5,2 volts to much for the raspberry pi?

Former Member over 11 years ago

Hi, I was Just wondering if it is okey to use a 5,2 volts power supply with 1 ampere instead of the regular 5 volts power supply?

Thanks for all answers :-)

Thanks for all answers guys! I Just bought the model B+ and it is my first one so I did not want to burn it or blow it up...

The B+ is much more efficient with the power supplies on board so you should be ok with the 5.0V adapter, remember that 5.25 is at the MAX Rating, not the recommended so if something causes it to increase its output like a short surge or something it can easily exceed this MAX rating
