CanaKit 3.5A Raspberry Pi 4 Power Supply (USB-C)

Needs a switch

The package was crushed and opened. Its not the one with the switch. And to made things worse, it didnt even work.

Using mine on a Raspberry Pi 4 running Octoprint for extended periods of time. Keeps the pi stably powered for hours so no complaints.

Supplies enough current, more than long enough, the brick doesnt get hot at all.

raspberrypi kernel: [XXXXXXX] Voltage normalised (0x00000000)

First, this is an excellent power supply for the Rpi 4, but I am mostly writing this review

Unfortunately, since its one of the few certified Rpi4 PSUs, its expensive. It would also be nice to use the power connector on the Rpi4, instead of the usb C interface, but I guess whatever. It meets the requirements.

Works as expected.

SSDs connected via USB 3.0 sometimes draw more amps than the stock 5V3A power supply is capable of delivering resulting in the low power “lightning bolt” icon flashing on the screen. This power supply is rated at 5.1V3.5A to handle the extra draw.

After having a oh no moment when my Raspberry Pi 3 B+ wouldnt boot up, I decided to try a CanaKit adapter I had lying around. My Raspberry Pi booted up right away and has been working perfectly.
