My 20 watt anker ac adapter doesn't have enough power.
Price
I purchased an affordable asus mb166c external monitor and my current anker usb-c hub would not support video.
The bad part:you already saw, but the price is a bit steep for a hub (at $80).
Minus a half star each for subpar presentation and price 4/5
Shipping
But if i plug video output first, and then power delivery, everything works as expected.
Competitiveness
It also worked with my lenovo laptop, as well as my galaxy s23 ultra.

That said though using a 65w pd charger is still more than adequate to charge the device while using various peripherals and a usbc display

This setup worked but would increasingly stutterfreeze the longer i used it forcing me to constantly unplug and replug it in

In trying to find a solution that didnt split and merge back the display signal with usb datapower this hub was the only one i found that wasnt thunderbolt 34

I will say that i wish the cable to the host device was either longer and less rigid or shorter with an optional extension cable

An ethernet port would have also been nice but using up one of the usba ports with a usb ethernet adapter works if needed
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Plus if i wanted ethernet with it then a dock would probably have been a better option over a hub anyway
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
If you wonder why this costs 23x what most usbc hubs cost you probably dont need it
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I have bought and returned a dozen hubs that cant pass through a usbc display port alt mode signal
