[Cialug] Raspberry Pi HDMI issue

[Jeffrey Ollie]

CanaKit has a really nice 2.5A power supply that works great with the Pi,
and the price is right too. As far as I know that's the most current @ 5V
that you can buy that plugs into a MicroUSB, especially if you want to
avoid overloading your Pi. If you need more current than that I think that
you'd want to power the Pi and any peripherals separately.
