Powering Arduino Esp32 Wroom

Community General Discussion
1

Recently I'm trying to learn the Arduino Esp32 Wroom version, just on blinking an led first. The arduino Esp32 Wroom works very well when powering with Laptop-USB and also Power Bank-USB.

After that I tried to supply it with two AA 1.5V voltage through the Vin Pin and GND. The Led on the Board shines but slightly dim compared to the usb. With 2 AA batteries, the Board could not Connect to my wifi at home even when I restart it (The Laptop and Power Bank works very fast to connect my wifi)

Kindly teach me how to power up the Arduino ESP32 Board in a proper way and correct any mistakes done by me. And what voltage should I supply to the board, If it is around 3.7 V, how to do it ?

Hello alanesq thanks for the reply, I have seen the link before actually. However the datasheet shown from the vendor shows absolute maximum of 3.6V. Should I source with over 3.6V then ? What is the best way to supply it with 3.3-3.6V since 3V does not work as i mentioned earlier
