Thanks!

My issue is that my wacom doesn't get enough power from my monitors usb-c port via a usb hub. Maybe I need something externally powered to avoid more cables than one from my MBP?

I've got a wacom bluetooth medium powered through the satechi, I'm assuming it's drawing power from the laptop charger I've also got running through the hub as well.

Current set up is:

into satechi -
usb - c charging cable for my 16in MBP

Out of satechi -
HDMI to external monitor
USB to wacom tablet
USB to lightning charging cable for iphone

Satechi USB-c into MBP

Interesting. Picked up a usb-c to usb converter today, hopefully it’ll power the Wacom when it’s on its own. If not it’ll be hub-time.
