Possibly, but it depends on the device that's feeding the socket. For
example, My Cambridge 302 outputs 5v on the serial line but only 500mA (so I'm told). It is not enough to charge my Dell Streak 5 - only enough to slow down the discharge. To remedy that situation, I modified a car charger intended for mobile GPS or cell phones (5.17v output) and connected it directly to my ship's DC bus (with a fuse and on/off switch, of course). It will charge the Streak in flight very quickly. I'd suggest you do likewise. Get a car charger that puts out 5v and a USB extender cable. Cut the cable and connect the red and black wires to + and - respectively. It'll supply what you need. "John" wrote in message ... I'm not sure if this can support it or not so I'm asking: Can you plug a USB adapter into the Socket and charge multiple USB devices into the Socket for charging simultaneously? (for example: Socket-4USB Adaptor-2 Phones thanks, John |
