Jan 29 at 4:06 comment added Yolo Gamer Here is a hypothetical example scenario. I’m not near any wall sockets and I’m playing Tetris effect on the quest 3 with a ps5 controlller while streaming to my phone and my friend connects to the game on a Nintendo switch. The switch,quest,iPhone and controller all are usb c and require 20w. But I only have 1 100w usb c port on the power bank. the power bank has enough power to charge all of them to full battery but no way to connect them all in

Jan 27 at 4:26 comment added Yolo Gamer There aren’t many powerbanks that have 5+ ports and if they do they can’t output the 100w needed to charge my laptop. Also I’m trying to have the least amount of things plugged into the walls. The thought is, I can use a charger or power bank to power my laptop but if needed I can plug in a “hub” and power multiple low powered devices.
Jan 26 at 18:26 comment added Romen I think you'll probably have more luck looking for a bigger power bank that has more ports on it. When you have access to wall power you can simply use more chargers plugged into a power bar and don't need a hub at all (this would be cheaper too).
Jan 26 at 16:51 comment added Yolo Gamer The idea is that I can plug a “hub” into the wall charger and then if needed I can charge on the go by plugging the “hub” into the power bank.
Jan 26 at 15:36 comment added Romen So is using multiple chargers from a power bar not an option? Or is mains power not an option at all here? These power delivery "hubs" are always designed to use mains power and do not connect to a USB-C "source" at all, they are the USB-C source (multiple individual chargers in one unit).

Jan 26 at 6:32 comment added Yolo Gamer Simply what I’m trying to do is charge stuff. No data transfer or anything like that. going from a high power port(1x100w) to multiple smaller powered ports(5x20w).
Jan 25 at 22:21 comment added Romen There are products called "power delivery hubs" that do not work like a USB data hub, they just plug into the wall and provide lots of power to each port individually. Some new models support USB-C PD on more than one port. Anker makes a couple IIRC. If you need many ports then this will be very expensive.
Jan 25 at 22:15 comment added JMY1000 @RohitGupta The hub would need to support USB-PD, which is nontrivial.

Jan 25 at 11:24 comment added Rohit Gupta Do you have a hub that connects teh computer to other devices and is plugged into the mains?) I am confused, if you have a powered hub then what does it matter what your charger and power bank do? Forget about what you have. What are you trying to do?
