Can I use Boss 612UA usb port for charging?

I want to know if the USB port can be used for charging, say, an iPhone.

I mean, it does charge it, I just want know if it does not damage the stereo or the port itself.

It is for powering USB sticks, so can provide some power, but probably not full charging power.
It should be smart enough to not over exert itself.

  • Why port forwarding on port 80? I have a foscam home security camera and it needs port forwarding on port 80 if I want to use my iphone to view it from outside. Surely enough, it works as soon as I open that port. But isn't port 80 open by default? Else how could I view http websites in the first place. I don't get it. It's already open so why open it again?
  • Trouble with 2013 Scion tC USB port? (I have the stock audio system) Every time I plug my iPhone (4) into the usb port to play my music or charge it, nothing happens. I pressed the button on the radio that says iPod/Mp3 but it shows that nothing is connected. How do I get it to work?
  • IPhone changing port broke, can i use charging mat? So, the charging port to my iPhone 4s is broke. No charger will work more then a few seconds. If I buy a charging mat will it work to charge my phone or does the mat still need some some connection through the port? Any suggestions on fixing this without paying an arm and leg?
  • If I buy a new stereo for my car with a USB port can it work in any car? My stereo in my 1998 transport just died. This surprisingly excited me. I just got a new IPhone and I'm constantly installing new music. I'm wondering if I can buy a radio with a USB port and put it in my 98 transport even though my car didn't come with a USB port in the radio. Is this at all possible?
