Current from UART 5V

rehofman May 2016

I have a SBGCv3.0 revB board. How much current can I draw from the 5V pin on the UART port which is usually used to power the Bluetooth module? I want to power a Raspberry Pi 2/3 over it, so it should be 2 to 2.5 A. Is this possible or is there another 5V pin somewhere on the board?

no, you can not power Pi from it. Get a 5V BEC.

Howdy, Stranger!
