It's HOT!

Not impressed. I purchased to connect an external monitor to my laptop. It gets hot, and stops working after about 2 hours. Was only using power through, and HDMI.
I tried it again, just using power through and ethernet. It again got too hot, and quit working after a few hours.
Please note that hotter operating temperatures can be expected, especially if the USB-C pass-through charging and/or all ports on the hub are utilized. ** Feel free to contact j5create Technical Support by Live Chat or a Support Ticket if this issue is a concern and they will diagnose, troubleshoot and offer a working solution.

This was a great purchase to compliment my Samsung laptop since it didn't have USB port for a flash drive

Is it the device or my laptop?

Works fine but I keep getting messages on my laptop that it may use more energy than laptop can provide and sometimes the device is not recognized.
Connect a power brick to USB-C for pass-through charge and change your power settings through your OS.

Having problems with this unit getting way too hot when used to connect my external monitor to a HP Envy x360. Its also randomly and intermittently dropping out the video feed to the monitor like its getting unplugged. I would not really recommend this unit and am switching to a different externally powered unit.

One thing about MacBook that bothers me is the lack of USB ports for additional devices. Problem solved with this little item. Great recommendation from the Best Buy staff. Thanks.
That's great to hear! With everything going on in the world, it's important to stay connected. I'm glad that this has made things a little easier for you.
Thanks, j5create

Hello Carlie, Happy to hear that the JCD383 is working well for you. Adding new ports to your computer couldn’t be easier than just plugging in this one device. I hope that you have a good day. Thanks, j5create

It’s a year old now and hasn’t been used much, but works well when used.
The USB-C power-in port supports up to 100W pass-through. However, the computer must support Power Delivery. Please refer to the manufacturer of your hardware for more information on your device. Thank you.

I bought this for my MacBook Air. I wanted this to work but the device heated up. Had to return it.
Using an adapter that heats up during use can be concerning, we understand and apologize for the experience you had. In order to better understand the situation, we recommend contacting support on the packaging and a specialist would be happy to assist and offer a solution. Respectfully, j5create

overall good product but the C USB cord is too short and it has to dangle from usb port.
The JCD383 is perfect for small workspaces, home offices and for on-the-go!

Great udb hub. So far my external drives are running full speed and no lag when transferring data. The option to power this hub makes even more versatile.
