What is this port below the mBuild port on mBot 2?

#1

I wonder what this port is under mBuild, because I can’t find any documentation…44%20PM

That’s very odd. My mBot 2 doesn’t have a port like that, it only has the mBuild port there. When did you buy this?

#3

Yes, I have about 8 mBot Neo/mBot2 with the same port. I bought them in sep-23

Here’s what my device looks like:

What version of the mBot 2 board do you have? You can find it on the bottom of the board (there should be a sticker and some text on the board itself).

I have the mBot Neo versión! The manual (I forget it in a box until now) said that this port is for an external battery!

Another thing, this can’t be seen on my photo (even in person is hard to see) but it says 3.7V DC

Newer mBot 2 motherboards have an external battery port meant for MakeX Explorer competition, the battery pack is two 21700 cells for a total of 8000mAh capacity.
