THIS hub has 3amp 12 volt brick that is 36 watts.

you lose 10% going from 12 to 5 volts.

that is about 4 watts so the max short term is 32 watts.

long term down rate the 32 by 20%  you get 25.6 watts.

so this may do 4,5,6 usb sticks  like sidehack's

I must note I never used it, but I used lots of 12 volt 3 amp brick hubs. with lots of sticks



this is ⅓ the price . will run 4,5,6 sticks

Good to know- I didn't think about that. Oh, well then.

Also amazon's price is misleading.   Take a look here - http://camelcamelcamel.com/Aukey-Ports-Portable-Aluminum-Adapter/product/B00R7CIQOQ

It has never been over 50 dollars.  The price already went up to 38.99 .     So 33 was not bad for product, but it is not an 87 dollar hub.
