GrayFox: I have been contending with low voltage indications on the RASPI 3B+ for a long time. Tried many solutions, various 110 to 5 volt supplies, buck power supply 12 to 5 V 5A and variable supply. Feeding through the connector and directly to the GPIO 5V pin. Nothing worked until I tried this supply. It works great. No lightning bolt, or low voltage warning. I was sceptical with all that had been tired before but this works and let's me know the issue is voltage related and not a bad pi. So now the goal is to power it from a 12 volt battery to 5 V and complete my weather station.

S13_Mills: A good power supply for the Raspberry Pi 3. I use mine with a Raspberry Pi to play videos, and I've never had any issues with freezing / crashing under high load, suggesting the supply is stable.

On / Off button is handy, means you don't have to unplug anything to reset if needed.

KQ: When using my Raspberry Pi 3b+ I kept getting "lightning bolt" icon on the upright corner of the screen, meaning not enough power. I tried different power supplies, without success -- even another one that claimed to be 3A. This power supply seems to work well and deliver the required Amps. No more lightning bolts and my Raspberry Pi is running smoother now. The little power-button is so helpful, so I don't have to bother plugging and unplugging the power. Just use the button.

Joe: I purchased a couple of these NORTHPADA power supplies with built-in switches, to power a bluetooth transmitter and receiver pair I use for my outdoor audio system. The bluetooth devices have their own power buttons, but they're "push and hold"-types that don't have a positive feel, and there are no indicator lights on them, to confirm "on/off" status. These power supplies terminate in micro USB connectors- exactly what my devices use, provide 5-volt, 3-amp outputs- so my devices don't starve for power, and the built-in "on/off" button not only positively "snaps", but also features a red LED indicator to definitively indicate status. It's worth pointing out that the power buttons on these supplies are most convenient, when the device you're using them with will remain switched on, if the power to the device is cut. Otherwise, you'll find yourself turning on the power supply, and then turning on the device, too. Overall, these supplies are great. I've had mine plugged in for months now, and they're still going strong.

D. Mys: I could not find a suitable Pwr Sup for my Pi 3 and then I bought this one. No more lightening bolt flashing at me. It works great, but minus 1 start for the switch. The switch is fine and has a nice thick membrane over it that it not going to wear out, but …. it is a little to thick and the switch gets stuck turning it on and off. A little wiggle and it pops back to position, but not something you want to be futzing with when it comes to Pi pwr. Else it is a great product I I won’t use the switch much anyhow so I’ll keep it with only 4 stars.
