Thanks for the info - the description of the item says "Outputs 5v like your Computer/Laptop USB Port". Which now seems a tad misleading. I wish i'd understood this before i bought. Finding an unequivocal description with 'USB standard' is practically impossible in the UK it seems.

Would it be safe to try the sumvision power supply? Is 5.2v too much? Can i check if it is USB standard'?
