can I plug this into a tablet as the main source?

Yes you can plug this into a tablet as main source. The device has it's own ac adapter and plenty of power.

I know for sure it doesn't work on Dell Venue 8 pro just because how its miniUSB slot works.And I've already tried it myself.

No you cannot. I just tried to connect my iPad and it indicated "Not Charging". The email I received from the manufacturer following my purchase from Amazon explained that one could not use this particular hub as a source for charging.

MANUFACTURER ANSWER: Thanks for asking! I'm not sure I understand the question? The main power source for charging? For connecting multiple devices to your tablet? -- If you can comment back to this with information on what tablet you have and what you plan to use this hub for I can try to clarify.

There is a mini HDMI output port on the tablet. You will need a cord with a male mini HDMI plug on it or buy an adapter for it to accept a standard size plug.

I don't believe you can. If it doesn't have a USB plug or adapter, You can't plug it in.

Only if the tablet has both a USB port and a headphone jack. If it does, you're good to go.

Yes, Sir you can use it as a standalone Qi charger I use it that way each day with my tablet.

Sorry, don't know. It is a regular plug in. If you have an adapter you may be able to.

Yes, simply plug it into the wall or to your computer if you have a wall adapter.

Yes, there is a USB port on the device which will supply ample power to usb devices. I am using the 12 volt output to power a small Amateur Radio. (Approximately 2amps through the 12v output) The 5v USB out should handle everything, even tablets.

Yes, you can. It also has an USB port on the dock station and a micro USB on the tablet.

Yes, you can use your Tablet kind of like a PC with this. It allows you to hook up a USB Mouse and Keyboard.

If your tablet has a USB port - I would imagine you could - otherwise I would say NO. It is not wireless.

You can even connect an Xbox controller to it if you want. I forgot to mention that if you connect an external hard drive, it most likely needs an external power source as the tablet won't have the power necessary to run the hard drive on its own.

You can plug an audio line to the tablet directly, since it's headphone jack is not blocked by the dock.

It can be used as a USB power source long as it's low power. aka not a Iphone or tablet (technically you could but it would take like 2 days)

No it cannot. The tablet simply sets inside the connector which gives it power. That being said - this is a high;ly valuable and often used device for me. I absolutely love it, the tablet, and my X1 Carbon (if you are looking for a truly amazing laptop too).

If you know how electricity works, all that matters is amps. There is a 2.1 amp port specifically for iPads and other tablets.
