ThingPlus C WRL-15663

Hey all.

We plan to power this board at VUSB with a regulated 5V, stepped down from 9-12. No battery.

Is it safe to USB debug this thing while powered from the regulated 5V, which is needed for other components.

It says 5V from USB will override battery through a p-channel MOSFET when both are connected, but knowing that the battery would be slightly less than 5V, we wanted to check if anyone had used this board this way before plugging in.

Thanks in advance!
