So..... not really for kids. Just big kids like myself. I'm a huge LEGO addict (yes, I'm 27 and build LEGO regularly). I wanted to make my first USB PassThrough so of course I grabbed some extra bricks and threw something together....

Nothing fancy here. Just a 510 connector, a switch from RadioShack, and an old USB cable. I'm having an issue where its drawing too much power and my computer gets angry and turns off the port. Any help with that would be appreciated. As long as I don't hold the power too long it work fine though. Standard Totally Wicked atty regular resistance. Same issue with a standard Carto.

I'm making a video right now to show it work and a better look...
