Review on πŸ’‘ High-performance CanaKit 3.5A Raspberry Pi 4 Power Supply (USB-C): Optimal Power Solution for Seamless Performance by David Will

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent power supply for Raspberry Pi 4

I prefer this power supply to the official Raspberry Pi power supply for Pi 4. I had problems with the official power supply when turning on the AC power with the Raspberry Pi plugged in. When I do that, the Pi 4 doesn't boot properly. I need to disconnect the official power supply from the Pi, let the power supply turn on, and then connect the Raspberry Pi 4 to the power supply. I don't like constantly plugging and unplugging the USB-C connector on the Pi as it can be prone to damage. I can leave the CanaKit power supply plugged into the Pi, plug in the power supply and everything boots up fine. The extra capacity of the Canakit makes a big difference. Highly recommended!
