MacBook Pro and USB "too much power" problems

probably the only thing you could do is to run this via a powered external USB hub.

I agree. Never tried running two USB monitors un-powered but I am pretty sure you will need a powered USB hub.

Yes this is all about power available. In this case the device exceeds the power available from the host. As mentioned by Ludacrispv and MAC you'll need a powered hub. Or a powered dock instead of the adapter.
