I'm looking for a small USB hub that I can design into a charging base I want to print. So, I'm looking for a USB hub that charges 4 or more devices, but one that plugs into the wall, not a computer. I can only find ones that plug into a computer.
I'm sure someone will come up with a link in 10 seconds.... 9...... 8...... 7......

Something like this? http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/171538507720?lpid=82&chn=ps&ul_noapp=true Search for 'USB wall outlet', there are many different types.

Could you use a charger for a smartphone? They are pretty much just a wall wart charger that you plug a usb into. Use with any usb hub.

If you're looking for a plug-in, there are about a billion of them. "USB charger 4 port".

I've used one like this for years. Probably picked it up at Home Depot.

Amazon search for 4 port USB charger. I suspect one of the top results is what you want. I have a 5 port that is pretty similar to the top hits. I'm assuming you need no hub function (that is, no data connectivity) at all.

You could also search for "powered USB hub" and get a wide selection to pick from, even if you don't need the data capability you could use one for charging.

I use an old USB powered hub as a standalone charger on my bench.

Mike's Amazon link led me to what I'm looking for.

Small enough to be build into the base of a charger, but plugs into the wall via a cord. Thanks all. When I design and print it, I'll post.

This one has a quick charge port so if you ever have/get a quick charge enabled phone it will charge faster. Two bucks more than the one you posted.

Thanks!

I'm going to design a charging station that will house the hub inside the base, with only the A/V power cord coming out.

You'll need to log in to post.
