In the pictures it shows that the Himbox is being powered via the USB cable @ 2A. Does the unit need 2A or can it work with 1A?

The device is low power so I always use the 1A for the HimBox while 2A for phone charging

I purchased the 7 port unit which has a power supply. I am more cofident in say the 7 port unit will work. I doubt the non power unit will work. I hope that helps you.

It isnt anything special. Just make sure you get a mini usb to 2 regular usb cable. (Yes, that is one end is a MINI USB (not micro) and then the other end will have 2 regular sized USBs.) It is because one pulls power and the other actually send/receives the data IIRC

I'm not the seller, sorry. I'd suggest looking up some installation guides because it can be a little tricky I had to buy a powered USB hub when I got mine.

the one I got would not work for that. Only 2 of the 7 usb ports worked and if I tried to use both at once it would not power the devices.

This enclosure is powered from the FW800 connection. I don't presently have a USB3 interface on any of my computers but suspect it will work there, too. Additionally, I have a 5 volt, 2 Amp supply which came with a much older 2.5" external case that will fire up this drive. The outside ground terminal of the round 5V plug is roughly 1/8 inch in diameter, and that should let you find a suitable supply if you really need one. I have several FW400 and FW800 external drives in cases and rarely need this power supply. USB2 did not have enough power for a hard drive, and that may be why I have this supply. Does this help?

Hi Alex, I have used a 1A, 2A charger & my laptop USB port. They all worked perfectly, charging at different speeds, of course.

It should act just as any other powered USB hub. Just make sure you have proper power supplied.

The USB is 1A. The continuous built in AUDIO amp is 22W x4 @ 4ohm. Pre outs are 2v max. Full specs and manual at http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Car/Digital+Media+Receivers/MVH-X560BT

Mine is Project series and manual clearly says it is BOTH USB 1.1 and 2. However, no A/C power came with it (one reviewer said his did). Mine also came with USB cable (one reviewer said his didn't). Mine does have a volume on the Monitor Output, so (according to one reviewer) that makes it the v2 (new) version. Order mine late May, 2014.

There is a 2A fuse in the plug, so the total load across all three sockets and the USB plug is 2A. I was disappointed to find this out since it is very limiting given that a lot of newer devices require 1 or maybe 2A. I tried to see how much the unit could take and put a 10A fuse in, plugged a 5A device on it. The unit started smoking immediately. This is very unfortunate as it is a great unit otherwise, but I think it should be build for at least 8-10A total current.

My understanding is that 2A is the maximum. If you use one usb port, that port will get the 2A. If you use both the current will be distributed. 4A seems too much to take from your car battery anyway.

The hub overall is limited to 2A (2000mA). 3 of the ports are standard USB 2.0 500mA and are only powered when the host computer is on. One of the ports is marked as a "fast charging port" with 2A and available when a USB host is disconnected, though the specs state that this delivers only 500mA when a USB host is connected. I haven't measured this with a multimeter but based on what I've seen using the fast charging port to power a RaspberryPi (which is also the USB host) I believe the charging port is not limited below 2A when a host system is connected, but instead, all four ports are limited to the 2A maximum with the other 3 ports limited to 500mA each.

it gives u usb 2 ports. i wouldn't try to run hard disks from these ports, the only power is usb power

I have charged a device that requires 2.1A, and several that required 1A. They all charged fine. Are you charging with USB 2, USB 3, or using an AC adapter?
1262266
Not with the supplied AC to USB adapter, you would need to supply a different one.

That's a good question, but I don't know if it supports 2A charging. I use it for charging a MP3 player in my car. I don't have a 2A device to test with. Sorry.
