While trying to remove a battery connector glued and soldered to the battery pins of the XIAO ESP32C3, I accidentally ripped off the pins. It seems impossible to solder to something to the remains now.
I have a standalone battery management board that outputs about 4V. Is there any way to power the XIAO ESP32C3 without using the battery pins, possibly with a step down or boost converter? I have though about soldering it to the USB pins but this seems like it might not be compliant with the USB spec.
