ah ok, i see, you right. In usb.cpp:
double usbdevice::power_usage(struct result_bundle *result, struct
parameter_bundle *bundle)
{
        double power;
        double factor;
        double util;

        if (rootport || !cached_valid)
                return 0.0;


        power = 0;
        factor = get_parameter_value(index, bundle);
        util = get_result_value(r_index, result);

        power += util * factor / 100.0;

        return power;
}



but, if i understand it correctly, this values are not provided by usb.
If you start "powertop --calibrate" it will switch on/off some devices
and measure global power usage.
