    You can find out a lot of infromation on the USB 2.0 spec at www.usb.org.

    It looks as though 2.5 watts is about the max.

    100mA at 5V normally with standard descriptor. Up to 500mA max. at 5V available with successful negotiation only. So that's 0.5W and 2.5W respectively like hgmjr posted above.
