I’ve had no difficulty width 3b+es and phone power
supplies with a 2a nameplate rating. It is highly
likely that freebie grade micro usb cables (and
ohms law and 28-30 awg wire) are to blame.
Consider trying Anker or other higher quality
cables that are rated for fast charging of phones.

<div>Speaking of which if you have a herd of tiny
ARM devices that want 2 amps, I’ve found that
the 6 port 60w Anker power supplies are most
excellent for the workbench or rack. They also
make nice presents/stocking stuffers. <span

<div><br>
</div>
<div>And yes, they now have versions that do usb-c
if your newest phone needs that. Anker makes
good quality products at the right price. Two
thumbs up.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Also, yes, dhcp leases are sticky by MAC
address. They tend to not be durable across
router reboots though unless you have an
environment where you can make the lease
permanent. If you have a Linux box you can use
nmap to scan your subnet and find your stuff
(and if you run it as root it will tell you
about the OUI in the MAC address which can be
handy,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Lastly, since you have a herd of these
beasties, on Raspbian at least you can set them
up to run sshd out of the box, which eliminates
the need to set up a console for one that is
freshly installed. Wouldn’t surprise me if
other distros follow this. <a
