Re: Power Issue Hell.

If there was 0.7V over the polyfuse would the Pi boot? I'm no electronics expert but it seems signs are pointing towards a 'bad' cable. Since I haven't tried to replace it yet but have replaced everything else several times over it might be the simplest for me to order a new one. I don't see how I'l...

I can't get the pi to have more than 4.2 volts with a usb item plugged in. I'm ready to throw this thing out the window to be honest, so frustrated am I. Every time...
