(OT, but I'm worried now:) Would using the "service port" on an LG TV purely as a powered USB port be a bad thing? (I've been using mine to power my speakers.)

- forgotusername 14y agoAt a loss to find a single web page now that you ask. The stuff I read was explicit about avoiding the TV's USB port unless it was specifically labelled a USB port. The last time I saw this was a post on Reddit from someone who'd killed their flatmate's TV via plugging stuff into the USB port, again an LG TV. Apologies for the total lack of references.
