About this product

The USB 2.0 VGA Display Adapter acts as an external graphics card for your Mac or PC. It allows you to add an additional VGA display through your USB 2.0 port. There’s no need to open your computer to add an expensive graphics card. With this adapter, you simply load the drivers, plug the adapter into the USB port, plug the VGA monitor cable into the adapter and you are ready to go. The Display Adapter supports three viewing modes. Primary Mode allows you to have individual applications open on each monitor, vastly improving productivity. Extended Mode allows you to extend your desktop across multiple displays, which can be great for spreadsheets. Mirroring Mode is used to clone one screen onto another, which can be ideal for presentations.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars
Works with small caveats
As suggested in the installation guide, I first downloaded the latest drivers from the manufacturer's website and the adapter worked immediately. It supports 1920 x 1080 resolution over a USB 2.0 port as described and the desktop appears visually identical to the one served by my laptops internal VGA card. I do find that the laptop does seem to run hotter when the adapter is in use (evidenced by the more frequent exhaust fan cycling) so I suspect your battery life may be impacted as a result. It's possible that it is also interfering with my wireless mouse (Microsoft Wireless Mouse 5000) as I experience occasional movement latency when using the adapter.

Great for adding additiona monitors!
This is a great product for adding additional monitors to your system, or laptop... I have a Lenovo all in one computer, so there is no adding an internal graphics adapter... This works great for business applications....I have 3 hooked to my computer and they all work great! I think its important to point out that I use these in a business application, I have NO idea of how well they will work for gaming... as far as any type of computing... well, I watch youtube video's and they work great!

Great for a first time user.
This is my first attempt to hook up two monitors to one PC.You must follow the MUST READ FIRST INSTRUCTIONS and down load the new up to date drivers before plugin the adapter it will work great. The best then to do also is down load the manual for the JUA210 USB 2.0-to-VGA display adapter. It will tell you everything you need to know. I am very happy with the device.

Works great
After an initial problem with the setup which the company tech was able to quickly help me with (it involved upgrading my computer's video driver), the installation was a snap, and the adapter works absolutely beautifully. One thing I was concerned about was any lag in the display on the second monitor as I had heard that this can happen on USB-connected displays. But this issue did not arise. The second monitor's display is quick and responsive, and I am greatly enjoying having two monitors with an extended desktop. Highly recommended!
