Title says it all..just got a new illuminated trackball from ggg for Christmas. I want it to be a single color, do I need to tap into the pc power supply, or can I use the spare 5v on the optiwiz that came with it? |

I have the optiwiz connected to a powered usb hub that also has an ipac 4 and a Logitech wireless receiver for my keyboard. It should be ok then. Thanks Randy, you and your products are awesome. Merry Christmas |
