Hi, I have just purchased a ‘RaspiRobot Board v3 (Seeed Studio)’ I installed this on a Rasberry Pi 3B+, are these compatible together? When installed it only supplies 4.5V not 5V to the Rasberry Pi 3B+. As a result, the under voltage lightning bolt alert icon is present for the 3B+. Thanks in advance. Cheers, Liam. ---

Hi Liam, This is compatible with the original Pi, Pi A+, Pi B+ and the Pi Model 2. It may not be compatible with the Pi Model 2 B, Pi Model 3 B, or Pi Model 3 B+. The new model Raspberry Pi’s have higher power requirements. The rest of the operation of the board should still work, but the power supply will likely be insufficient. I hope that helps! ---

Hi Stephen, thanks for your reply. I am confused, what is the difference between the Pi Model 2 and the Pi Model 2 B? Do you stock the Pi Model 2? Are they not the same Pi? can you please supply a link to the Pi Model 2. Cheers. ---

Liam, There are lots of different types of Raspberry Pi’s, the way they name them can be kinda confusing. There are many differences between the different boards. If you want to know how they are different you can find that here: [https://elinux.org/RPi\_HardwareHistory](https://elinux.org/RPi_HardwareHistory) All of our Raspberry Pi’s can be found here: > **[Boards - Raspberry Pi](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi/boards.html)** > > Core Electronics is a retailer for electronics in Australia including Arduino, Raspberry Pi, Sparkfun and Adafruit products. Fast shipping and support. The Model 2 B is here: > **[Raspberry Pi 2 - Model B](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi-2-model-b.html)** > > Everyone knows and loves Raspberry Pi, but what if it could be faster, say 6x faster. The Raspberry Pi 2 is here to provide you with the same Pi as before but now with double the ram and a much faster processor. The credit-card sized computer is... Raspberry Pi has grown and evolved over the past six years since its release in 2012, each new model builds on the last. Be careful that the 2B is not missing features that you expect. ---

It’s worth noting that the latest board (3B+) is the most power demanding of them all. We haven’t compared the 2B with the latest model, though we did some side-by-side tests between the 3B and 3B+ earlier in the year. Here’s a link (+38% power usage in some situations): > **[Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ Performance vs Raspberry Pi 3 Model B - Tutorial](https://core-electronics.com.au/tutorials/raspberry-pi-3-model-b-plus-performance-vs-3-model-b.html)** > > The Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ (I’ll be calling it the Pi 3+ for short) is an update to the existing Raspberry Pi 3 Model B and was released on Wednesday 14th March 2018.
