## Overview

The CanaKit 5V 2.5A Power Supply is a UL Listed, micro USB adapter engineered exclusively for Raspberry Pi 2 and 3 models. Featuring a 5-foot cable with an integrated noise filter, it delivers a stable 5V DC output at 2.5A, ensuring reliable operation even under full load or overclocking conditions. This power supply prevents voltage drops and unexpected reboots common with generic adapters, making it the trusted choice for serious Pi enthusiasts.

## 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.

Review: FINALLY a cable that provides the correct amount of power to the Raspberry Pi 3 B+. - Good quality, works very well. This adapter actually supplies exactly the amount of power my finicky Raspberry Pi 3 B+ needs. I have bought and returned other brand "Pi 3 B+" Power Supply Cables because they didn't actually provide the correct power load to the pi, causing the pi to either report "under voltage" or in some cases refuse to even boot; So I was so happy to find out that the CanaKit Raspberry Pi 3 B+ Power Supply cable actually worked correctly for my 3 B+. It has been such a nightmare to find a cable that actually provided the correct amount of power, I'm so glad I discovered this CanaKit cable because it actually works! I highly recommend this brand, and I know that I personally will never by from any other brand again.
Review: Reliable power for older Pi's - Over the years there's been a lively discussion about the "proper" way to power Raspberry Pi computers. Some folks are purists that insist on Pi-approved power modules, lest you encounter boot-up or runtime instability signified by the dreaded lightning bolt icon, flashing LED, or low power warning message. Other folks are happy to try, and run with, generic (cheap) power modules that may have been included for free with other equipment, or sold for $5 at a convenience store. Will any micro-USB power brick do? Depends on whom you ask! If you want one less worry in your life, for not a ton of money, then this CanaKit is just the ticket. Its output is actually 2.5A rather than the more common 2A, so that's a bit of headroom. It runs cool and, being standard micro USB, has no connector problems. Along the line I've used it to power all of my prehistoric Pi's - models 1, 2, and 3. No issues.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the brand/manufacturer of this PS?**
A: CanaKit trademark on the adapter's sticker and it reads:  Model: DCAR-RSP-2A5, INPUT: 100-240V AC, 50-60 Hz / 0.5A, OUTPUT: 5V DC 2.5A and WWW.CANAKIT.COMI use it to charge and power my Galaxy Note 2 And Galaxy TAB 10 because the the original Samsung power supplies micro USB connectors became sloppy and hit poor connectivity. This adapter solved that problem. Well worth the money and I will buy another for convenience now this you reminded me to take a look.

**Q: Will this work with the new Raspberry Pi 4?**
A: The pi 4 REQUIRES 5 V., 3.5 A. available on Amazon

**Q: Will this power the new RP 2 with all 4 USB ports in use?**
A: Yes. That is the spec powersupply for the RP2. As far as USB... All depends on what you put in it. Keyboard, mouse, thumb drive and WiFi good to go.

**Q: will this work with a printer switch usb 5 volt**
A: If it has the same connector, yes. This one has higher current capability than most 5V USB adapters which is good. Any cell phone charger would also work but may not have enough current capability for your switch.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ solid performer but needs switch
*by E***E on July 14, 2026*

Overall, a well made and well performing product. One thing though, it does not have an in-line switch, so you'll have to get a separate plug-switch if you want that functionality.
