While I have seen documentation regarding the recommended voltage of power adapters (e.g. 12 - 20V), I have not seen a recommendation for the respective amperage. Could you please provide, as I tried a 12V 5A power adapter which caused the board to overheat.

HiFiBerry team Hi,
the board will not overheat if you use it with a powerful power supply. 12V/5A is perfectly fine. What exactly happened? How did you diagnose that it overheated?
Best regards,

Jake Ferry Daniel - The beocreate LED's were not on and the corresponding raspberry pi 3 had a RED LED, which did not post. However, the raspberry pi 3 would get extremely hot to the touch if left on.

HiFiBerry team Hi Jake,
this might be a defective Raspberry Pi. Did you check this standalone without the Beocreate?
Best regards,
Daniel
