Can the chromecast with google tv in box charger power a usb hub and the chromecast

by FabianAndrei16

Btw does a cheap usb hub (type c to 1 usb 2.0, 1 usb 3.1 and a type c) can be risky?? The usb hub is hama poket

Nope, contrary to the posts here & other old posts you'll read claiming otherwise if you bother to search various subs, IME it only worked with a high powered wall wort with this USB-C Hub .

There was a compiled list of compatible hubs/chargers made by users, but I've not seen it in almost a year since first getting my CGTV.

EDIT: Took a bit of searching, but I managed to dig up a copy of said list.

It powers my Aukey USB-C hub with no issues.

Maybe. Depends on the hub.

The hub I have seems to work fine.

Depends on what you hook up to the hub. I use a 20-something watt power brick I had lying around. It is more than enough to power the external drive I have plugged in.

Tried with mine and it wouldn't work. Had to get a cheap USB C hub with PD port and a PD compatible USB C charger in place of the original Chromecast charger and cable. Works like a charm.
