Interesting. But I'm looking for the opposite. I often have to access my phone, kindle, whatever data, but do not want to charge it. But I guess the usb controller will not accept a data-only connection.
- cbhl 13y agoThere are a number of devices (say, USB thumb drives) that run off the power provided by the USB spec, so, no, that wouldn't work for those devices.
- sigstoat 13y agonot sure what your other respondent is on about. considering there are usb devices which are self powered, i doubt the host controller would be a problem in this situation. without power on the bus, your phone or kindle might not realize they're connected to something, or wake up and try to communicate with it. you basically just need to cut one wire of the cheapest usb cable you can get your hands on, and then you'll know for sure.
