Use this...it measures 5.00v with ZERO fluctuation. I have used many, many power sources iFi, various from eBay and Teradak etc. This $10.95 wallwart provides Linear Regulated power thats as good as anything.

However keep in mind that fancy power supplies mean nothing if your RPI still sees switching regulated power. FYI, if you use the miniUSB jack for power you will be using the RPI's internal switching regulator. Therefore no need to get a fancy power supply unless you plan on powering your RPI directly from GPIO.
