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

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

As many others, I use mine to power RigPi. When I was looking at other options I had read reviews wanting a switch, and others wanting a 90 degree end. Both of those are requests I dont understand. When I plugged this into my RigPi server station, the jack is so deep in the housing there is no way a 90 degree connection would have worked. Further I look at it as a computer, and a computer power cord, none of which have switches, I feel that a switch may get bumped and power down the unit unsafely and risk damage to the electronics. In short this is the best power supply for the RigPi Server Station. Mine is the newest model with the 2 micro HDMI ports adjacent to the USB C for reference, perhaps older models the 90 degree connection would have worked.

Its cool you need to buy this

Ive purchased multiple units over the years for my RPI4s. They all work well, including driving a small SSD attached to the RPI4. Never had the low voltage symbol come up, since these supplies are rated 1/2A greater capacity than the foundations. (3.5A vs 3A). Recommended for your RPI4.

The official Rpi power supply was out of stock. Took a chance on this one after good experiences with other Canakit products. Works perfectly.

I like 3.5A amperage - more than the standard 5V 3A. It leaves an extra 0.5A to power USB devices plugged in to Raspberry Pi 4B 4Gb board.

Works as advertised, arrived promptly....what better praise could there be!

Disappointed that the wall wart does not sit flat against the outlet. There’s a raised rectangle that the prongs come out of, such that if you press against the bottom of the wall wart the prongs start to come out of the outlet. Very annoying and also probably a fire hazard

Works as expected.
