<![CDATA[[Solved]Disable battery]]>I’m building a project to place it in a car dashboard and I am wondering if the internal battery of the basic M5Stack Core can be disabled.
The reason is that I only want the device to be on when car power is sent through usb c cable and off as soon I switch off the car power when locking car doors.
Does anyone knows how can I disable the internal battery without having to press a button? Thanks

I think there is also a way to mimic the power button to do it
