So I have this USB hub, and so far has been working well with some USB controllers and a GC adapter.
Yesterday it sometimes disconnected my controllers when playing Smash Ultimate, it did that 2 or 3 times then I unplugged the port for rumble and worked fine. So I looked around my house and found a AC adapter with multiple voltages and with a compatible connector, my question is: for a 7 port USB hub what would be the recommended voltage?

All pc usb hubs without their own power supply are 5V only(if it just has a usb plug that plugs into pc). If it has it's own power input/adapter, a barrel plug for example, it MAY? be 12V. Is there a label on the hub at all?
if it has 2 usb plugs, one can be plugged into a cell phone charger, and the other to usb.

You need Amperage not voltage probably, so a 2A 5V supply should do it.

It has no label, but it has an adapter where I can plug an AC adapter. It's a cheap hub that I found in a Mexican flea market... But has worked pretty good so far!

    @K3Nv2 I got some cheapies at wallys, that are pretty good, already have lost a few expensive ones (one falls out and gone, can't find) while cutting grass so bought some cheap ones, and of course never lose these cheap ones. (Cheap meaning only $35, compared to air buds which I only have 1 of 2 now)
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    They need to add air tags to they airbuds..
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @BigOnYa the airtags are bigger than the airpods, they won't fit

    You would think, esp using bluetooth, not GPS, like a "your getting hot-er" meter on your phone.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I think they should tie up diddy, and let all the victims come and abuse him, we'll make a holiday of it every year. (jk, maybe)
