Hi,
I have connected a Raspberry Pi 3B+ with a Witty Pi 4 L3V7 and want to power everything with a power bank, running a schedule via the Witty Pi. Unfortunately, both of my power banks go into sleep mode as soon as the Raspberry Pi is turned off, regardless of the dummy load parameters I've already experimented with. Is there a way to further increase the dummy load to prevent auto-off? Which power banks or power management solutions have proven to be reliable for such projects (I use it for BirdNet)?
Thank you,
Moritz

I have discribed how dummy load works and how to increase current here: https://www.uugear.com/forums/technial-support-discussion/wittypi-4-mini-increase-the-dummy-load-via-software/#post-215
