Satechi 12 Port USB Hub with Power Adapter & 2 Control Switches Cheap
Best Review: Satechi 12 Port USB Hub with Power Adapter & 2 Control Switches - I use the Microsoft Flight Simulator with 10 Saitek USB devices. I bought this hub to be able to use all of the devices on one hub. This hub is well designed and durable. The power supply for it was a little under powered for my needs so I added a larger one from [...]. There is nothing wrong with the supplied P.S. just a little less (current wise) than I needed. I am sure that for normal use as opposed to my high current demands the supplied P.S. will be fine for almost any needs.All works great. I liked it so much I bought a second one for other uses.Delivery time from Satechi was very prompt.Later update:This did not turn out quite as well as I had hoped. I found that if a total of 2.00 or more amps were pulled by all USB devices combined on the 12 port hub that the hub will shut down. The power supply that is supplied with the hub is rated at 5V 2.4 amps. As I pointed out in my earlier review I changed over to my own 10 amp supply which worked well until I added a 11th USB device that exceeded the 2.00 amps. The specs for the hub make no mention whatsoever of a maximum current rating for the hub but of course the rating of their own power supply (2.4 amps) indicates a maximum current that should be assumed. The purchaser could not know that until their power supply was in hand. I had hoped that the unit did not have current limiting built in but it does. Satechi should revise their specs to indicate that there is a maximum current that can be pulled by the hub. There is no mention of the total current capacity of their power supply or the hub on Amazon or on the Satechi web site.Long and the short of it is don't exceed 2.00 amps with all USB devices combined on a hub or it will shut down. There is nothing wrong with the hub, they work fine, are durable and very space efficient, it just has a current limitation the user should be aware of.I used my second 12 port hub, made a Y adapter for the 10 amp supply to power both hubs, split the USB device load, 5 devices on one hub and 6 on the other hub to reduce the current being pulled for each hub. They work fine now after very extensive testing.
