      I received my m5stack fire kit today, so I'm quite new to this. I wrote a program that shows whether or not the battery is charging (using power.isCharging()). If I run it with the USB connected to the Fire, it shows as charging. However, if I run it with the USB connected to the M5GO CHG Base, it does not show as charging. Is this expected?

        Hi @michaelblight

        yes, that is to be expected. The M5GO CHG Base has it's own charger IC which is used in this case.

        Thanks
