Description

2.5A is now a requirement for the Raspberry Pi 3. The CanaKit 2.5A Raspberry Pi power supply / adapter has been specially designed and tested for the new Raspberry Pi 3 and incorporates an inline noise filter for highest stability and reliable operation. This power supply differs from typical standard 5V USB power supplies in the market in that it can deliver a full 2.5A and still output a voltage well within the USB minimum voltage specifications. Standard 5V USB power supplies in the market have a high voltage drop when the full current is drawn from them which may cause the Raspberry Pi to reboot unexpectedly. With this power supply, you can power the Raspberry Pi 3 at full load as well as up to 1.2A across the four USB ports. The power supply still has about 0.5A of output power to spare, so even at the maximum current supported by the Raspberry Pi 3, the power supply is not at its absolute maximum. It is also ideal for use by anyone over-clocking the Raspberry Pi which causes higher power requirements that a lower power adapter may not be able to supply.

  • Appears to work -- Using with Raspberry Pi
Note: if laying the board on a desk, the circuit board should be at the top (where you can see the LED flash from time to time). There's a brief manual at the manufacturers (Nova) site. The recent smoke events in the NE US got me researching air quality sensors. My research lead me to learning about sensor components and then on to researching if I could use a sensor with a Raspberry Pi. I own a Raspberry Pi 3 which has been "resting" in a drawer for a few years... More research and I learned how I could use the Pi with this sensor. So, I ordered the sensor. I followed the directions I found and was able to get the system to work. I wasn't sure it was accurate, so last evening, as the AQI was rising, I put it all on my front porch and the initial reading just so happened to match the EPA sensor a few miles away. Good sign. The readings bounced around a bit, as I would expect and I brought it back inside. My purpose is to measure my inside air especially during outside smoke "events" to know what is happening and to measure if countermeasures (air cleaners, their location, etc) are working. As a test, I did run my vacuum cleaner near the sensor and it detected an increase in PM10. The increase in PM2.5 could have been a "rounding error." Finally, a comment about accuracy in more humid environments. As humidity increases, the amount of dust that can be suspended in air increases. Turn on the A/C, the dust in the air decreases because there's less water molecules in the air to support that dust. That this device is detecting less dust in the air after the A/C is turned on is a sign that this device is working. ... show more

  • Perfect power supply for Raspberry Pi 2 Model B!
I purchased this to support my Raspberry Pi 2 and hardware connected by USB, as the original power supply I had did not support multiple items being connected to the Raspberry Pi at one time. I did my research beforehand, and can positively say that this power supply fit all my needs. I am now able to power my Raspberry Pi system, USB Wi-Fi adapter, USB Keyboard, and any additional items without any issues with the system freezing/crashing/etc. Recommended for Raspberry Pi 2 users! ... show more

  • Little expensive, works great
I recently purchased the Raspberry Pi 3 B+ Power Supply and I have to say that it has exceeded my expectations. While it was a bit more expensive than some other options on the market, the quality and reliability of this product make it well worth the investment. The power supply was easy to install and works flawlessly with my Raspberry Pi 3 B+. I haven't experienced any power issues or interruptions since I started using this product, which has given me peace of mind knowing that my Raspberry Pi is receiving the consistent power it needs to function properly. The build quality of the power supply is impressive, with sturdy construction and a sleek design that looks great alongside my other tech equipment. It's clear that a lot of care and attention to detail went into the manufacturing of this product. While it might be a bit more expensive than other options out there, the peace of mind and reliability it provides make it worth the extra cost. If you're looking for a high-quality power supply that you can rely on to keep your Raspberry Pi running smoothly, this is definitely a product worth considering. ... show more

  • Need some juice for your RPi 3? Look no further!
I had an extra Raspberry Pi 3 that I was using. The prior power connector always reported that it was underpowered and so apps would run slow so they wouldn't run well. Decided to get the official Canakit adapter and lo and behold, no more low power warning! Winning!
