Quick Guide

1) Your connected devices cannot deliver power supply to XScreen. You need to get an individual power supply for XScreen.
2) Besides the power adapter provided with XScreen, you may power up XScreen by using other power adapter which the power output should be 5V/2A, or using a standard power bank for the XScreen, XScreen Plus (1080P), XScreen Air and XScreen Duo models. For the XScreen Plus 4K version, you need to get a power supply with 12V/2A output or Power Delivery function. It may damage the built-in battery if you are not using the correct power adapter / power bank.
