What wattage does the USB port in the console provide? Some newer phones (Moto X in this situation, but stuff like iPads in others) require more than the typical 500ma. How much does the console USB jack provide?
It used to be sufficient to charge the previous phone, a Droid 3 in it's vehicle dock. It won't charge a new Motorola X. Are there any pictures/schematics of the setup underneath this plug? Might it be possible to replace the power leads into it with something with support for more wattage? Assuming, of course, this isn't a plug-and-play fix.
