This is a hardware fix for the PBP not waking from sleep.
My intent is to just have it plugged in most of the time but this will have a python script running on pbp to check battery voltage eg. between 20-80% and then tell the charger to stop charging or to charge.
This whole thing works. I was just concerned with the temperatures... maybe there is an obvious reason you should not do this.
With a bench top power supply it pulls 5V at 2.58A when the battery is in 50% range... maybe it pulls more when battery is near 0%.
I measured 106F bottom of the PBP case and 122F on charger surface. It was 80F in the room (AC broken).
