Hi, quick question; what do I need to power Netduino+ with battery, which points to insert +ve & -ve, anything I need to be wary of? Cheers

Hi Stan,

You can connect any power source between the 7,5V and 12V to the Netduino. To do so, place the - pin to Gnd and the + pin to Vin.
Keep in mind that when using motors and other heavy equipment, the battery should also be powerful enough for that. The netduino itself can run for quite some time on a 9V battery.
