So im looking for a hub for some block erupters, but i dont know what kind og power they should have

ive been looking at a 13 port usb 2.0 hub with 5V/2A and i dont know if it got enough power.

also ive been looking at the 49 port hub from ASICminer but cant find a reseller in europe.

5V*2A=Max 10 watt.
Your usb hub won't work with more than 4 block erupters.
Probably max 3 block erupter otherwise you get a lot hardware error.
Each block erupter use 2.5 watt at least.
And be carefull with cheap adapters. They get really hot and might catch fire, they're not design for block erupters, but for normal use.
