With the new USB Power Delivery spec this can finally make sense to really start thinking about. Being able to power things that are "non-trivial" as far as power goes would make this go a long way. Imagine your sound system being powered off of a very clean DC power source, would be an audiophile's dream. 20V and 100W would make for a lot of nice options for powering things.

> 20V and 100W would make for a lot of nice options for powering things. Requires a pair of 17AWG stranded wires for a 2m run, allowing 3% cable loss. For comparison, cat6 is 23 or 24AWG stranded, and US residential power wiring is typically 12 or 14AWG solid core. Smaller numbers are bigger, less flexible wires. I guess it won't work with microUSB contacts, or at least not at full power.
