      none of the above. I think? I might have changed some settings that were suggested in the github article about reducing input lag, but AFAIK I only did that in the NES core

      @trailjacker said in Lightning Bolt / General Electronic Question:

      Many users worry that that they may "supply too much power" by using a higher rated supply.

      Yes, because they do not understand that in electronics, a device will draw the current that it demands. For example, I buy a green LED. It requires 25mA to illuminate. I decide to power it with a 3A power supply. The power supply laughs at it and delivers the 25mA with 2.975A spare capacity to power other things like a Pi.

      @petrockblog thank you for that! Worked like a charm. The PowerBlock is truly a necessity for me, and once I'm done with my pet project, I'll be sure to share.
