usb carry 12v for quick rgb extention

[spahr50cal]

i got my rgb lights on my pc mod now i want to extend them to backlight my monitor i dont like the rgb factor conection its not tight and easy to touch the metal case, i want use a empty pci slot/braket and mount a usb port feeding from the 12v rgb connection and make a usb cable running to the backlighting. just unsure if usb cable and port itself can carry the 12v 5a max the controller will putout

I do not know what you want to do but I would suggest that you do not put 12V on a USB cable, that is a recipe for disaster.

yea i have to agree after reading more on this fourm i dident know how to delete post, i did however decide and working on now using cpu sockets i de-soldered from mobo's and old cables i got from psu's for cabling 4 pins like i need for rgb strips and i know they can run 12v safely colors dont match but colored shrink wrap on ends should work
