I’ve tested the SD card reader, the micro SD card reader, the USB A/3 ports (with an external USB-3 spinning hard drive) and the USB-C data ports, all work just fine now. The previous charger I tried was an Anker 18w USB-C 12v car charger but for whatever reason it didn’t pass power through. * I’ve now tried this with a 30w/18w USB-C Anker 12v car charger and it passes charge power through to the iPad as expected. The build quality of this is overall very good although the PD connector is ever so slightly misaligned so that inserting a cable is sometimes tricky and requires holding at a slight angle. Anker sell a lot of different power supplies and adapters and it would be great to see a table of the power supplies and this hub comparing what power output you will get. I’m only giving 3 stars because they really don’t make this clear.

So if you use the 100w charger that came with the Mac minus the 15w power consumption of the hub and you have 85w - just enough to power the MacBook.

In my case my Anker charger was only a 30w charger - an additional 30w was used to power the charger If you buy a 60w charger the power delivery may not be 60w.


The wattage required by your laptop in my case 85w (THIS WILL NOT CHARGE THE 15Inch MACBOOK - that’s 87w higher than this can deliver). If you want it to power your laptop you have to be aware of a few things - this is going to get complicated. I initially thought it was the hub but after speaking to Anker support it might be a combination of things. I found that this hub was not powering my 2018 13inch MacBook Pro.
