USB power output on Prime 4+

I was just wondering if there was any info on the power wattage output available via USB on the Prime 4+?

I want to run a Control One and use another USB connector to run a Donner WDMX transmitter (5v, 1A is the standard power adapter)

For the sake of 5 to 20 bucks for a usb power plug with 2, 3, 10 sockets on it, it’s not worth risking the prime 4 losing sight (current) for any other, more important core usb functionality.

I would avoid it. Using USB ports on any computer or unit as ‘power source’ is a bad idea.

‘Nominal’ USB 3.0 is 5V / 0.9A

Hi The instructions for Prime 4+ say that usb port 4 can (USB typ B) also be used to charge a device (+5V, 1A)
