Electop USB 2.0 A Male To 2 Dual USB Female Jack Y Splitter Charger Cable

This did not work at all for my purposes, sadly. But that's because I made the assumption that it would split the power between the two connectors - which is what I needed in my case to be able to charge two devices from a single USB port. However, after almost returning it, I re-read more carefully the description and it DOES say that one side supports data/sync and the other only power. So for those that want to power two devices (two phones, a phone and an eBook reader, etc), this will NOT work. Likewise those that want to use this for two data devices (for example, hooking a printer and an external hard drive to a single USB port on your Mac/PC)...this will ALSO not work. It only works for the stated purpose - one side for power and the other side for data. So you can, for example, hook up a printer to one side and have your phone *charge* on the other side...but your phone wouldn't be able to sync.Ultimately giving it 4 stars even though it isn't useful for my needs. But it does do what it says (as long as you read carefully, which I did not). I am taking one start off for the fact that although it says "one side sync, one side power", I think they could have been more explicit in the description to say, "This will not let you charge two devices at the same time. It will also not let you use sync or transfer data to two devices." Another reasons for taking off a star is that there are no apparent markings for which connector handles data and which is power only (you have to figure it out by trying both).

This is able to allow my devices to have power so it can give me the best quality out of my device.

Good

The media could not be loaded.  I can’t speak to the issues others have had… I did very extensively read many reviews and was worried this splitter wouldn’t work. So I left it in my save for later for a while… then I just said eff it, it’s ten dollars, just get it and try it. I crossed my fingers hoping it would work for what I wanted it for, and it does!!! 😍 I purchased a fifty dollar ring light with a long stand, but it’s not as bright as the small four dollar tech1 ring lights I already owned, that I bought from Dollarama 😒🙄 lol. So I took one of my tech1 ring lights and wrapped the legs around the cell phone holder so I could have a brighter light, and still enjoy the long pole/stand. The issue this created was needing to have two USB ports available for both ring lights. Which I do have many multi plug adapters with USB ports in my home… but it makes it more of an inconvenience to move around. This splitter not only works to power both lights, but it also extends the length of where my ring light can reach!! Love. This. So. Much! I’m not techie enough to understand what this product is saying it can and cannot do, and what the reviewers are trying to explain with what they wanted and what it’s not doing. So if this helps anyone… it powers both my usb ring lights at the same time… then I tried my two phones, one is an iPhone and one is an old Samsung… both ports worked for charging the Samsung… but only the black port charged the iPhone, the white one did not work to charge the iPhone. But if the iPhone was in the black one and the Samsung was in the white one, they both charged at the same time.

Used this to split headphones and a USB stick on a PS4 and a few days later, the PS4 crashed. Unsure if it was the cable, too much being used at once on the system, or overheating but it made me wary. It worked at least.
