Hey, all.
I have the above head unit, and recently stuck a 40GB USB hard drive (2 1/2" disk in a chassis) onto the unit. The USB port did not supply enough jam to make the disk work, so I added a 5v AC adapter off the cig lighter (seen that idea mentioned in various forums). The combination appears to work fine, but I just got a dire warning from someone in another forum, such that if my AC adapter is grounded, and the USB connection is also grounded, I could be pushing voltage from one connection to the other - potentially frying the disk, and the head unit. So - does anyone out there have this unit, with a USB hard drive slung off the port - powered off the lighter? |
