     Ah, gotcha, like a powered dock. I have no idea who might make a quality version of one of those.

     You could get an old HP lab power supply. I bet they're quiet. And surprisingly cheap.

     I mean more of a USB C hub. I have some good 12v and variable power supplies.

     I am skeptical.
     
     One time I was using an off-brand laptop charger and suddenly I was like, "Why does my room smell like roasting peanuts" and then looked down at the floor and the thing was on fire.
     
     I carried the smoking mess outside like I had Slimer in a ghost trap and then went and bought some roasted peanuts. You know, because it made me crave peanuts.

     Many chinese are liars I agree
     
     Just looking for a reasonable quality dock, my main issue is RFI for the ham radio and these always seem to produce a ton. No real way to know unless I buy like 10x of them, perform measurements on the best one, and then return the rest of them.
     
     I'd prefer not to do that.
