Hello,
I will like to increase the charge current of my battery of 3.7V using a MKR WAN 1310 arduino but it is limited to 100mA and this is not enough to charge my battery with a solar panel since the system consumes around 60mA. I try to increase the charge current using the Arduino_PMIC library but it is not working. Does anyone know how to do this?
Thank you very much.
Sofia

My question is if the Arduino MKR WAN 1310 is limited to 100MA for charging the battery. I Would also like to know if it is possible to increase to be able to charge the battery faster.
Best regards,
Sofia
I am only using an Arduino Wan 1310 connected to a battery using the JST connector and I have try with my computer and with a solar panel (with a solar regulator) to power the system trough the USB. And the maximum charge that I can get for the battery is 100mA.
It was set there for a reason, based on the potential batteries they used when designing the device. What batteries do you have? what is there capacity? There rated maxim charge current? These are critical factors that need to be know before increasing the charge rate. If you over do it, the battery will be a great one shot piece of firework that tends to set surround materials on fire.
