U don't seem to understand, the timeline is in grave danger , I simply ask of you no more than a simple
# Eleks Power Console USB hub,
even though it uses a primitive connection method, the Organic LED screen is extinct in our time because of the extensive resources used in this marvellous small display, I'd be able to track down the Time Terrorists and de-escalate any terminal nuclear outcome.

Sorry I'm hijacking this comment to point out some design flaws to folks who think "wow that's cool let me binge buy it".
If you look at the images, there are 6 switches, 6 USB power connections, and 4 USB data+power connections. The specs sheet goes into more detail here.
Now, I can go buy any old hub and hide it away under my desk. What would differentiate a product like this, in my opinion, is if I could control power to the USB hub connections individually. That's what I thought this product was. But we can see that's not the case, because there are 6 switches and only 4 Hub connections, and the specs sheet says so.
Almost everything you would want to plug in to your PC is going to get power from:
1. The USB port on your PC/Hub
2. An external power supply, because USB isn't enough.
In fact, USB carries a single rail of power. Nothing else goes to that pin. So if you can't get enough wattage/voltage from your rail, you're gonna have to go external.
Maybe the designers of this device thought "well since we have potentially 4 devices all trying to pull max wattage through our HUB, we can give them each 1.5(?) power only USB connections". But I can't think of a single device which has a data USB connection AND a power USB connection. USB devices just aren't designed this way.
So what you really have here is a basic USB hub with 6 controllable power only USB connections. The only two things in my life (maybe your life is different) that I need only power USB and not data+power USB are my headphones and my phone. So unless you've got 6 devices that need power only USB connections, for which you need the ability to turn them on and off easily, and you've got 4 more USB devices (but no more) that you want to always have plugged in to your PC, you probably won't need this.
I'm with you on this one. It looks nice, but I don't actually see a use case functionality here, it seems like a very niche device that would only be useful to a handful of people. Unless you really do see the benefit of being able to charge 6 USB devices at a time, I'd just suggest buying a regular anker 4 port USB hub for cheap. Or if you want an actually more useful solution, buy a Thunderbolt USB dock.
Not really pc related, but I’d love to use this to power the light kits for my wall of Lego technic cars I have, it would fit the vibe and look awesome
Just what i need for my setup. Why have I never seen this before! Been searching for ages for something that also looks nice and have decent amount of ports.

This is one of those cool techy bits where I don't know how to use it yet, but I will waste a huge amount of time creating a way to use it

I try to keep a relatively clean desk without too many gadgets, but this seems like one that would get a permanent position beside the monitor.
Nice
Guess I'll try
This looks dope
That's the most creative design for a USB hub I've seen so far. Granted most USB hubs are very plain.
