Hello all,
I just got my uconsole built with a cm5 and the AIOv2 from hacker gadgets installed. It all works great, but was looking into options to add cellular connectivity back to the system while keeping the AIOv2. My plan was to source a LTE module like this and make an adapter to plug it in to the internal usb-c port on the AIOv2. However based on the post from hacker gadgets, where they had a bad resistor value on a batch of AIOv2 boards, it seems the AIOv2 is configured for 1.58A max draw on that port and the LTE board seems to need 3.0A peak draw at times. So it seems this would not work cleanly, and may need a higher current source from elsewhere on the board. Any ideas on a good source for that? I was looking at this post where it looks like someone managed to do it but are using an AIOv1 and are routing it via a ribbon cable elswhere. Also cannot tell what LTE board they are using, maybe there is a lower power LTE option out there vs. the one I found I don’t know.
