5V 2A over USB possible?
Posted: Thu May 29, 2014 7:02 am
Hi everyone
I hope this is the right forum for this question. I got my wireless oculus rift setup almost complete except for one little part. The wireless usb transmitter uses a 5V 2A wall plug and I'm searching for a USB plug to use instead. I got a battery pack with a 5V 2.1A output power which should be enough, correct?
USB specifications on Wikipedia says that only USB 3.1 is able to provide 2A or USB power delivery is able to provide even more then that. On the web I only find wall power adapters, however I would need an USB to H-Type Barrel cable (3.4 mm).
Any ideas where I might find that? I know there is one from Startech but they said its only USB 2.0.
Or do you guys have any other idea how I could power this without access to a wall socket?
Thanks in advance
