Re: G9X USB charging is not working

Hi all,

I think I have figured it out after some testing:

1. The wall charger must provide between ~0.55 to 1.2 Amperes - neither less then .55, nor 2A and more will charge the camera

2. Computer charging - you need a special cable with less wires - dedicated just for charging. Does not have to be Canon; I have one that came with my bicycle LED light and it works perfectly with my MacBook Pro Retina. If you use a standard micro USB however - the camera will go into "Mass Storage" mode - no charging.

Hope this helps.
