Fire alarm systems need to be inspected, tested and tagged annually. Testing must include all smoke detectors, manual pull devices, annunciators, visual indicators and strobes, control units, voice/alarm communications systems and any other devices that are a part of the fire alarm system.
it will need a port like this one to get more power from the usb since it only give 5.0 volts and this powered usb give up12 to 24 volts so you dont have that in a laptop and there is no way it could raise the power on the usb port in a laptop without damaging something .http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powered_USB.
He found only 600 mA of current was being used by the Rift, assuming 100% efficiency in the adapter. A USB port is supposed to provide 500 mA of current, so with a soldering gun, [Mike] bridged the DC input jack and the USB port on the Rift. Perhaps unsurprisingly, everything worked perfectly. In case youâve forgotten, Hackaday is getting one of these Oculus Rift dev kits.
