I am running a raspberry Pi 8Gb of RAM running Kali Linux, an active cooler, and a ten inch GeekPi screen. When I hooked everything up the Pi ran but the screen went dark. I am sure this is due to the screen not getting enough power but I am not sure what UPS I should get to replace my current one (A waveshare UPS with three 18650 Li ion batterys). I am currently looking at the Geekworm X1200 and considering plugging the screen into the XH2.54-2P connector. How well would this work? I am using using all this to make a custom laptop and I need something that can last a while and has pass through charging.
