Esepcially if your Touch Pro has the high-current charge hack running to let it draw 900mA off of the Bus. Either that or get a few Lithium AA cells to add auxillary power to the chamber.

Yeah good thinking. Someone smarter than me will have to figure this one out.
Like, how much power does usb 1.1 put out vs 2.0? How much power does it take to run a fan? Is it as much to charge a battery? There are docks that charge the tp and a spare battery at once off a usb connection aren't there?
