    Default USB passthrough with wall charger??

    Is it possible to use a USB passthough and plug it into the wall charger and use the wall outlet for power instead of the computer. Or would that be too much power and cause damage? ( I am using a dse801.)

    Using a usb wall outlet adapter is a good idea, IMO. It should be a 5V-1A adapter. Here is the one I got and it works great:

    Thank you very much. I am still new to this and did not want to fry anything, but I did not want to be tied to the puter all the time either.

    I always use the wall outlet when I'm at home. I'm using it right now.

    My M403 came with a USB Wall charger, and was wondering if I can use that with my 510 passthrough insted of my usb port on my comp? Anyone try this?

    What he said...or to rip a phrase from the movie "Aliens" - "it's the only way to be sure"

    (you'll need to grab a big-ass USB extension lead though).

    Exclamation Doesnt work for me.

    I have a wall charger that I can plug my 901 usb charger into, but when I tried to use my PT it didnt work. So make sure these people tell you what equipment they are using, because Mine didnt work.
