Ok.... I was just looking again at the specs for the micro c connector.
and I think it's great they're trying to standardize a little, but the one question they didn't answer is if the
micro-C or USB-C connector is that if they really can support up to 240 watts, and if they stick with the 5.5 volt standard, doesn't that mean about 40 amps over a relatively small connector.
However, I jsut saw info
saying a USB -C port can work up to 20 volts, which to me means that just because the connector fits, doesn't mean it wont blow up your device.
So, if I understand it correctly (and I may not), the connection is standardized, but the voltage levels are now not the
same?
Thanks

What is the power output of a USB port?
As the title says, what's the power output of a USB port? Is it a standard value, or it may change depending on manufacturer/model, and so on? If that value is not standard, how can one determin...
