A man from Arizona buys a piece of land in the middle of a lava field while vacationing in Hawaii and returns to the island to find a deeper sense of home and build his midlife crisis tropical dream house. In this assemblage of journal entries during the trying year of construction, the author tells some of the secrets of rural Hawaii, revealing her dark underbelly. Meet the crazy neighbors in Puna's "open-air asylum," go on late night lava walks, join a lynch mob against the coqui frogs, and find the true meaning of 'aloha' in the jungle. "What do you do when you've run away from home-again-and you still want to keep running? This is a story of a relationship, not with just a house, but with a vision of home. I could have read twice as long a book with as much excitement-it was heartbreaking and hilarious to watch Gilmore's poignant love affair disintegrate. As a reader, I was rooting for the love affair to last, and I was stubbornly optimistic when it didn't . but finally, he realizes one night, while holding his dog and swinging in the hammock, that he has built a perfect home in paradise-for someone else." -Gillian Kendall, author of "Mr. Ding's Chicken Feet" ." I laughed myself silly and my mouth dropped open in amazement. The man is a true original." -David Henry Sterry, author of "Chicken, Self-Portrait of a Young Man for Rent"Binding Type: Paperback

Works perfectly aside from how hot it gets
The ability to add more ports to my different devices has been very helpful. I’ve tested it on my tablet, phone, desktop, and laptop and it’s worked exactly how I needed to. The only issue I’ve had with it is how hot it gets when using it especially when it’s using pass through charging. It will get noticeably hot when you touch it

Worked great (quick test)
Just got this and did a quick test on both steam deck and Nintendo switch and it worked great
I first plugged in Ethernet and then added HDMI and then power
On the steam deck all three worked as they were plugged in
On the switch nothing worked until the power was plugged in, then everything worked, this is expected for hdmi but it seems like Ethernet should have worked in isolation. I unplugged hdmi and then power and as soon as power was disconnected so was the internet connection. This is trivial and maybe expected but I figured it was worth noting

Redmagic 8pro compatible
I had been searching for a dock/hub that I could use to connect my Redmagic 8pro to my portable monitor via HDMI and this is the only one that I found that worked.
All others would not display any video but the other ports worked for peripherals and such.
I am very happy with this product. It allows me to fully utilize the set up I was hoping for with my phone which is heavily geared towards gaming. I can connect a gaming keyboard and mouse and have access to a wired internet connection and expandable storage all while playing on a great gaming monitor.

GREAT!
I use this all the time. It is lightweight so I carry it in my purse and I'm always prepared. I had to put my name on it b/c it is so popular that it has walked away a few times.
