Thurston9 Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Can they Helix USB port provide power to charge a small device (Bluetooth receiver or maybe phone)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbuhajla Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 It would have been a perfect way of powering the G10 wireless, but it doesn't. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisinon2 Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Well that's it... if they can't retrofit the USB port to charge my phone with the next firmware update, I'm going Fractal. ;) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I could just play with Helix all day and get paid for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillBee Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Well that's it... if they can't retrofit the USB port to charge my phone with the next firmware update, I'm going Fractal. ;) For the record, we can take that in a different few ways. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thurston9 Posted May 3, 2017 Author Share Posted May 3, 2017 Didn't think so, thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterHamm Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 Don't even ideascale this, folks. It's a USB B connector. there's no power coming out of it, no way, no how. I think we should march on USB Standards headquarters together. WHO'S WITH ME?!?!?!?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been at least 6 minutes since some bunch of disaffected crybabies have unleashed phony outrage at s convenient, soft target that they don't actually care about, except for the social media opportunity it affords them to appear "concerned and correct" to the rest of the Twitterati...;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zooey Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 I want that way less than I want to plug a thumb drive w presets and IRs into that port. I think it's kind of the same issue. Which I really want a lot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
