I understand the Euler power can be used for this, but I'm specifically after pushing 5V in via pins 2 & 4 via the Pi-2 header. Can someone verify that I'll not damage the Pine doing that? I've got a Pi-Hat that provides power, supervision & backup battery. It's a "back power" design : https://github.com/raspberrypi/hats the link talks about powering via the GPIO header.
Thoughts?
I can confirm that you can power the pine64 with 5v via the Pi-2 connector, with +5v on 4, and GND on 6. When the power jumper is set to DC5v (as opposed to BAT), pints 2&4 appear to be connected to the 5v power in path from the USB, and also connect to the Euler DC-in header.
that's great! thanks for the detailed response.
