Re: Power supply with 5.35V / 2A safe?

Correct Pete,

But I do not have a nominal source. Maybe a new AAA battery?

Anyway the pi works but I will get myself the correct PSU soon.

Thanks all.

Thanks all!

I just cut a spare USB cable and connected it to the 5.35/2A adapter and found a reading of max 5.05V on my DVM. Suppose the text on the adapter is not really to be trusted?

Power supply with 5.35V / 2A safe?

Hi there,

Merry Xmas.

I have a question about suppling power to my new R Pi2 Model B. Somehow my supplier forgot to include a power adapter and I still want to play..

Can I use one with 5.35V / 2A without burning up the board?

Thanks very much.

Kind regards,
Marcel
