The Wakizashi Boost is so named because it’s a a slightly modified clone of a larger project out there. It features a charge pump to run the circuit on higher voltages for increased headroom and performance. While not exactly a super easy build, it certainly fits the mold of a perfect beginner project. If you’re looking for a great clean boost with high performance features, look no further!
