However, there is one minor concern I've run into, this particular power supply is not always supplying enough power to my Pi 3B+
-
Connected tv via hdmi and turned on unit...red power light consistent and on but no ACT light and no video signal
-
I would recommend buying just the raspberry pi and a compatible power supply elsewhere.
-
Buying the separate is more expensive, and this is the best power source I've found for the pi.
-
a faulty power connection (internal) problem thus returned it for another.
-
I do not think it is a bad power brick, I bought two and both are doing the same thing.
-
I prefer reliable power from a power supply rather than a USB cable, so I recommend this kit
-
Need to get a better power supply
-
I am giving 4 stars because if you run an HDD plus the pi, the power adapter does seem to loose its ability to power both after about a year of use.
-
The power adapter from the CanaKit may not be outputting sufficient power
-
The power supply provides more than enough power, the heat syncs keep everything cool despite my overclock settings (70C at peak load, 60-65C for normal load).Canakit provides the best hardware in my experience.
-
The power supply came with a micro-usb extender that included a power switch - much more convenient than unplugging every time
-
Have a good quality power supply that can supply at least 2.5 amps @ 5
