When 4 ports aren't enough :)

This is probably the cheapest I have seen a 10 port USB hub that is powered for $17.50usd shipped from Dealextreme.  I have been ordering from this site for the past 2 years and haven't had a bad experience yet.

I just thought I would share this because I am sure most of us have multiple USB devices.  I myself have a GPWiz, OptiWiz, TurboTwist2 Optiwiz, EMS TopGunII (x2) and LED Stand which uses a USB port for power as well, USB Bluetooth adaptor (for Wiimote support) and a Logitech USB RF dongle for Mediaboard.  This could also save you from buying a longer USB A->B cables or USB extension cables and make wiring a little bit neater.

Very nice device for USB wiring purposes. All wires at nice line, add some cable ties and you are ready to go. Thanks for link man. Especially good for laptop users who got low amount of USBs.

Very nice!  I'm going to be needing to get something like this soon, and this looks like it will get the job done nicely!

Also comes in black for those that want to color match with their laptop

I ordered one already and hopefully get here in 2-3 weeks which is the usual turn around for most of my DX orders.

Anyone know of any places in the US that carries these?  I need a couple of these rather quickly and can't really wait for the 2 to 3 weeks it takes to get things from DX.

Meh, why stop at 10 ports, go for 80 ports

When you get it, could you post the ma output on the powersupply?

Just curious, but I've found that many 7 port hubs come with way underpowered PS's, say, 1000 ma.

But with 7 ports each topping out at potentially 500ma, so that's theoretically 3500ma. If the ps tops out at 1000, you may see problems if you drive all the ports hard.

I've seen that first hand with a cheap USB hub I picked up.

Swapped with with a 7 port kinsington with a more powerfull ps and haven't had any problems.

if the ps is strong enough, that would be a very handy device to have around!

Hmm, I wonder how usefull that 80 port board would be. It almost looks like it is something used for industrial machine control, not anything one would use with normal PC devices.

As per the OP, I thought he might be refering to Ethernet as I just ordered one of these:

I am sick of having to keep swapping ethernet cables on the 4 port router just to use the livingroom entertainment computer/system.  


EDIT: Translated from Japanese, the site says it is a USB charging board, nothing more.
