        idk what a rating would be for it, but the hub is a 2.0 travel usb hub that I modified to be plugged in (again, 5 volts)

          It should say how many amp it can supply on the power supply "aka current"

            @gamerguy010101 it will say something like 5v 2a or like 5v 500ma. That is the amperage that we need to know for the power cord powering the pi

                @gamerguy010101 you have already stated this. You need to quote the CURRENT rating.

                  Take a photo of the sticker that shows the specifications on the power supply and post it here.

                      @gamerguy010101 Write down everything exactly what's written on the power supply, maybe we can decipher it for you. What apple product was it used on?

                        I don't think retropie is for you.

                          @gamerguy010101 can you read what the amperage is? It will be something like 500ma or 1a or something like that. It is listed on the output right after it says 5v. Or post a link to one on another sight so we can see it for ourselves.

                            @gamerguy010101 click this Look closely at the 9V DC output - it says 300mA next to it. That's 300 milliamps or 0.3A. You need something like 1.5A for your zero and anything else to be comfortable.

                              @gamerguy010101 Hope it does not say 9V...otherwise your Pi Zero is blown.
