Powered USB hub or normal USB hub?

[RmatriX1218]

I am having SS808 with stock ROM.

I am running Measy RC12 air mouse.

Planning to add a webcam and another wireless mouse soon.

Hence, I'll require a USB hub.

Question is, weather powered USB hub is required or normal is OK?
Since, I have setup in my living room, I don't want more cables. I'll prefer normal hub. But question is, will it be OK for my requirement?

When powered USB hub is mandatory?

imo powered hub would be needed to run usb HDD. I hope you are running the 808 with a good 2A wall adapter. For webcams it should suffice.

Thanks,

Request people to share what are the maximum peripherals tried with unpowered usb hub?

May I suggest you buy something like THIS. Costs almost nothing and you can use a regular Nokia (thick pin) charger in case you need that extra power (nokia has a few 850/900mA chargers). Check out at your local computer hardware shop.
