USB-A port in the back of Prime GO: is it a Power Delivery USB (USB PD)?

Hi, I need to know if the USB-A port in the back of the Prime GO (labelled as “USB media”) can deliver 1A of current at 5V. If it’s a Power Deliver (USB PD) port, then it will, on the other hand if it’s a standard USB 2.0 port most likely will not. The specs say nothing about it.

I know it can deliver 500mA (tested by charging a device that draws 500mA without issues), but not sure if it can deliver up to 1A.

Any way to know it?

PD is a USB-C thing.

I don’t believe it is, no.

I have both the Prime Go and Prime 4 and the Prime 4 does have a higher output. (Not PD though).

How do you know that? Did you measure it in some way? How? The Prime Go has a battery and I was wondering if it could use it as a powerbank. I need to connect a device that draws 1A at 5V but I won’t do it until I know if it can deliver that much current.

From memory it’s a 1A output on port 4. This is for iPads or iPhones etc.
