[Greg]

Just wondering if anyone knows how much power standard USB ports put out. Im thinking of making a USB powerd drink cooler or something of that sort.

Voltage can change according to the device

Almost like that, but I was going to use a peltier junction to cool it, not warm it. Read all about it f you want, but 5 volts isnt enough to power it. http://www.popsci.com/popsci/how2/article/0,20967,695635,00.html

I did do a mouse mod, it turned out okay, but it was only my first one. It has a few LEDs in it and an engraved logo.

It kinda sucks, but I will as soon as I find my crappy digital camera.
