I have been getting the dreaded blinking red LED that indicates my supply is dropping out. Using another supply seems to confirm this as it functions well. However, the supply that works is rated at 5.2v and 0.2 A whereas the supply that doesn't work is 5.25v, 1 A and is the one that shipped in my Adafruit Raspberry Pi starter kit.
I plan to measure the voltage/resistance on the board tonight or tomorrow (just learned about that today) to confirm further.
Regardless, does Adafruit have any policies on replacing those supplies?
Outside of that behavior I love the kit!
Thanks,
J
