John, maybe this will help: The "official" power supply for the 4B is 5.1v., 4 A. A power supply for the 3B+ I have found by trial and error is a 5.25 V., 3 A. This will keep you from getting "low power, check power supply" messages and the little lightning bolt on the upper right corner of the screen.
What is this thing with available "official" power supplies being capable of no more than the Pi requires? Why not make one capable of say 6 amps (or even more) and a short/heavier cord to reduce voltage drop? From the comments here I bet something like that would be popular.
