I had to put the big power draws on the strip and keep just a few on the computer itself.Īnyway, back to present time. I learned over time that i had to be careful when i had so many usb devices - wireless light up surround headset, light up wireless charging keybaord, wireless mouse, standalone desktop mic, cellphone charging pad, 15.6" drawing tablet etc. However, the strip itself does consume about a devices worth of power, when connected to the computer, even tho it has its own power, the computer for some reason still give it at least 1 devices worth of power draw, which meant that i could only plug about 2 other light-up devices into my computer (seperate from the usb strip) before all my problems came back again. I figured out after a while that the problem was a mix of different things: Old usb ports were not giving enough power to my light up keyboard, and the computer was running low on power (maybe due to an old pcu) and so i went out and bought a powered usb strip, which solved ALL my computer problems all at once. I'd notice that sometimes my mouse or my keyboard wouldnt light up as bright, sometimes the keyboard lights went out, sometimes my drawing tablet would lag out on me, the pen would stop responding on occassion etc. To expand on that, i'll give you a lil bit of my pc history over the last one/two years I have too many things plugged in and my pc is not the youngest pc out there. I want to post a reply to this, i know its a year old, but i had this issue myself recently and only by chance and circumstance (other unrelated events with my pc that happened in the past year) did i figure out what the problem was.
