I just got the alfa wifi card from the hak5 store, and sometimes it likes to try and take more than 500mA from the power which in turn (like it should) shuts off the device. So i wondered if it would be safe to use a y connector (two male usbs to one male mini) or whether i should get a powered hub?

My advice is powered USB hub.

Raspberry Pi's have the same issue, as the pineapple on battery packs. Assuming your using one or the other.
