I've encountered similar issues with various gadgets (SSD cases, USB monitors, etc). They often either stay disconnected, flicker, or reset the whole USB network. It would be great if manufacturers provided clearer details about the power available on the USB bus and which devices are consuming it. Apparently, checking this info directly from Windows isn't possible at the moment.

Thank you for the feedback. The tool displays assigned power for multiple devices, which is more than anticipated. However, it doesn't show the available power on a bus or specify the USB bus each device is connected to. The columns for USB Hub/Port or USB Path remain blank.
