Some powered USB hubs will provide more power than a PC. So using a USB hub for a single device can mean that it gets more power than a PC can provide. Also often PCs provide more power on USB ports than they should. One time for a test I had an old laptop I was about to send to e-waste and I shorted out a USB port, that should have just drawn 500mA but instead instantly shut the machine down. -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/ _______________________________________________ luv-main mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
