My experience with this Wanderer lens cap has been frustrating. I can only briefly connect to it after upgrading the firmware with the message that the USB power source is not strong enough. So, my Primalucelab Eagle cannot power it. Then I tried a Digiport 12 volt powered hub (max 500ma/port) with the same result. The manual indicates that it needs 1 amp output. I see a few 5 volt powered hubs for sale but I'm not seeing a reasonably priced 12 volt option with the required current.
This could be a good product if it just had a power input instead of relying on USB.
Anyone have any advice for a powered hub that would avoid stepping down to 5 volts?
Customer support may exist for Wanderer but if so it is quite hidden.
I may be sending this back...
