But the psu itself - a        > kosher raspberry pi one - claims it will deliver 5A/25W.              That doesn't sound right.              Raspberry Pi sell three different USB-C PSUs:              - A 15W PSU for use with the Pi 4/400 only.       - A 27W PSU for use with the Pi5/500 (and 4/400)       - A 45W PSU which is like the 27W but more powerful and can power some        laptops, etc.              The 27W and 45W PSUs support the USB Power Delivery spec and will        provide a range of powers/voltages after negotiation with the device.        The 15W PSU provides only 5V/3A, and is stated to be inadequate for the        Pi5 and later.              There is no official "kosher" 25W PSU from Raspberry Pi.              --        Cheers,        Daniel.              --- PyGate Linux v1.0        * Origin: Dragon's Lair, PyGate NNTP<>Fido Gate (3:633/10)       SEEN-BY: 105/81 106/201 128/187 129/14 305 153/7715 154/110 218/700       SEEN-BY: 226/30 227/114 229/110 111 200 206 275 300 317 400 426 428       SEEN-BY: 229/470 616 664 700 705 266/512 291/111 292/854 320/219 322/757       SEEN-BY: 342/200 396/45 460/58 633/10 280 414 418 420 422 509 2744       SEEN-BY: 712/848 770/1 902/26 2320/105 5020/400 5075/35       PATH: 633/10 280 229/426           |
