I dont understand this, some people says that will drain while playing and others dont.
Most of the time ill be playing DSD 2.8 / 5.6 and FLAC 24/192.
Currently my port using a USB 2.0 device will charge between 511mAh - 968mAh depending on the usage (Those results corresponds to an iPad 9.7 at 100% Brightness and 20% respectively).
Will this be enough or im gonna be using the battery?
To round up I'm still wondering if the Q5 will match my FH5 and about the SQ still dont have a clue.
Short answer - manual clearly states "recommend to use 5V 2A charger." My experience confirms this.
Long answer - There are several variables in play on whether your particular setup will be able to play+ charge infinitely. I just did a simple test - left the Q5 plugged into an Apple iPhone charger which specs at 5W max (5V, 1A) playing all day. Sometime around 20+ hrs, it turned off. I repeated this twice. Swapped charger to a 12W model and Q5 ran for 4 days and battery was 100% when I manually turned it off. I was burning in during this time so connected the Q5 output to a 10K load and volume was at 80% max. Music tracks were an equal mix of 44/16, 96/24, and 192/24 ALAC in random loops.
