Is it possible to charge the RaspiBoy using USB connected to an AC Outlet?? or a PC?
Thanks, David, ThunderBoyDavid
Charging via USB
Re: Charging via USB
Only the micro USB is for charging! The two USB connectors are for data only. They should not be used for charging

Yes, I've used both a phone charger and plugged into a laptop. So long as you are using the microUSB on the raspbiboy and not charging while playing you will be fine.

Re: Charging via USB
i have a micro USB cable.... but i didn't know if it would be able to supply enough power to charge the Raspiboy.?? Or, if it would damage the Raspiboy??

Re: Charging via USB
If you charge Raspiboy on a laptop/computer the available power from computer is limited to 0.5A, charging require about 1A to work at full speed. So I would suggest using an AC adapter
