So do these have LED's going throughout the cable, or just at the connectors/ends?

I doubt they're throughout the cable, that'd be damn expensive, and it would take A LOT of power, since each led has a >.7 volt drop across it.

other than drain the battery faster, no...... you might lose a whole minute of run time when on battery.... :)

You people do know the difference between parallel and series circuits, right? In parallel circuits the voltage stays the same, only the mA drops.

Nice find OP. So, a Type A Male to A Female, would basically be a extension cable, I guess. Maybe one led, and and plastic "optic cable" type line, to glow/blink for the length of the cable. Thinking of getting one, but hate the idea of flashing, could put black tape on it, so not distracting as a extension for usb joystick. Not flying the Enterprise.

This is a good deal, but I don't need flashing leds, so I checked around and found that I could get high-speed 6 foot USB 2.0 certified extension cables on eBay for around $3 each shipped (depending on qty). If you are interested in this deal search for "6 FT USB 2.0 Extension Cable". The dealer is abacus24-7. You can order as many as you want after you click Buy-It-Now.
This is strictly a Buy-It-Now deal. Price is $1.75 plus $2.50 shipping for the first item plus $.50 for each additional item. For example, 5 cables will cost $13.25 total.
