The PiHut's 7 Port USB Hub has been specially manufactured for use with the Raspberry Pi. It's the ideal hub to both power your Raspberry Pi and expand the number of USB ports it has. Fully tested for compatibility, the 7 port hub lets your connect up to seven USB devices to your Raspberry Pi, and includes a 5v 2A power adaptor, for use with high powered devices. This kit comes complete with an EU 2 PIN PLUG.
This USB hub CAN be used to power your Raspberry Pi. Simply connect the Raspberry Pi's micro-USB power input into a spare USB port on the USB hub, using a Micro B USB to USB A cable (not included - available under group POWER), and the Raspberry Pi will boot when power is applied to the USB hub!
This USB hub DOES NOT back-feed power in to the Raspberry Pi's USB ports. Poor quality hubs will back-feed power into the Raspberry Pi USB ports. Not only can this blow the poly fuses on the Pi and cause reboots, it can also cause bad writes on to your SD card and corrupt OS installations.
