Your Pi keeps losing time every power cycle, or it's sitting off the network where it can't grab an NTP fix. That's annoying when your logging, scheduling, or data-stamping depends on a reliable clock. This Jaycar RTC module plugs onto the Pi's GPIO via a 5-pin header and gives you a battery-backed time source that just holds. Based on the DS3231 IC, backed by a CR927 cell. Set it once, power off, power back on – time's still right. No Wi-Fi needed
