The official mains power supply provides 2 5a at 5 1v.
													
																	Raspberry pi 3 power supply 12v. 
									
	
		
	
																	The recommended amount is between 700ma for a raspberry pi model a and up to 2 5a for a raspberry pi 3 model b see power supply requirements in the magpi issue 56 page 39. 
																	Unfortunately the 12v multi supply i have has 3 cigar lighter type sockets and 4 usb sockets but the usb sockets are only 5v 2 1a.

																	5 coupon applied at checkout save 5 with coupon. 
																	The gpio pins can draw 50ma safely distributed across all the pins. 
																	Earlier models demanded a lower draw of 5v at 1a but in practice greater amperage is usually preferable. 
															
													
									
	
		
	
																	Powering a raspberry pi from a 12v power supply. 
																	Usage depends on what you re doing with the pi. 
																	Here are 10 ways to power a raspberry pi. 
																	For low power projects you can reduce the amperage quite a bit before it affects performance or stability.
