- Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2025Works well for powering my PI, cord length is a good size for what i use it for. Seems durable and its a power cable that is easy to use. Is compatible with other Usb devices as well.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2024I've tried multiple power solutions for my Raspberries but none give the results of individual power supplies designed specifically for the task. I run four Pis in a UCTRONICS rack mount, each with an SSD drive rather than Micro SD cards. This power supply runs everything I throw at the Pis and never throttles. The 'vcgencmd get_throttled" command always returns "throttled=0x0" regardless of load when using this power supply. Other power supplies and multi-port USB chargers will return other throttled statuses including "throttled=0x500000" which indicates throttling due to undercurrent.
My only nitpicks with these chargers are:
1) The cables are very stiff and hard to route neatly into my rack mount
2) The magnet at the USB end of the cable is very large and interferes with cable routing as well
3) The cables are permanently attached to the brick and can't be replaced in case of a short, etc.
I highly recommend this power supply and have bought four of them so far and will continue to do so as I expand my Pi fleet. I do wish they would offer a larger power supply that could run multiple Pis to eliminate all the redundant wall bricks.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 4, 2024Great power supply and USB charger.
It was originally bought in 2020 to power a Raspberry Pi 4, but has seen a lot of extra use as a USB-C charger, because the output is up to 3.5A.
It is shown in the pic charging a Playstation 5 controller, just one typical example use.
The CanaKit power supply is silent to my ears, with no troublesome high pitched whine or any switching noise. Build quality is great, the plastics are solid and the connector itself is also of high quality.
It's built well and has stood the test of time. A recommended purchase!

- Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2025It was easy to put together. Handled the heat well. Compatible with raspberry pie 4. Functioned as described. Build solid. Would buy again.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2020It does what it is supposed to do; the PI does not suffer power undervoltage even when overclocked; but there is a large flaw which is that the power supply has no switch; so you plug it in and the PI goes on and stay on until you unplug it.
You can solve the issue by adding a switch between the power supply and the pi; but feels like the switch should be on the cable already
- Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2025I needed a new power supply for my Raspberry PI, this did the trick!
- Reviewed in the United States on October 27, 2023I'm running two of these each powering a Raspberry Pi 4B 8GB in an Argon One case (hence supporting the accessory board and M2 SSD) as well as various USB accessories. Each are running perfectly with no power issues.
You may think your Raspberry Pi is running ok with that "rando" USB charger you grabbed out of a drawer but it may be silently screaming. Here is a quick command you can issue that will indicate if your board has detected an undervolt since power-on or return "ok" if not:
dmesg | grep -iC 3 "undervoltage detected" || echo "ok"

- Reviewed in the United States on November 23, 2023It took me a few months to finally get a Raspberry Pi 4 without paying a premium price but now that I have it, I need to power it. This power supply is perfect. Not a lot to say about it other than: Plug it in and it works. If I had anything more to say about it, it would be negative and since I don't have anything negative to say, this review is done.

- HiFi JoeReviewed in the United Kingdom on September 27, 2023
1.0 out of 5 stars Not a three pin UK plug therefore cannot use after long wait to receive.
Comes with a fixed flat 2-pin type plug, no idea what country that is for, and not a UK 3-pin plug and no adapter supplied, so useless for me after waiting weeks for delivery. Doesn't mention plug type at all in product details.
- Alan HooperReviewed in Canada on January 11, 2021
5.0 out of 5 stars It works
It powers my Raspberry Pi 4 with no problem. With a 3 amp PS I kept getting low voltage warnings, with this 3.5 amp unit there is no more warnings.

3.0 out of 5 stars U.S. plug only so need to get adapter for use in AU
Suspect the unit is perfect but the item did not list its plug type and so I now have a U.S. only one. bought the right one from another supplier so not held up much.
