          @jackiehanna power supply for sure. Phone chargers do not provide a stable enough current.

                    @jackiehanna That doesn't mean you can't buy one. Lots of vendor sell it separately or have a special bundle including it.

                                I don't understand what you're trying to say.

                                  @jackiehanna No it just needs to be good quality and have an output of 5 Volt and 2.5 Ampere.
