PinePower desktop micro power breaks
#1
I've been observing this fenomen for a while but now I'm sure it's down to PinePower desktop -- each port sporadically looses power for a very brief moment (like half a second or so, not noticeable for human being, but enough for a plugged device to "notice"). While for charging phones (or any other battery powered device) this might not be a big deal, it does however dramatically lowers usefulness of PinePower:
* cannot plug my Raspberry Pi since it will power off completely every now and then
* cannot plug active USB hub with HDD attached as it may result in data loss
* powering Pinebook Pro through Pine's docking deck is very inconvenient -- docking deck starts to pull power from battery when power is unplugged and does not go back when power goes back so one might not even notice when this happens leading to complete battery discharge. Docking deck needs to be replugged to Pinebook Pro so it starts pulling power from socket again.

Did anyone else encounter such behavior?
