Battery not charging

Everything is working great and I thought initially yhe battery was charging but now after running on just battyer for a few hours, then plugging in a RPi5 PSU the battery is not charging and has stayed at 55% all night. Info from the cloud that it posts every 10 mins.
I’ve tried different PSUs no difference!

Hey Perky!

A few questions:

  • is this headless or desktop?
  • is the activity LED staying “mostly on” or “mostly off”?
  • is this the 1-cell or 3-cell battery?
  • are you using a USB-C hub or directly plugging into USB1?

Thanks!

Nick.

Hey Nick

Sorry for lack of info!

Running stock standard headless 20.04 UBUTU image
LED is mostly on
Single cell
USB-C direct from genuine RPI 5 PSU so lots of power there into USB 1

Looking at the processes, re htop, I can’t see lots of activity, contant load and the main process is particle-tachyon-rild.

Glenn

OK Found it was the Raspberry white supply. Tried a different cable and adapter and started charging!
