Product Review
Features:
- USB Spec Compliant with 5.25V No-Load Voltage
- Over-Current Short Circuit Protection @ 3A
- Over-Temperature Protection
- Certified for True 5.0V @ 2A
Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ typically uses 1A. It will use 2A when running benchmarks. MicroUSB connectors are small and can only deliver around 2.5A of current. Any power supply rated higher either lacks short circuit safety protection or advertise raw supply capability and not current delivery capability.
- OPTIMIZED RASPBERRY PI 3 MODEL B+ POWER SUPPLY: Raspberry Pi 3 boards use a lot of current and we have optimized our power supplies to be USB spec compliant for safety while optimizing voltage stability and current delivery.
- EXCLUSIVE POWER STATUS LED: Know when power is on via the inline power status LED built directly into our power supply cable. Never guess whether there is power or not going to your Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+.
- INLINE POWER SWITCH WITH PUSH BUTTON: We were the first manufacture to design inline power switching directly into the power supply for Raspberry Pi boards and we continue to lead with design excellence. Other manufacturers have copied our design but we pay extensive attention to detail to the whole power delivery circuit.
- QUALITY IN DESIGN: Our cabling are thicker than our competitors and use pure copper for lower voltage drop at high current. Our connectors are gold plated for corrosion resistance and longer usable life. MicroUSB connector clips keep excellent hold to prevent accidental power disconnect.
- MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE WITHOUT VOLTAGE DROP: High quality capacitors and ICs along with thicker cables and connectors enable optimal voltages and smooth current delivery. Your Raspberry Pi board will maintain maximum performance and not throttle to 600MHz in any workload.
