[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1482218, member: 46727"] Where do you see that the FaceTime Camera always requires 500 mA even when it's off? I think you're misunderstanding what the system profiler is telling you. The HD Camera only requires 500 mA when it's powered on not when it's off. You don't leave your camera on all the time do you? Blue Tooth does not require or use any noticeable amount of current since devices are paired not attached. Like I advised you before, the hub you're using is probably the reason you're having USB current draw problems. The HD Camera and Blue Tooth have nothing to do with that. [/QUOTE]
