Looking to get a powered USB hub for my PC. Ideally I'd like one which can provide enough juice to charge phone / tablet too. Anyone got any recommendations ?
USB3.0 nice but not necessary. Would need a minimum of 3 ports on the hub.
I use a Belkin 3.0 4-port. Does what it does, is tiny and looks nice stuck on the wall behind my other monitor. It'll charge up to 2 phones at a time, but won't do iPads - don't know how/if that affects charging other tablets.
I use [url= http://www.amazon.co.uk/Superspeed-Ultrabooks-Microsoft-Raspberry-Specially-made/dp/B00IHQBZSK ]this 8 port usb hub, 4 data port and 4 charging ports[/url].
Thanks chaps, food for thought.
Having done a little more research (well a couple of google searches) I'm drawn to this unit:

Any other recommendations ?
That Hoo Too looks like an almost straight rip-off of an Anker Hub

I have a few things from Anker and they seem very well made.
EDIT - the Hoo Too has charging ports of 1amp and 2.1 amp, whereas the Anker's charging ports are all autosensing 2.1 amp ports.
Ah, cheers! That Anker unit looks a better bet and it's only a few quid more. Thanks.
The Hoo Too does look like a rip of the Anker 🙂
