General discussion • Re: I am having trouble setting up my pi 5

A cell phone charger will not provide enough power to run the Pi. You need to get the official Raspberry Pi 5 Power Supply.

It depends on the charger. Which is not really a charger, it's a power supply. The charger is in the phone.

Okay. Then what is your advice for the OP to do?

Butch

I wasn't concerned about OP. I was concerned about the perpetual canard that a phone charger is not a power supply, since it is.

However, to eliminate potential* problems OP probably needs to get the official Raspberry Pi 5 Power Supply.

* You see what I did there?
