MK802IV PSU Question

[arandompiece]

I've read a lot about getting a better PSU for the MK802IV to eliminate some of the issues I'm having (i.e., device turning off or flickering). I don't know a lot about choosing power supplies. Would someone please give me a couple of links (like maybe on amazon) or tell me exactly what to search for on amazon to find a more power supply that will work? I'm worried that I'll do damage if I try to pick it out myself. If this has already been added to another thread I apologize. Thanks!!!!

I've bough this: Link

It isn't arrived yet, so i can't say if it works good, but it should be fine.

Anyway every PSU that can supply 3A should be good...But be careful, it should supply 3A on a SINGLE USB PLUG, some PSUs supply 3A in a span over 2 usb ports or more, be sure of that

Re: MK802IV PSU Question

Not all PSUs are equal at any level of voltage or current. Trust research, not hype, and spend a few extra bucks on it. If you can't find good news about the product outside of Amazon, don't buy it.
2A of stable continuous current is more beneficial than a 3A unit that can't keep solid power and amps when put to the test. Chances are if your stick needs more than 2A, you've too many usb devices running off it. Anything but low current drawing devices or necessities like a wireless input device dongle should be powered through a separate USB hub. I have my stick connected to the TV through a 20' crap HDMI cable powered by by a quality 2A supply and havent had blackouts or dropped audio since dumping all the cheap PSUs I had previously.
