Help choosing a Lipo Charger+Boost+PowerBank

Hi everyone!

First time posting!
Looking for some advice choosing the right product.
I have a small project that is powered by a single cell lipo battery.
I need the ability to safely charge, step-up the voltage to 5v, and provide anoutput to use the device to charge another device (phone, etc…). Also need the ability to operate the device while charging.

I was initally looking at the Adafruit Powerboost 1000.
Yet, I came across th Lipo Rider, which seems it may fill the requirements.

Curious if anyone has some other recommendations or experience with the Lipo Rider or another module.

Thanks for any help!

If you want ease of use and community support, Adafruit PowerBoost 1000** is a good choice. Consider it for smaller power requirements. If you need a higher output current or want a cost-effective solution, the Seeed Lipo Rider or DFRobot Gravity Solar Power Manager are excellent alternatives.
