Appears to work -- Using with Raspberry Pi
Note: if laying the board on a desk, the circuit board should be at the top (where you can see the LED flash from time to time). There's a brief manual at the manufacturers (Nova) site.The recent smoke events in the NE US got me researching air quality sensors. My research lead me to learning about sensor components and then on to researching if I could use a sensor with a Raspberry Pi. I own a Raspberry Pi 3 which has been "resting" in a drawer for a few years... More research and I learned how I could use the Pi with this sensor. So, I ordered the sensor.I followed the directions I found and was able to get the system to work. I wasn't sure it was accurate, so last evening, as the AQI was rising, I put it all on my front porch and the initial reading just so happened to match the EPA sensor a few miles away. Good sign. The readings bounced around a bit, as I would expect and I brought it back inside.My purpose is to measure my inside air especially during outside smoke "events" to know what is happening and to measure if countermeasures (air cleaners, their location, etc) are working.As a test, I did run my vacuum cleaner near the sensor and it detected an increase in PM10. The increase in PM2.5 could have been a "rounding error."Finally, a comment about accuracy in more humid environments. As humidity increases, the amount of dust that can be suspended in air increases. Turn on the A/C, the dust in the air decreases because there's less water molecules in the air to support that dust. That this device is detecting less dust in the air after the A/C is turned on is a sign that this device is working.

Little expensive, works great
I recently purchased the Raspberry Pi 3 B+ Power Supply and I have to say that it has exceeded my expectations. While it was a bit more expensive than some other options on the market, the quality and reliability of this product make it well worth the investment.The power supply was easy to install and works flawlessly with my Raspberry Pi 3 B+. I haven't experienced any power issues or interruptions since I started using this product, which has given me peace of mind knowing that my Raspberry Pi is receiving the consistent power it needs to function properly.The build quality of the power supply is impressive, with sturdy construction and a sleek design that looks great alongside my other tech equipment. It's clear that a lot of care and attention to detail went into the manufacturing of this product.While it might be a bit more expensive than other options out there, the peace of mind and reliability it provides make it worth the extra cost. If you're looking for a high-quality power supply that you can rely on to keep your Raspberry Pi running smoothly, this is definitely a product worth considering.

the only raspberry pi power supply I use.
I use a lot of raspberry pi B for personal projects. this is the only power supply that doesn't under-deliver power. this one keeps up with whatever I do whether it is my radio hotspot or my streaming tv box. great little guys right here.

Does its job well, but awkward positioning.
As much as I'm not a fan of micro usb, that's what I'm stuck with on the pi 3 so this does what I need to without worrying about it being on all the time. The wall wart/AC side is a little awkward to position in my setup though partly because the size and partly because it's stuck going out from one side or the other rather than straight out but that's just preference for my setup of course some people will prefer it this way.

Works as expected
This power supply is good for the Pi Zero through the Pi 3B computers. Be aware that it does not provide enough power to run the Pi 4 or 5 as it only puts out 2.5 amps. The bigger Pi models take 3 or more amps to run properly.

Works with the Pi 3 B+
You want to make sure you have the correct power supply for your Raspberry Pi or you could brick it. This works on the Pi 3 B+ for sure, and CanaKit is an official Raspberry vendor.

Perfect replacement for bad power supply
I had a Pi with a power supply that started to report under voltage so thought I would try this unit. Its an easy drop in replacement for the original and works perfectly. Now no more under voltage reports. Highly recommended.
