Folks..
Planning to buy a power adapter for my new Pi, the one i have is under powered for some reason.
Is there anything out there that people can recommend that works well ?
Thanks.

I use an iPad charger on mine. They output 2.1A. If I remember correctly, Nook chargers are similar.

Ipad chargers are notorious for dropping voltage under load which is actually beneficial for a charger but terrible for a PI
If I have been of help, please add to my reputation as a way of saying thanks, it's free.

I use the apple wall socket to USB socket and then plug an old micro usb lead I had lying around into that.... it's worked constant with no issues at all for months!?!

I connect it to my TV's USB input via an old phone charger cord. Had this setup for 8 months.
