Hi,

I live in Japan, and have a RAPIRO set up with a Raspberry Pi (1st) Model B+ and have got it to work.
I upgraded the RasPi to the latest RasPi 3 but RAPIRO doesn't work properly, probably because of lack of power current.
Having read some posts (e.g. http://forum.rapiro.com/thread/34/ ) , I haven't yet found any information on which AC power supply to use for RasPi 3 in a RAPIRO.

I have two questions:

1)
Is there a sufficient power supply for Raspberry Pi 3 which works and supplies more than 1.5A (in case we have USB peripherals or something) by itself?

I'm concerned about the restriction of power transmission due to the spec of USB cable, which they say limits the current up to 1.5A for a micro-B USB cable.
Though this may be off-topic in this forum and should perhaps be asked elsewhere, I think it is best to ask you RAPIRO owners who have done efforts to have your RAPIRO's brain brushed up.

2)
Has anyone run RasPi3-equipped RAPIRO with only the AC adapter for the robot? If so, what kind of AC adapter do you use? This is a Just-for-our-information question.

Any other kind of information is welcome such as the specification of power transmission inside RAPIRO and its Arduino-compatible board. Thank you.

Edit:
I know RAPIRO has a low-drop regulator inside to transmit power to RasPi. But according to the post below (in Ishiwatari-san's response), the maximum allowable current of the regulator is 1.5A, which may not be sufficient for a heavily-equipped RasPi 3 to work on.
