[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Thanks, they're nothing but power supplies but can't seem to find the information anywhere else.

[@boro057]

It may seem unimportant, but showing a full 360 view of these chargers is 1) very helpful, and 2) surprisingly hard to find. I have a Apple Watch charger stick thing that only plugs in one way. For example, it would be upside down on the 120w charger, but right side up on the 150w charger since the usb-a direction is flipped. Thanks, these videos are awesome and truly helpful. Anker’s site nor amazon have front views of these chargers.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Thanks, that is a great point! I actually fairly regularly run into that myself...what do the connections look like, what are the markings on the product. Anker's webpage and user manual don't even mention the silicon sleeve thing (donut). Product photos will be 7 different orthogonal views all essentially the same. It isn't complicated but for some reason it is.

I read somewhere that the numbering scheme is first digit is the series, second number is the number of ports the third, is performance. Good thing I ordered the 150W

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

I think you are onto something there with the numbering. Although the last number I think is watts. So the nano ii series 30w is a 711. 65w is 715. 100w 736. And you know the 120/150w GaN prime 7. I guess they could have made the 7 an 8 on the 150w.

[@kirkydaturkey]

I've been using the 150W adapter for a week now, and I'm overall happy! It's actually quite hotter than I was expecting based on their marketing. The suction cup is weaker than I'd prefer (adapter still falls out when used at one property's old outlets). It reroutes the watts decently when I have Macbook Pro, iPhone, and Watch plugged in via USB-C, but it seems to take 5-10 minutes to figure this out (originally starts charging Macbook with 50W??).

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Yeah, the power sharing I noticed would reset occasionally while I was testing and I kind of breezed over the fact that the power sharing details supplied by Anker are quite bad. No idea that one of the ports isn't full output power... Worried about labels ruining the aesthetic but then the finish on the product is rubbish so labels would've been nice. I'm curious if mixing the ports up helps with the power distribution figuring out.

[@dannythemedic]

Get a 6 inch extension with ground and that should solve your issue with the falling out (ground hole adds stability)

[@guyfriends1843]

You have to place it with the wording upside down, it stops it from falling

[@Masrafi]

@@AllThingsOnePlace i think the middle port is best. it does have a little logo of a computer next to it and an amazon review mentions similar issues with power negotiation and how the middle port works best. im kind of annoyed that this is the case tho, and im worried if that port fails then the charger is kinda fucked. might go with baseus or some other 140W one next time.

[@calvinklein2414]

Thanks for the test! Interesting to see that Anker does nothing really better than others. Almost a little bit disappointing. Do you expect any other outcome for adapters with EU plug? A couple of weeks ago I went for a Baseus 100W adapter. I’m wondering wether there could be a difference in performance to the US version. Any thoughts?

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

The EU adapters would probably score a little lower (not a huge amount but measurable) in general versus US counterparts. The higher peak voltage in general causes the power factor correction circuit to behave less effectively at lighter loads but also causes lower power factor in non-power factor corrected adapters. All the adapters are the same internally, they just put a different plug on the outside. The real power efficiency may actually be higher though since for more voltage in the current in will be lower and current is a major contributor to heating.

That sounds like the USB cable. The cable will limit power to 60W if it doesn't have an emarker chip in it, cables are usually labelled 100W, or 5A, or 240W or some variation if they can do more than 60W. In terms of car charging, not sure.

[@FBCDC]

I just found your channel and learned about the Baseus chargers. Would you recommend the Baseus over these?

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

It really depends on your needs. Based on my testing and work with both yes I recommend Baseus 100w chargers (multiport only) but that is because they suit my needs. If 120W then Anker wins. I am daily driving the Baseus adapters. I use both brands though. The Anker Nano II 71* series adapters tend to get use because they are so small and Baseus does not have competition here. Anker is very compelling with these 120/150W offerings though, if you need multiple PPS fast charging Anker is the only way to go!

[@NutsAboutGaming]

Looking forward to your review on slimq 330w gan charger

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Wow, these companies are going watt crazy. Then again a laptop with a 40xx series GPU will probably need a small power plant to make it go.

[@haysoos123]

Really wish Anker would make the 150w adapter that has an option for a separate power cord so you don't have to plug it directly into the socket, like you can get for the Apple bricks. I guess you can attach it to an extension cord, but that's pretty janky. Suction cups feels like an iffy solution because wall-mount plates can be very different.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Anker is the first company I have seen try the suction cups. You will notice in the video I used a wall plug with a very flat plate. No chance of it working otherwise. I like the wotobeus solution of including both options, flippy plugs and an adapter to extend it as standard, but the 200W adapter I tested gets a little too toasty for comfort.

Or my unit has some manufacturing defect ?

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

A small whine or squeal is sometimes normal from power adapters. This is usually an inductor that didn't get tacked down quite right or has a slightly different manufacturing tolerance. That isn't a problem. Clicking, popping, buzzing would be considered not normal sounds for power adapter.

[@Kay102103]

Note that the Anker 747 has issues charging many Lenovo laptops such as Lenovo Yoga 9i and Slim Pro. I have 6 chargers which are able to charge at 100 watts or more but the Anker 747 is only able to charge up to 13 watts on my Lenovo 9i whereas the rest can charge up to 90+ watts. Apparently there are some compatibility issues between Anker and some Lenovo laptops. These incompatibility issues are also mentioned in reddit by Anker users

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Yeah, I guess anker did a software update on newer versions of the charger too. This was to make it steam deck compatible. Only charging at 13 watts is obviously some major negotiation problem.

[@RMII80]

Great channel you got going. I'm lost when it comes to the technical stuff but enjoy the information and details that go into it. I have a question when it comes to the Anker 747 vs the Baseus 100w; two different chargers, I understand. However, I recently purchased the 747 thinking it would be able to fast charge my Macbook Pro M1 (140w), but it doesn't. In your opinion, is the extra 50w on the 747 worth the price over the Baseus 100w? Its main use would be to charge a MB M1 Max, iPhone 14 Pro, and an iPad Pro.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

I used the Baseus 100W for a while doing three devices and had no problems. I've heard some people have some issues with power sharing. The phone would have to be on a USB A port with that one so wouldn't be max speed charging but still 10-15 watts so not that much slower really. On the Anker you could maximize the charge speed on the phone and tablet and still have enough to do well charging the macbook. I like that the 747 would have a bit of power budget so it won't get as hot charging multiple devices like the Baseus. But also you could buy two Baseus chargers for the price of one Anker... But yeah, no 140W EPR mode.

[@nikismith2907]

The Anker 150w doesn't charge to 150 watts on one port...So which charger does, from the ones you tested that isn't rated more than 160w and that is actually at the same or better quality than Anker? BTW...why your channel doesn't have millions of subs is mind blowing to me. Absolute quality stuff that no one else on yt comes anywhere close to!

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

There is only one charger that can charge at 150 watts on one USB C port, the framework 180W. It will only do that with the framework laptop at this time, but it is using the USB PD specification that anyone can use. Thanks! It's a niche. I need to branch out more also YT wants a video a day from startups and I don't have time for that.

Another amazing video man. I commented on your other video for the power banks. Question: do I need a 100watt or higher power adapter to charge the Anker 737? or can any adapter do it? But then again I'm guessing lower wattage output means it would take longer to charge the actual power bank right? 😩

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

You are welcome.

[@ucnguyenhong9791]

Thanks for your video, I love watching your videos since they dig into technical points. I have a question about the voltage drop for chargers: as I understand, the more power consumed the more voltage dropped, and the current is pushed higher to satisfy the power. Consequently, it produces more heat, what are the bad effects for the device consuming the power with the dropped voltage besides the heat? And what is the acceptable voltage drop level for the PD profile 20V? Thank you so much!

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Each device produces heat independently. The power adapter produces it from it's inefficiencies, which do happen to be tied to the current it is producing, the wiring through resistance and current contribute, and the device itself which decides what voltage to use for charging and what current to pull, has it's own converter and inefficiencies. The voltage sagging can lead to excessive current consumption if a device expects a certain power level though. So, one of these Anker adapters with a long cable can cause the voltage to drop below the 19V level, and that may trip the device on over current protection. This would cause a slow reset loop. The change from this effect is small, as the current is still around 5A at the 100W power level so going from 20V 5A to 19V and 5.3A isn't going to be a significant change in heat generated or power lost. The power is a variable though, the charger does try to maintain the voltage as well.

[@ucnguyenhong9791]

@@AllThingsOnePlacethanks for your reply, I totally got your idea about the heat generation due to the increasing of current because of voltage sagging to provide the desired power. It may trigger an over-current protection mechanism. So, 2 points can be inferred from voltage sagging: heating and potential over-current occurrence. Besides that, are there any other potential damages in case of voltage dropping?

[@HaloMediaRecords]

Thanks for posting the testing results.. not many reviewers post stats like this instead they just go by their feel..or by sponsors which is the worst

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

haha, yeah, I test everything. I've had offers for reviews, where it's like here's the script, only positive things, you can't compare it to any one else, and you can't do any data other than the specification sheet on the web. Then the offer is you can keep the product for payment, insane demands and zero payment, what a great deal!

[@scottleggejr]

From what I can tell, the anker naming convention is 737 (first 7 is generation, second is number of physical ports, last is the output/watts?) See the 543 and 717 as examples supporting my theory.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Yep, then there's the A number, then the name of the product. It looks like the number scheme is to clear things up, then they started using it for power banks so you have multiple products with the same number. It isn't the best thought out system.

[@MaratGoferman]

Very thorough review!! I still don't understand why the 65W is so bad? Because of the lack of PFC? Making it less efficient? What would be the impact for yearly use? A small suggestion, I Would like to see the volume to power comparison as well(if possible).

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

PFC and THD, very high peak current demands (3-4 amps versus 1.5) are all issues. I am thinking of doing a shorts series on each one of these topics individually but in the end, yes, all of these contribute to what I call hidden efficiency loss. The power meter doesn't see it if measured per the specifications because you measure right at the plug so the real efficiency looks very good. Add in typical system components, outlets, wiring, transformers and these non-PFC and non-linear devices can cost a few dollars more per year (electricity is very cheap but as it gets more expensive this matters more) and also it puts load on the grid, that it doesn't want to deal with especially since it is non-linear. Obviously, larger devices mean more loss and more cost. Also high volume devices, there is a reason energy star light bulbs require PFC.

Nice videos, in general! I have the 737 (Europe) but it barely charges my 65 W Lenovo laptop (it only gives it 5.8 W), so I will return it. All my other strange devices have no problem with it. I'm really disappointed in Anker, I thought they are the best when it comes to power banks and chargers.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

It isn't Anker, in this case, I've heard of cases where Anker will try to add compatibility to devices if they find some that don't work for future revisions. Dell, HP, and Lenovo lock out 3rd party adapters in software on some machines (mine included). It is very hit or miss to find compatible adapters with a lot of laptops unfortunately. They may have put a USB C port on them but that doesn't mean they have to be the same protocol. I use a USB C to barrel plug to make it compatible.

[@Jeitee]

Very informative tests! I was looking for a charger for my phone, smart watch, and potentially other devices. I was disappointed that the 65W performed so low. Would you recommend getting the 120W for charging small devices together and/or individually such as phones, smartwatches, wireless buds, and portable consoles (Steam Deck)? I currently don't have large devices that charge via USB-C, so I don't think the 150W is a good idea. I am currently using Google's 30W charger for my phone, my PC to charge my smartwatch and wireless buds, and the Steam Deck comes with its own charger. If not from Anker, which charger would you recommend for the uses listed above?

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

The 120W charger is worth a try. I think the Steam Deck is a little better now with 3rd party chargers, but that's the only one I'd worry about compatibility with. The google 30W charger isn't a bad charger but yeah one port.

[@RyC2004]

Awesome and unique review. Question. Will the 65watt Anker adapter, with its crap power delivery profile damage phone and tablet electronics or nothing to worry about? Or, simply put, if cost is not an issue, just go for the 747 adapter? Thank you for your time

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

If cost isn't an issue then the 747 is a solid choice, the 737 isn't bad either. I do use the 747 for laptop use. The 65W adapter won't damage anything though. If you are only using lower wattages (a phone or tablet) the 65W isn't a bad choice.

Great channel I just discovered it. I love buying chargers not for testing. I just like having chargers in each room ready to go. You have opened my eyes to the idle power draw. Anyhow, my question is, perhaps you could touch upon charging the Nintendo Switch. I know they don't follow the PD standard correctly, as such almost no PD chargers will say they can charge a Switch. I'm successfully charging my Switch with an older Anker 30w 2 port Powerport PD2 charger, model A2625. It only gives out 5v and 9v on PD, so perhaps I'm just lucky and this is how it is working for me. Do you recommend any current chargers that can potentially safely charge the Switch? I'm looking at the Amazon Basics 2 port 68w charger (USB-C and USB-A).You have not covered this one yet, but I need to have something for a MacBook Air and my Switch. Until now I would always buy Anker but you have shown they are not always the best. Keep up the good work.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Yeah, I try not to get too device specific since so many devices the entire video would be and this device... I focus on the item itself. The PD specification is supported by the nintendo switch dock. I am sure there are different generations of switch at this point also so these could all mean different things. side note the 68W gets a skip rating. I think the issue you will run into is port negotiation as I am not sure how the Switch and MacBook will play with each other on port sharing. I would actually recommend a smaller adapter that can do 15V/3A (maybe Anker Nano II 45W?) specific for that device. This is assuming nintendo switch dock, not a 3rd party, then all bets are off. These all put out 5V until the device requests more than 5V. If you have a USB adapter that constantly puts out more than 5V when not plugged into an end device then it should not be used (some security camera adapters do this, USB C ports are cheap, and these adapters will put in micro print 'not compatible with other devices').

However, connecting it to this 65w adapter and booting results in a warning screen telling me the connected adapter is not powerful enough but it will attempt to boot, this screen must be manually bypassed on each boot. It also gets very, very warm.

It is perfectly safe. It is fine for the electronics. It's minor but it uses more current than it needs to, to do the same job. Thanks to cheap subsidized electricity it doesn't cost much more to operate.

At 6:27 you mention the voltage drop, and I think (as someone who hasn't taken a physics class in many years) I understand the overall concept that to get to the goal power of 100W with a circuit that has more losses, you need more current. But that raises a question of, with more current, is it still safe to use? Is there a way to control how much power each device wants to draw that we are trying to charge (phones, laptops, headphones, power banks, etc.)? Is there a way to control the charging so that you don't get a current overload and damage the device? Are the 120W (737) and 150W (757) Anker chargers safe for something like a M1 Pro MacBook Pro 14 where Apple markets its own 96W charger as the "fast" charger for that laptop if the laptop is trying to get 100W charging from one of the Anker chargers? Thanks for your informative videos. No one else is describing the chargers from your perspective. I think as a consumer I can tell that a charger feels hot and that is a tangible sign that there is some energy being converted to heat and not being used to charge a device. Ideally, I would like to get a charger that is, above all, safe (not going to damage the device at the charging port of the device, and also not going to overload the charger itself and cause that to overheat and create a fire hazard), but also power efficient both during charging and when it is idle and not charging anything but I've maybe forgotten to unplug it from the wall. Additionally, it would be nice to have a charger that is convenient in the sense that the charger is versatile and has both USB C and USB A charging options for a variety of devices. I guess we all want that ideal.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

So, the device decides how much to use already. The device and the power adapter 'talk' to each other, the device says I want 20V the power adapter says I can do 2 amps at 20 V and the device will pull something near that limit. If based around current limit then with an Anker adapter you only get 38W because the voltage drops to 19, in reality with a cable probably 18V so 36W now at that hypothetical 2 amps. If you use a 100W Anker adapter with a MacBook it will negotiate the limit. True on the ideals. Efficiency is complicated in AC but still less heat created is the goal.

[@GeekyGamer167]

In my experience with the 727, when charging my laptop at 100W and then adding another device to the other USB C port the charger actually stays live and renegotiates without turning output off. With both usb C ports in use, both drop all modes to 3A max so 60W peak. The fun part is that my laptop (thinkpad P1Gen 4) will maintain battery level without charging when a charger switches from 100w to 60w, but will not do anything with a 65W charger (20V 3.25A). Wish all laptops had charging compatibility like MacBooks do.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Nice! Yeah, I've been testing and these and depending on the load the negotiation is very fast. These and the newer chargers are among the fastest I've seen. Others take almost 2 seconds to turn back on.

[@GeekyGamer167]

@@AllThingsOnePlace Also I think that the USB PD negotiation boards you're using behave differently than most sink devices would, since it seems that they default to 5V when they're given a new list of PDO's while connected. Most devices wouldn't select 5v, but rather select the same voltage they would on an initial connection. With my phone, that's 9V, and my laptop does 20V. I never see either one drop to 5V when adding additional connections. The distinction between powering off the outputs and sending the sink a new list of PDO's is important to some devices like my laptop. Like I said, if it's presented with 20V 3.25A from the start, it does nothing. But if it gets 20V 5A, then the power supply renegotiates a 20V 1.5A mode, it will continue to run off of that. To be fair, this is mostly just Lenovo being stupid but it means I need a sufficiently powerful starting point in order to get any kind of usable USB C power into it. I got the ugreen 140W and it would power the outputs off and on, which meant my laptop said no whenever another device was added.

I saw that this Anker 737 charger has a little weaker 20 v, do you think this charger will still do the job? You always recommend the Baseus 100w wall charger (CCGAN100US) but from your videos that one also has a weak 20 volt (at overload around 19,193 v). So I guess it would be pretty much the same? Which charger would you choose if you were me? Thanks a lot!

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

The 100W GaN3 Baseus desktop adapter actually fixed the issue with the lower voltage. I am waiting for an updated version of the wall adapter with better port sharing and power output. They all will deliver 100W if the device can make use of it. There is so much variability device side that it basically comes down to how each device can use the power.

I'd like you to test leaving a MFI certified cable in one port without anything connected to it and see if it prevents the other port from achieving the max 65w.

You mention that the power split across the ports will re-negotiate whenever a cable is connected or disconnected. Does this also occur when one device finishes charging but remains connected?

It is device dependent. But, yes it can. My phone swaps between 9 and 5 volts during charging and when it does it resets the other USB C port momentarily. Not all devices do this though and some chargers have a power limit before port sharing so sometimes won't trip the other port (this is usually on larger adapters).

[@mastgo_]

What is the charging output of the 65W charger when connecting 2 devices? Will it divide the charge evenly? Or will it max the first usb-c at 45W and the second at 15W, or something like that? Do you know the specific output for each port when connecting multiple devices? Thanks

[@rpm016t]

So if I understand correctly, from your testing; 65w chargers are typically less efficient than 100w chargers. But if a 65w Anker nano II charger is $75aud and a Baseus 100w is $100aud (a difference of $25), is the cost of the inefficiency over the lifespan of the charger (assume maybe 10 years?) really going to justify spending extra $ for a more efficient higher wattage charger when your device is limited to 45w charging anyway? Or would the costs of the inefficiency be negligible? I feel like a lot of people may avoid 65w chargers based on your findings without properly understanding things (myself included) when really the 65w chargers are perhaps not THAT bad? Do you consider it justified financially spending extra $ for a 100w charger when you don’t actually need the extra wattage? Love your work

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

I wouldn't buy Baseus if it is priced higher. But yeah, if you are charging a 45W device the cost change per year is very small. The issues I've run into with 65W chargers is not enough power or negotiation issues, I recommend the Amazon Basics 65W adapter since it is both efficient and compact, but it is a one trick pony, on the multiport ports drop to low power and then don't charge all my devices. Never had that issue with a 100W charger, always enough even after the power levels drop with lots of devices plugged in. The efficiency boost is a nice plus but probably only worth a dollar or two a year for the time the device actually spends charging. So, cost factors in a lot. If the Anker is cheaper at 65W, that has to weight in on the decision. I've adjusted my newer videos to more clearly take this into consideration.

[@maverick1836]

Based on your videos I watched so far, it seems that non-GaN chargers does have quite better Power Factor and slightly better efficiency than the actual GaN chargers. (Mostly can be seen at 10-25% load percentage) Does that mean non-GaN chargers are better then GaN ones in terms of clean energy charging?

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

It is all about how the power supply is implemented. Many of the 'best in class' chargers are GaN based or a combination of GaN and SiC. Conventional silicon can get there but it has to switch slower and therefore has to be larger. SiC is great for higher power applications or for replacing diodes in certain parts of circuits (boost based PFC circuits for example). GaN is great for its low switching losses but in general they do have higher conduction losses. Tradeoffs have to be made. Cost is also a factor. The losses in other components make a big difference too. Bridge rectifiers, capacitors, transformer cores, output rectifiers/mosfets, etc. There are a lot of pieces to the pie. The primary switching transistor is just one of the pieces especially in the 1 or 2 amp primary range these operate at.

[@junehanzawa5165]

We have used Anker the most both in chargers and USB cables. With that said, most of our Anker USB-A adapters have gone bad. Sometimes within a year, and others after 2 or 3 years or sometimes longer. Have you done any tests, or have any info, on their USB-C adpaters reliability rate?

I don't have anything specific, it's something manufacturers probably guard pretty closely too.

Depends on the use. I am still using the 100W Baseus mostly because I do charge 5V devices (camera batteries) at low watts so those low power devices are a little more efficient on that adapter. The Anker is better if you regularly have a laptop or something larger plugged in: Laptops, Power banks, etc. The Anker is known to be not-compatible with some devices from what I've seen in the comments so far.

[@jonnytu968]

Could you break down the 65W for me? I'm a bit confused. So I see you don't really recommend it because it AC line current distortion is bad, lack of PFC, etc...But what does that all translate into for the user? Does it mean that is consumes more power than it needs to? Or does it mean that there's a higher risk of your device getting damaged when being charged by it? Pretend like I don't understand (because I don't haha). So just trying to understand what these technical differences mean in practice. Thanks, good stuff...

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Yeah, the numbers are small but basically an uncorrected switching power supply (what the 65W adapter is) is very non-sinusoidal. When I show the graph of current voltage and power you want all those lines to be the same shape (power only flows in so it is always positive). When the lines are different shapes with each other these are harmonics that aren't the same as the voltage waveform. The more different these become the more current has to be moved around to do the same amount of work, work is power X time. More current means more loss (lower efficiency) since all components have real losses. I want the most accurate reading so I measure voltage right at the socket but if you extend that through some household wiring, transformers, etc. you find that the lower wattage (65W) adapter ends up using more REAL power (the kind you pay for) than a power factor corrected model at the same power level. I had a video planned on this but for some reason it never made it into production. That is kind of the trick, and it is a small number as electricity is pretty cheap, at least in North America. I did this comparison for 100W adapters for a video and with cheap electricity it is only a few $ per year but the real cost is worse since everything else in the chain has to be scaled up to handle the extra current. Power grids do this with large correction stations but they pay for the real power those devices consume although they can only do time alignment or phase correction if the wave shape is all that from switching power supplies you are out of luck. This is one reason why datacenter power supplies require power factor correction, also commercial locations pay for low power factor. Hope that helps a little.

[@jonnytu968]

@@AllThingsOnePlace Thanks for the detailed explanation, it definitely helps. My biggest concern is regarding device safety. So if I am charging any device (phone/tablet/headphones), I can choose whether I want to do it with this 65W adapter or maybe a 120W or 150W. Now it's clear that the 120W/150W are more efficient from an energy perspective, maybe saving you a couple bucks a year and also better for society as it eases the grid. But in terms of the device itself, is a phone being charged with a 65W without power factor correction more at risk of being damaged or negatively impacted in any way compared to charging with a 120W/150W that does have PFC?

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

@@jonnytu968 From a safety perspective for both keeping the user safe and keeping your device safe Anker devices are actually quite good. They have good safety in terms of electrical isolation. The charging rate is actually determined by the device being charged. So, a 120W power adapter won't force 120w into your phone. The phone/laptop/etc. will decide how much to use.

When I get where I'm going, I'd also like to charge my S22 Ultra at 45w. *** Can a charger with over 75w work on these planes? *** Are larger chargers "smart" enough to only draw around the 60w that my computer wants when that's all that's plugged in on a plane, but grab more on the ground when I add my phone and watch?

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Yes, that is a great point! You would have to go with a 65W adapter if the limit is purely power. The question is how the limit is set on airplanes. If the limit is set as a V*A limit then most 65W adapters will trip the protection circuit faster than a 100W adapter. This probably changes airplane to airplane. Would have to dig through miles of standards to find if the specification on that and what the options are. If the brick is larger than the rating and the device can pull more than available then the power then it will try to use as much as it can and therefore trip the protection circuit, they aren't smart enough to limit on the AC side. It sounds like there is a market for a middle ground adapter with PFC that won't trip and can use the full 75W rating, about 65W out and not trip a circuit sensitive to V*A also. In terms of software limit, I don't know if there is a PC tool that can limit how fast the device charges as an alternate. 45W charging, then you can charge a phone and watch without worrying about going over the limit.

Like anker powerport atom 3, powerport atom 3 slim, powerport atom pd 4, they are all useless for my s20 ultra 🥲. I bought the wrong charger for the wrong phone. It builds some trust issue for me.

can you help me test the Belkin boost charge pro 65w? i really want to know the power efficiency of the adapter. It would be much appreciated if you could help! Best Regards, Perter

I haven't tested that one yet, but I added it to the list. The Belkin 60W is on the channel though so that might give a rough idea of the performance.

can i ask you ? what usb c charger you recommend for razer blade laptop 16 ?

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

I have no idea off the top of my head.

[@hezekiahenterina]

Hi sir, what brand of model can you recommend 140w or even 200w charger

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

I have some bigger adapters on the way soon and hopefully they will be better options than what I've looked at so far. Currently, the idmix 140W and the Anker 150W 747 are my top picks.

I know you are probably already inundated with requests to look at all sorts of chargers, but one I would really quite like to see go under your gauntlet is the Motorola-branded Turbo 50W charger. It's one of the more compact units out there (only 50W so not quite as beefy as all these high wattage chargers you're been reviewing but the size is quite compelling to me, especially the UK-localised version since the UK plug is enormous and the Motorola 50W charger has a collapsible ground pin which makes it much more compact than other similar chargers here in the UK. I had a look around and it looks like Motorola sells EU and US-localised versions of this charger in the EU and NA markets too, would you be able to check this one out? It's relatively affordable (£25 here in the UK, I think US pricing is like $30) and it seems to have the safety certs printed on the body (at least the UK version does) so perhaps whichever OEM is producing these units actually gives a hoot about quality.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

The suggestions keep the series going. I haven't run out and probably won't for a while so thanks for the suggestion! I added it to the list. No idea when it will make it on the channel though. I figured Motorola was out of the game.

[@DuyLeNguyen]

@@AllThingsOnePlace thanks! I believe its manufactured by a third party OEM who just licenses the brand from Motorola, but the packaging/documentation seems decent and it appears they did bother to get the safety certs (I never really paid attention to these safety marks until I saw your reviews).
