Raspberry Pi 15W USB-C Power Supply (Black, EU)
Couldn't load pickup availability
Official, stable 5.1 V power for Raspberry Pi 4 / 400.
This official Raspberry Pi 15W USB-C power supply is designed to deliver the current headroom a Pi needs under real load, with a 5.1 V / 3.0 A output and a 1.5 m captive USB-C cable. It’s a solid choice for Raspberry Pi builds used as hotspots, gateways, SDR helpers, and other always-on shack utilities.
Important: This is NOT USB-C Power Delivery (PD) and NOT Quick Charge. Output is fixed at 5.1 V.
Included
- Official Raspberry Pi 15W USB-C power supply (Black, EU plug)
- Fixed (captive) USB-C cable — 1.5 m
What It Is (and Isn’t)
This supply is built to reliably power Raspberry Pi 4 and Raspberry Pi 400 with a stable 5.1V / 3A rail and standard safety protections (short-circuit, over-current, over-temperature).
It does not negotiate USB-C PD voltages (9V/12V/15V). If your project needs PD or you’re powering a Raspberry Pi 5 with high-power peripherals, use the 27W USB-C PD model instead.
* For RF installations: keep the USB-C cable away from feedlines and high-field areas. If needed, add ferrites on the DC cable near the load to reduce cable-borne RF pickup.Features

Typical Uses
- Raspberry Pi 4 / Raspberry Pi 400 projects
- Pi-based hotspots, gateways, and station helpers
- Small always-on shack servers (logging, monitoring, APRS, dashboards)
- Stable 5V power for embedded projects that truly need 3A headroom
* If you need USB-C PD profiles (9V/12V/15V) or you’re powering a Raspberry Pi 5 with power-hungry USB peripherals, use the Raspberry Pi 27W USB-C PD power supply instead.
Mini-FAQ
- Is this USB-C Power Delivery (PD)? — No. Output is fixed at 5.1 V (no PD/QC negotiation).
- What Raspberry Pi models is it intended for? — Primarily Raspberry Pi 4 and Raspberry Pi 400.
- Can I run it 24/7? — Yes. It’s designed for continuous operation with low standby consumption.
- Will it reduce RF noise? — It’s a quality PSU, but RF results still depend on cable routing and the overall station environment. Add ferrites if needed.
- Do I need a separate USB cable? — No. It has a captive (fixed) USB-C cable.
