What is the voltage output at the end of a USB connector. The input plug is at the cig lighter receptacle.
I assumed it would be 12v, but, heard it might be 5 v ??? Attached thumbnail(s) |

Why not just use the power supply that came with it?

Why not just use the power supply that came with it? The power cable has USB connectors at each end; I want to power it directly off the fuse panel. Attached thumbnail(s) |

Ok, then get a USB adapter that normally plugs into the cigarette lighter and simply connect 12V from the fuse panel to the center contact and ground to the side contacts on that adapter. That way, you can simply use the usb cable that came with your HUD and everything fits with no other modifications needed. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bye1.gif) |
