    This ? Power from adapter, not from arduino.

      @Fat-Fly - think so, I have not tested it myself but as long as you have enough mA on your charger/power and that chip doesnt limit it somehow i think it will work great.

            I also use this small board for powering the nrf+pa+ln. So far no problems with it!

                If I remember correctly, then this little board has a nice and strong power regulator for 3.3 V on board. On my repeater node I have connected my 5V usb charger to this little board and I use the 3.3 V output to power directly both the pro mini and the nrf.

                If you use the socket on the board to put you nrf in, I would feed the board with a strong 5V source.

                  Okay. I solder wire from nrf socket power directly to arduino nano mini usb connector power wire.

                    I connect nrf socket + pin to Nano 5V pin. Working perfect.

                        Replace LOW with HIGH or MAX for the highest power settings
