I notice a power usage increase when I installed the Hub,
but once I saw the Hub in a dark room, I could see why,
surely there is no logical reason to have the Status lights and the Virgin Logo so bright, in a dark room it looks like a disco light show,
Blue and green flashing from the side and the same with a grid pattern from the top

The superhub seems to be out of proportion to its capabilities IMO,
I use the Superhub together with an Apple Time Capsule
My Time Capsule is slightly smaller and has an integral PSU a fan two wireless antenna's and a 1TB hard Drive in a similar space
The TC also delivers automatic dual channel connections and is far more stable again IMO,
I can only think that the housing on the HUB aids cooling a well as providing an illuminated Virgin Logo for all to see
