Re: G9X USB charging is not working

I have had a similar problem with my Canon G9x. I lost the external charger and hoped that I can still use it by charging the battery inside the camera, using a USB cable. No luck. Nothing worked. Neither a computer usb connection, nor any external charger from 500 mA to 2.1 A. At wits end I tried a battery backup bank and, bingo, it worked. I assume the battery in the backup unit having exactly the same voltage as the Canon lithium battery , it was recognized as a “legitimate “ power source.
