What USB hub to get?

[TonyStovepipe]

I think I need one now as I have six devices and I need to turn them off when playing other games.

 

Been reading some other posts about the each usb slot needs to have 5 amps?

 

The six items so I have connected.

X2 mfd controllers.

Throttle.

Flight stick.

BBI-32 button controller.

BBI-64 button controller.

 

 

I was looking at this for £23

I really like this one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HL7Z46K/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

 

It has two power switches to power 6X2 USB 2 ports. So long as the USB hub has it's own power and is from a reputable vendor, you probably can't go wrong.

I just bought a passively powered USB 3 hub and plugged it into a USB 3 port.

I've had a powered USB 2.0 hub which had problems powering e.g. a TM Cougar, 2 MFD's and pedals.

 

The external power didn't really help for some reason, but once I've passively connected it to the USB 3.0 port on the monitor, the problems were gone.

Thanks all.

 

I bought the ORICO 9 it should be decent from the reviews.

If not I will send it back and try again lol.

 

Thanks.
