Where/How would I plug this in? Could I plug it into a USB port or a normal two/three prong Wall plug? Im going planning on using it for desk/monitor.

You need to remove one of those cover brackets in the back of your case, yeah those where the video card comes out from and then, plug a 4 pin molex to the device's board, then place the LED lights wherever you see fit and connect the one end of the LED cable to the device's board. I'll see if i can post some pictures of my build.

It is connected by a 4 pin molex connector. You would be unable to connect to usb or a wall plug.

The power connectors on this are specifically intended to be used inside a computer case. It does not have a USB or two/three prong wall plug. The lights take a 4-pin molex connector (like a case-fan). If you got an external adapter to that then this might work with another power source (like USB or a wall plug).

The LED strip only has a molex connector; this requires a power supply inside a computer to power it. You would rewire the strips to be powered by another 5V source, but I would go with a different DIY solution.

The adapter (as previously stated) uses a molex connector. ON A SIDE NOTE: The length of the cable that connects the molex adapter to the switch that goes in a PCI slot on your case is only 8 INCHES LONG. It can lead to a bit of a cable management nightmare.

I can't find any specs on power requirement, but there's nothing in the mouse that draws any significant amount of power. That said, it should work in any usb port, so the port on the monitor should be just fine. Depending on your operating system, the monitor usb port should usually be connected to a usb 2.0 port on the back of the computer so it will be active when the computer is first booting. If the port is connected to a usb port that isn't active early in the boot process, you won't be able to use it to make selections in the bios configuration. Otherwise, it's a great mouse and provides wonderful relief for those with wrist problems aggravated by a conventional mouse.

It plugs into an outlet that accepts a 3 prong plug. It would sit on a desk just fine.

Not long enough to reach across your desk down to the usb port at the back of the pc. Also lights out in no time. I suggest you're better off adding extra usbs on the motherboard. At least that's what I've done.

Through USB. I use a laptop. You would need an additional converter to plug it into the wall.

I am currently using 2 of these along with my Lenovo laptop (total 3 screens) in my home office. The USB ports on the laptop did not have enough power to run both of them at the same time, so I used a powered USB hub that I already had. Works great as a 3 monitor setup.

Hi, thanks for contacting us. If your monitor is an ultrasharp you can plug into the monitors power. If you do not have an ultrasharp you will need a power adapter. If there is anything else I can do for you or if you have any other questions please let me know.Sincerely,Chris Nickels Red Planet Trading

This cable is not for USB port usage. It is a video cable HDMI to display port to be used from your HDMI on your computer to your computer monitor (assuming that your monitor uses this type of port, not all use this type of port).

There is a miniUSB to dual USB cord that comes with it, which uses the power from the PC. It's a little longer than I'd like it to be, so I suppose you can substitute a shorter one. Not sure what the dual USB end would be for...

You can plug it into your computer or into the wall with a USB wall adapter. This doesn't come with the USB wall adapter.

No, it won't harm your computer or monitor. It would be better to buy one surge protector that has enough outlets, or to plug both smaller surge protectors directly into the wall though.

There is a usb cord connection. but I have no idea what to use it for! I use the monitor connection to display documents for students to view as I work out problems. There is also the power cord and some video cords.

Can't help you since it is usually plugged in below the desk. Yours, nonetheless, is a good question and I would be interested in any response that you may receive.

Insert the remaining end of the USB Power wire into an AC adapter connected to the wall socket or a charging computer USB port. i use my laptop to charge this device.

All i do is plug it into a wall outlet, what alternative way are you looking for?

I suspect that you could plug one of the USB cable into an external power source. The question is, "which one"! I would suggest trying the plug on the end to your computer first, then the 2nd plug, (the one with the short lead), to the power source. However, if this does not work, then swap the 2..... One of the plugs is for power only, (no data line in that one)..... However, when all else fails, add a cheap, 2 or 4 port "active" hub to your computer, then plug a couple of your other USB devices to the HUB.... This can cost less than $20.00 This wireless adapter works so well, adding a small hub still makes this adapter the ONLY way to go wireless!

It needs a USB (3.0 I think) to work. You can then run your monitor off that. However, the thing is awful and made weird graphical glitches on my work computer and a lot of other people had similar. I'd suggest not getting this.
