General discussion • Re: Powering Raspberry Pi 5 without official Power Adapter

Hi All,

My Raspberry Pi 5 was automatically turning off due to overheating, but I installed an active cooler, and the problem has been resolved.

May I know the temperature limit at which the Raspberry Pi automatically turns off or reboots?

Thanks in advance

The PI5 won't turn off due to overheating unless it hits 110DegC, which is extremely unlikely unless it is faulty and all throttling has somehow failed. Even in a 70C oven, I was unable to make devices exceed 105C when under stress.

Note that it turns itself off at that temperature - it does not crash, and you will get a console warning that it is turning off. Did you get that?
