Using to power a raspberry pi, programmed to run as a Victron Cerbo unit. Initially, I was using a usb-c wall wort for power, but I wanted to run off the battery so if inverter shut off, I will still have remote access to system. It's been powering the RP for several months with problem.

Using this as part of a power solution for a Raspberry Pi 5 in the car. No issues so far.

One of the few 12V to 5V 5A USB-C adapters that work with the Raspberry Pi 5! No low power warnings!The Raspberry Pi 5 USB type C power connector uses USB type C Power Delivery communication to negotiate the higher 5 amperes at 5.1 volts, which is per PD standard 3.0, but higher than the normal 3 amperes specified in the type C standard. Without negotiating 5 ampere Power Delivery, the Raspberry Pi 5 USB ports are limited to 0.6A, instead of a total of 1.6A. from all four ports.The Raspberry Pi 5 mains wall wart supports this, but I have been searching for a direct 12 volt adapter, to avoid the clutter of an inverter-wall wart combo. I have tried a lot of other brand 12 volt to type C PD adapters and they failed the higher current negotiation.This adapter module WORKS if you add this line to the end of /boot/firmware/config.txt: usb_max_current_enable=1This makes the Pi5 assume that the PSU is capable of delivering the full 5 Amps if/when needed, and ignore the PD negotiation.

combined with a solar 12v source these are working great. also using with a 12v led driver to power a raspberry pi.

This adapter appears to be well made and carefully labeled, but the specifications say "25 watts" and "5 amps max" and I'm not getting anywhere that if I can believe the little USB tester I have (see photo). Granted, the output current is more than double what I got from a standard USB adapter (0.8 amps at 5 volts), but it's not nearly as much as claimed.To be fair, USB C PD is complicated and both devices must talk to each other and agree on voltage and current levels. My other charger will switch to 9 volts which results in considerably faster charging- this one does not. And not all cables will support this. I tried 3 different ones including a known high power cable.Test conditions: the load was a OnePlus 9g phone at 70% charge level and room temperature. The charger itself was cold (50 degrees F) because it had been installed on my motorcycle which was sitting outside.
