no coupon price is 25. left is for power and right side for data. may not be as nice when placed on table as shown in the pic. for carrying, I think one with built-in cable is easier.

I understand why a hub needs supplementary power, what I don't understand is why they didn't use the USBC PD protocol. It's kinda strange because they are using a much newer USBC 3.2 Gen2 protocol...
