Hi bro, I am badly in need of some knowledge for my rpi5 board ups. I dont want to cut my official power supply to add switch circuit for my pi. Nor i want to add AC inverter to my pi as its massive setup with high current draw. I need approx few seconds of ups power to shutdown my Home assistant safely on rpi5 on power failures. Please let me know of any cheap methods so that its safe on power failures. Did lot research on ups and inverters. Also i dont wanna risk attaching my cheap buck converter to gpio (still there is issue how do i cut usb c power line at same time) during power fails.
So, the issue that I have with using power supplies isn't so much the voltage but the amps. When I want to power multiple sbc's with one psu. I can find a psu that gives the 3v, 5v and 12v is needed, but the amps are a mystery. How do I ensure that I get the 3A needed out of the psu?
What is the make/model of that stat display monitor on your PC build? I've seen things like the Asus ProArt Display PA147CDVI, but it's expensive for what I'd use it for and there's the Lukos as well (kickstarter). I can't seem to find anything else affordable like that and having a mini ultrawide is perfect for my project! Thank you.
I have a Raspberry Pi 4B 8GB attatged to a 10 inch touchscreen via 180 degree hdmi & usb adapters. So the touchscreen is powered by the raspberry pi via theese adapters. The screen has an extra power-connector. I don't know if i can use this connector because the screen is directly powerd by the 180 degree micro-usb adapter. When i don't use this adapter and power the screen via the extra power-connector then i don't get any display on the screen. So i must ust this adapter. I also have a m.2 sata3 drive in a usb case attadged to one of the usb3 ports as a bootdisk. I did try a mvme drive but that got very hot witch i don't like. This sata3 drive stays nice cool. I want to run Klipper on the pi with the touchscreen for my 3D printer. The problem is that the screen is flickering and the speaker of the touchscreen makes a ratteling sound. It sounds like if a damaged harddisk trying to seek data witch he cannot find. I think that the powersupply (original pi, 5v 3A) is not enough to power the screen and m.2 drive. How much ams should i use for the pi, screen and m.2 and maybe a keyboard/mouse? What is the max amps you can use safely on the Raspberry Pi 4B? Can you give me some links to good powersupplies with more then 3 amps for the Raspberry Pi 4B? Thank you
You could try to use the new official Raspberry Pi power supply that was released alongside the Pi 5. That one now goes up to 5A. But i've personally never used a screen and external drive both powered by the Raspberry Pi, so I can not guarantee that this will work.
I fried something yesterday because I had 15 V and around 4 A in a battery and it's a board for solar power. I guess I went over and it sparkled and smoked. Now I got 2 USB plugs more for something. Not too worried as it was below what I expected. Sort of working on a battery backup for a RPi 3B and decided on a charger later as well. A media case found on eBay is having great power, but I got 2 RPi 3B models already and it's all new to me. Got interested in the GPIO/electronics recently and I like programming.
Having huge issues with the Pi 4B and low voltage. The only answer .. the factory supply. USB wall units will not work as you will get under voltage issues and your Pi may just reboot as mine did.

If i get a 60 Watt charging brick will that harm anything

Can we use high wattage fast smartphone charger?
No

When is the new MoBro App comming?
The graphics card could need some support, looks a bit unmotivated ;)

the gpu on that PC motherboard is sagging so much , you need to support heavy weight hhhhhh
