        So I tested it, and it also freezes with power from a separate outlet… I’m now running the Pi without the magicmirror program running to see if that is the problem.

            They said they’re using a 5V/2.5A adapter. Makes me wonder if the rpi is getting hot. I spent weeks trying to figure out why the monitor connected to the rpi was flashing off and on every so often. Swapped it for a different rpi, same thing, so I figured it’s the monitor. Connected it to a different machine and it worked just fine. Connected the rpi to a different monitor and sure enough, that too started flashing on and off. Even after forcing a higher power signal on the rpi, didn’t fix it. Then I pulled the thing out of the acrylic case it came in and it stopped. The main processor was getting too hot. I’m probably going to redesign the case, 3D print a new one and incorporate a small fan. Should be fun.

            A Life? Cool! Where can I download one of those from?

              @Wilco89 Raspberry Pi 3, 5V 2.5A Should be more than sufficient. It doesn’t show the square with colors, what normally would show when power is to low.
