for the pico. My only issue is that it seems to have developed a high pitch whine a week or so after I got it on a breadboard. Doesn't seem to have caused any issues though.

It was so simple to fit to the Pico headers. Battery power works perfectly

These shims are great. They sit well under the Pico (whether a wireless one, or one without wireless) and enable it to charge and then run without being connected to the USB power supply. I can also read the state of the battery through the analogue input, even when I'm using Microblocks.fun as the programming environment. A very useful product. I can now build a number of battery powered Picos, including using one for a GCSE Design and Technology Product.

Really easy to use, and with a little kapton tape on the back of the Pico it can be very low profile.
