Just got one of these for my new 13" pro touch MacBook, plugged it in seemed to work, came back an hour later and battery had drained by a huge amount even though it was powered via the hub. Disconnected the hub and plugged power direct to the port, would not recognise power input, tried another port and it recognised the power but continued to drain battery.
Ran an SMC reset and all seems to be working again, anyone has a problem like this. Also anyone recommend a hub that actually works, loads out there but all seems to have comments about over heating or killing wifi etc!
[doublepost=1516656484][/doublepost]So I see why the battery was draining, the iPhoto face analysis only runs when there is a connected power source, the Mac was showing the power connected but not was not charging, so cpu was hammering away at the phtotanalysisd because it thought it was being charged.
Looks like that anker hub is junk and is confusing the MacBook in some way.
