LilyPad Simple & Bluetooth

Hi Guys, first post ever!

Here it goes....

Because of the added battery charging circuitry the Simple is unable to power a device from the FTDI header meaning that the Bluetooth Mate is no longer plug'n'play compatible.

To get the bluetooth mate working with the LilyPad Simple board can I plug the Bluetooth Mate directly into the FTDI pins on the board and then power it using the in-built power supply socket with a LiPo batteries plugged into the socket?

Any advice is much appreciated, ta
