it's hard to read with that popup in the middle and no way to clear it
without an email address, but i didn't see anything that contradicts
what i said underneath, other than a nifty typo.

the point is that no single port is going to source 6.8a. fill all five
ports with 1a devices and it'll be fine. if one of the five is a tablet
that draws 2a, it'll still be fine. if the *total* goes past 6.8a, then
not so fine.

Sorry about that stupid popup.

If you google for "HC363-5U" you find the exact same part branded by
a different company with the EXACT same description EXCEPT that it's
correctly listed as a 35Watt device and not a 40W device.
