@teastain2, just wanted to thank you. Your answer nudged me to search for another type of solution and I figured out a way to make it work with the USB-C.
Thanks a lot!

@teastain2 hey Terry, thanks!
I noticed that people had this issue, but wasn't completely sure it applied to my situation as well.

I wonder if it has anything to do with the firmware... Or it's just a hardware thing?

Hello

I'm tinkering with a T-Camera S3.
I flashed it with ESP Home and everything works fine on USB power: the display, the camera, the PIR sensor, etc. It took sometime to nail it, but it worked out.

I have been trying for some days now to power it up via the JST-PH (5V or 3.3V) or JST-GH connectors. Unfortunately that yielded no results. The board does not power up.

Any ideas what I could try? Or how to go about figuring this out?
I am somewhat new to electronics, but I am very willing to read and learn.
