Description
If you have ever seen the “yellow lightning bolt” icon on your Raspberry Pi 3 or Zero, you are suffering from a weak power supply. Standard phone chargers often struggle to maintain voltage when the CPU hits 100%. The 5V 3A Power Adapter is the solution. By providing 3 Amps of current—more than the standard 2.5A recommendation—this adapter ensures rock-solid stability even when you connect power-hungry USB peripherals like hard drives or the Raspberry Pi Camera Module.
Why Choose 3 Amps?
Electronic components degrade over time, and cables add resistance. A 5V 3A Micro USB Adapter provides “headroom.” It can easily handle the peak power spikes of the Raspberry Pi 3B+ (which is the most power-hungry of the older models) without the voltage dipping below 4.8V, which causes system crashes and SD card corruption.
Convenient ON/OFF Switch
The most annoying part of using a Raspberry Pi is pulling the plug to turn it off. This adapter features a tactile push-button switch built directly into the cable.
- Save Your Port: No more wearing out the delicate Micro USB connector on your board.
- Easy Reboots: Simply press the button to cut power and press again to boot up your Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+.
Universal Compatibility
While optimized for single-board computers, this 5V 3A Micro USB Adapter is a versatile tool for your workbench. It is perfect for:
- NVIDIA Jetson Nano: Many developer kits run on 5V via Micro USB.
- Arduino Boards: Power your Arduino Leonardo or Mega projects that have high current draw.
- Home Assistants: Great for powering smart speakers or LED strip controllers.
