FAQ
Q1: I tested it with the official 27W power supply, but the module outputs max 4.5A and shuts down at 4.6A (actual power 22.5W), unable to reach the rated 5V5A. Why?
A: This product requires a minimum input of 30 W for full-load operation. Please retest it with a qualified high-quality power supply; we recommend the Geekworm PSU60.
