Is there a limit to how much power you can put into a Raspberry Pi?
However, if you apply power to your Pi via one of the standard methods (e.g. the micro USB port), then apply power to USB ports and remove the original supply, it will stay on and functional. It should be noted that USB ports have a current limit of 500mA, so we would not recommend you attempt to supply more than this via the USB!

Why does my Raspberry Pi have low voltage?
However, any excessive use of the USB ports or even heavy CPU/GPU loading can cause the voltage to drop, and instability during use. The latest versions of the Raspberry Pi B+/A+/2 have a “low voltage indicator icon” to notify the user if there is a problem with the power.
What kind of charger does Raspberry Pi use?
Using the USB interface, the Pi can be powered through a phone charger. This includes portable chargers, which might be used if the Pi needs to be placed where outlets are not available or if they must be movable. The USB port isn’t the only way to power the Pi though.
