Nicla Sense board: battery connector hard to find

[dansam]

we just purchased and testing a couple of Niclas Sense boards and very happy with them.

However it seams very difficult to source a preassembled battery connector and therefore build a truly "mobile" IoT device. Could you please recommend a purchase and reference part number for either a complete LiPo battery including cable or for a connector/cable already assembled?

Hello, 

I will give you some comment after checking. 

Thank you.

well, ....the products you recommended are not ok as they have a connector not compatible withe the one on the board.

I can't find the right battery + connector for digikey, but this post should be helpful.

Hi Dansam,

We have exactly the same issue: did you manage to find a pre wired battery with the right connector? I looked at lipobatteries.net, but they charge 500 dollars for one 400 mah lipo battery, which seems a bit ridiculous...

Kind regards,
