    The Pi5 documentation covers what the Pi5 expects - https://www.raspberrypi.com/document...raspberry-pi-5

    However I'm surprised there's no mention about powering it via the GPIO header, and my initial search hasn't revealed any mention on whether you could simply connect 5V to the GPIO?
    This is my solution for now

    We shall see if it works

    I bought a 100w USB cable (Really 25w for 5v)

    Going to cut it up route all the 4 lives to the live on the 5v PSU and all the 4 gnds to the gnd on 5v PSU and see what happens......

    Or get one of these which I think might do it, I assume the solder pads are power in
