 ## Battery Pads
 
-There are two elongated pads on the back of the micro:bit. These allow you to connect a battery holder directly, instead of via the JST connector.

 ### V2 revision
 
 In the <span class="v2">V2</span> board revision, the 3V lozenge is connected to the 3V ring on the edge connector.

-- You can now source power from the elongated pads if you are making an accessory. They are consistent with the power architecture of the edge connector.

 The nRF52 supplies 300mA to drive the board.   110mA is reserved for powering on-board components. **190mA** is then available for accessories.
