CanaKit 5V 2.5A Raspberry Pi 3 Power Supply / Adapter / Charger

The CanaKit 2.5A Raspberry Pi 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. This adapter has been incorporated as an inline noise filter for highest stability and reliable operation.

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 it's 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. 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.

  • This adapter has been specially designed and tested for the new Raspberry Pi 3.

    Product 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.
