I thought the QPower used the same circuitry as the QPAC (didn't think about the 5.6v problem, though that doesn't affect me).
There are pro's & cons here, the pro's with doing it via USB are;
1. you can use a devices standard cable, replacements costing very little and widely available. If the QPower bits snap/break then it's going to be more difficult & expensive to get replacements. Many will take these data cables with them anyway so they can transfer at cafe's, mates houses or onto laptops.
2. when new devices come out (new propriety interfaces) QPower wont support them.
I always try to go with the well used interface and nothing beats USB for that. A QPower with four USB outputs, using the QPAC 2A board, would have been perfect.
