MK3 PSU + RasPi 3B+

Is there enough power to run the MK3 with a Raspi 3B+ (for e.g. running Klipper) with the stock provided Prusa PSU (old version and new)? Thx.

The Raspberry Pi takes 2.5 amps. I had to buy a special power supply by CANA for it.

So that's only 12.5W then and the stock Prusa PSU's can provide up to 250W. Should be alright, no?

Yes, if my math is correct, but how much is used by the Prusa?

Yeah, this is what I don't know but would like to know among other things. You said that you "had to buy a special power supply by CANA for it" but this was because it did not work in your experience running off the 5V from the Einsy or something else? Thx.
