can I use this device to charge up my computer stuff just by plugging into the usb charger and then to electrical outlet?

you can plug your powersupply for you computer into this and charge your laptop it is simply a clean power supply
1134211
No, that is not the purpose of this unit. This is a power conditioned, a glorified surge protector, not a charger.

If I understand your question, you want to plug in your USB charger into the Furman. That would work but it would also be overkill and I suggest that you get a surge protected multistrip instead which would be more economical. The Furman's strength is its noise filters, etc. which would help audio equipment but not make much a difference, if any, in its use as a source for a charger.

Yeah. This device is exactly like a old school power strip. The difference is it gives clean, protected power. They are specially circuited to provide even, low noise, "conditioned" power. Better applications would be for sound equipment as you are more concerned with "clean" power in this scenario. But certianly works like any other power strip as far as what you can plug into it

It can do anything that a wall outlet can do. It's similar to a power bar, but it manages the voltage a lot closer, reducing or eliminating spikes in voltage and even compensating for lack of voltage. It can be used to plug in anything, but is probably best served for plugging in more sensitive devices...music equipment, hard drives, etc.

No, plug in USB to one of the ports in the computer and the other end to the device. (2 out of 3 connectors are used)

On the unit is a mini usb with standard usb on the other end that plugs into computer or charging unit. I suspect you could plug into any usb but have not verified wattage needed.

Yes, it can be used without connecting the power adapter if your USB device power requirements are low enough. The only power available in that case would be the power supplied by your USB port on the computer, usually only 500 ma.

If you have a usb style electrical (ie. wall socket plug that you can plug a usb cable into), plug, yes. I use my cellphone charger to charge it up when I need to charge via wall instead of my computer.

This is 5V charger for USB devices. You can't use this to charge the laptop

No, power is only needed when using items that exceed your computer's usb maximum millivolt output.

The only way you can do this is by obtaining a USB wall charger, otherwise you can plug into your computers USB port to charge

I charge my Looxcie device via the USB port on my computer. Have not used the power supply to charge the device.

This will charge items that would normally plug into your wall or a USB on your computer.

no, i bought this for the sole purpose of being able to charge my phone and my ipod but it does not apply an ample amount of energy to each circuit, or sometimes even one. it is strictly for usb data into a computer

Yes, that is how I charge mine. It comes with a short USB that you plug into your computer to charge and transfer files.

You cannot when charging from a computer (that's all I use, so I assumed....). But from external power source it looks to be a yes. (sorry folks)

I charge mine with the cord that came with it, it plugs into a regular electrical outlet but you could also use the cord to charge on the computer too. I use the electrical outlet..

Insert the remaining end of the USB Power wire into an AC adapter connected to the wall socket or a charging computer USB port. i use my laptop to charge this device.

Sure you can but IMO it would take double time as the computer USB should have half the output than the car or electricity net connection.

Yes, you can use either the adapter or the USB cord to get power.I use it to conserve USB ports.
