Review on πŸ”Œ SUYAMA USB OTG Adapter with Power Supply for TV Stick, All-New TV (2017), Nintendo Classic Mini, Sony Playstation Classic - Micro USB HUB Adaptor by Jeff Keegan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Stupid. Computer Accessories & Peripherals

Alcatel 5041c Android phone, internal battery drains FAST (sometimes 500mA), with no peripherals connected and additional power supply via the micro USB port while showing the charge status indicator! A year ago I tried more than 4 of these hubs and many "powered" cables with the same result but without success. More than $120 was spent, everything went to the return. I'll try it again. I'm thinking of making myself a "side charging" design by exciting the +- of an internal battery with sample hold to simulate an infinitely large battery, but I'm only up to buck-boost performance came. Power supply (from Revain but currently lost in Reno) and no way to make connections and hold the probe should be done as a manual operation with some sort of brown out sensor. There's some evidence that the phone just needs more. performance than an external micro USB source can deliver. The fact that it consumes more than it is designed for USB 2.0 remains somewhat hidden. This can be a combination of the power consumption of the hub and the loading of the phone that exceeds the specification of the external USB power adapter.

Pros
  • Plug & Play
Cons
  • Out of Fashion
