First off let me say that I am in the process of ordering a BeagleBone Black and that this will be my very first SBC. :)
I was looking at USB hubs and came across the HooToo HT-UH003 7-Port Hub ( http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=0J2-0020-00004). This USB hub contains one port dedicated to charging devices (no data) with the following power specs: - Charging Port = 5V/2A - Power supply = 5V/4A - center positive I plan on cutting off the end of a USB cable & soldering a power plug onto it in order to power the BBB's DC jack via the USB charging port. I see no reason why this won't work but I wanted an experts opinion before placing my order. And as an added bonus I should be able to use the USB hub's power adapter directly on the BBB for times when I don't require extra USB ports. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
