Hello Sir! Just wanted to give you a update on this dock. We use this in a work environment and if you use this device and install display link drivers it will allow multiple displays and the internal display as well. However once you add that secondary monitor and use the internal, the driver starts causing the system to respond slower. I believe the driver is just not created the best for the Mac!
@@LonSeidman That is odd. We do have it running on a MacBook Pro with Intel graphics and we couldn’t get the device to use the monitors until we downloaded the display link drivers direct from their website. Maybe it’s not an official work around and i misspoke. I will confirm my findings. Thank you for this information. It is always great to have a discussion about this device because it’s been a pain getting ours to work.
Thanks for your hard work on this. Will the video and usb ports retain some functionality only on computer power or does it require separate external power?
Is the dp port capable of 3440*1440p 144hz? Ultrawide monitor. Thanks Also, is it really 100W passthrough? Some are saying 100W but 85W passthrough 15W for the hub
I use one of these frequently. My employer provided these to everyone for work from home. It works wonderfully. Just make sure you use the proper USB C cord else it wont work.
Just in case you haven't heard already, you were featured in an LTT Plex video yesterday.

I've got an Anker PowerExpand 11-in-1 USB C Hub Adapter instead. Pro with the Anker... 1/8" audio jack. Con with the Anker... permanent USB-C cable
Keep up the great work

Do you know if this hub works as a dock with the Nintendo Switch?
Lon, confirming the laptop you tested the dock/hub with is the Lenovo Slim 7 Pro X?
Yes that was the one I had in at the time
I am thinking about buying this how is usb -A for my external hard drive. I have Lenovo laptop to
It's (late) 2022. Any new USB-C hub that does not have at least a 2.5Gbit Ethernet interface is an automatic pass...
You gosh darn right

Also, is it really 100W passthrough? Some are saying 100W but 85W passthrough 15W for the hub
I was able to verify that it does the 100 watts
@@LonSeidman hey thanks, but wouldn't the hub take back 15w? Really 100w going to the laptop?
Which laptop did you use in this testing? Lenovo Slim 7 pro X with Ryzen CPU and nvidia gpu?
Thanks so much 😊
how is it with the Steam Deck?
I would also like to know this

But DEC already released a VT400 series !
No SDcard reader makes this a hard pass for me.
