The Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ requires a 5.1V 2.5A power source. This is the official power supply by the Raspberry Pi Foundation and is suitable for use with all Raspberry Pi Models (excluding Pi 4 without an [USB-C adaptor](https://core-electronics.com.au/usb-micro-b-to-usb-c-adapter-white.html)).

We've also tested this with the new Raspberry Pi 4 (with a [USB-C adaptor](https://core-electronics.com.au/usb-micro-b-to-usb-c-adapter-white.html)) and it works just fine. Plenty of elbow room to power other connected things.
