StarTech.com 7-Port USB 3.0 Hub Plus Dedicated Charging Ports - 2 x 2.4A Ports ST93007U2C USB Hubs.

Plugged the mains adapter in, plugged in the USB connectors and that's it. Couldn't be happier. You might consider it expensive but I'm of the mind you get what you pay for.

Plugged the unit in and hit the power button - a couple of the lights flashed blue then went dead. the 2.5amp power sockets dont charge any devices the 7 usb3 ports do not work or recognise any devices that work in other units. No blue power lights on device - unsure if device dead or power supply. product was going to be used to charge a tablet and mobile phone and support several usb devices - nothing too over the top but it just doesnt work. Unsure if defective product or just a poor device.

I bought this product and no power is getting to the device. I tried the USB ports on my PC, and they are all good. I plugged in the USB devices one at a time -- no power is reaching the device. I'd like my money back.

I bought this to use as an all-in-one power supply & hub for an ultra low power Raspberry Pi 4 based server/NAS/DVR. During set up I noticed that one of the charge ports felt a bit loose (i.e. the USB plug felt a bit wobbly when plugged in), though it did still seem to work. As I only needed one of the charging ports (to power the Pi) I just used the other socket which felt more solid. Then two 2.5" USB hard drives as well as a USB-powered TBS DVB tuner were connected to the hub. Everything worked perfectly for just under 4 months, and then everything suddenly stopped working. My voltmeter revealed that the power supply had failed. I cannot tell if the hub or power supply was the root cause of the failure, the wobbly port could possibly have been a symptom of some internal damage. In any case it has now been returned to the retailer and with the refund I have just bought a smaller Startech USB 3 hub (HB30A3A1CST) and a separate power supply for the Pi, which overall works out a bit cheaper, but with less room for expansion. I thought my original plan was a neat solution that minimised power adaptors and offered me plenty of future expansion options. I don't believe anything was being used incorrectly. The overall max power consumption of this system (would have been about 22W, which given the 48W power supply should have been no trouble). Also note that I'm aware the Raspberry Pi 4 spec sheet states that: "A good quality 2.5A power supply can be used if downstream USB peripherals consume less than 500mA in total", but given that in my setup the hub was providing all the power for the downstream peripherals, a 2.4A supply should also have been plenty.

It works but it is advertised incorrectly. I purchased this model of hub because the pictures show that it does not have a block adapter. A block adapter does not fit into my baby proofing cover. I was very disappointed when I opened the box and found a large block adapter. I was really annoyed when the retailer I purchased it from refused to allow me to return it.
