Baseus 100W USB A+C Power Adapter CCGAN100US Review and Test

[@Pathrider]

I bought two of these Baseus power adapters based highly on your extremely clear and informative review of it, and comparing it to other adapters you have reviewed. No other reviewers come close to the amount of detail you go to. Honestly though, I couldn't see the point in subscribing to your channel because hey, how often am I going to buy a power adapter, but your reviews are so good and honest and expose the real facts, that I subscribed because they are just entertaining to watch in themselves. Keep up the good work, and I look forward to your next review! P.S. a review of some wireless charging stations and more power banks would be welcome, too.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Thanks, and yes, I see that point also. I was making other videos but the power adapters are more popular so I make much more regular videos of these. I do want to branch out since I agree completely that power adapters is way too narrow but have to start somewhere. I haven't figured out the exact way to do wireless charging stations but I do need to figure that out still.

[@lordseph]

@@AllThingsOnePlace I did think the same way since it's true that "how often am I going to buy these?" But then again, companies keep releasing and discontinuing products and my number of gadgets keep growing. One good example of this is the Baseus 100w charger (with 2 usb c and 2 usb a), the one with the long power cord has been replaced with a new model with 2 outlet input sockets at the side of it. I've subscribed with the hopes of seeing the new models that have replaced the ones you've featured in the future! :)

Just watched like 10 charger videos of yours, at first I liked Ugreen, then Anker, then Samsung, but seeing your videos I found about Baseus and decided to kit out my whole house with different types of Baseus chargers. Love it, thanks!

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

There are so many brands out there now, I have found the 100W Baseus adapters to be good. Some people really don't like them. They have quality control issues for sure, as I usually mention. But it will be interesting to see how they do over time. I'd like to see them improve the lower power adapters.

I have had this power adapter for around half a year now and I can’t Thank you enough. After bingeing all of your videos at the time I was able to see that this was the best option for me and it had not disappointed me in any way! Your channel reminds me of project farm by providing clear and unbiased reviews. Also after visiting your website I was able to see all of your findings, but I wonder if your would be interested if including your recommendations for each of the different products there as well. This could be all around, budget beast, or for things like power banks ranking them in terms of travel. Thanks again for the great videos and for the lessons!

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Thanks! Also, good to hear! Yeah, the website needs a lot of work still, I agree that adding a sort and suggested feature isn't a bad idea. I was thinking of adding a best of power adapter to the allthings site, since that is ever changing as more adapters get tested and new products are released.

[@JasonRasmussen]

I've been deploying these at my work for remote laptop users and it's a really solid one. Not a fan of the renegotiation amoung similar plugs, but seems you can't get away from that. Can charge a high end laptop, phone and any other device without issue on this one and it's a nice small form factor too with a dim LED, plus it comes with a good 100w rated USBC cable.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Yeah, I was surprised the cable is not bad since it is so thin. Glad to hear you are having success with these!

[@Jp_116]

Stumbled onto your channel while I was looking for reviews on the Anker Nano II 65W and let me say I love all of your videos on these adapters. Very informative and makes it easier to choose which ones to get. Thank you for this. Would love to see you review more of the GaN chargers from Baseus and it's other 20W charger with the "Si technology". I do wonder if that technology of theirs is better than the other 20W adapters 🤔

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Yeah, I have a small mountain of adapters awaiting testing. The main way to check silicon versus gallium nitride is to look at something like a laptop brick from a couple years ago versus these newer USB C bricks. Basically, if they have similar technology in terms of topology they perform the same and really they aren't even much smaller just different form factors. The ones that do get really small tend to leave out things that improve power quality like filtering and power factor correction.

[@Jp_116]

@@AllThingsOnePlace Oh, so getting a smaller form factor does not always equate to being a better charger. I see, I see 🤔

Thank you. I ordered 3 of these after watching your video.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Wow, three. I'm still daily driving this one.

[@Roseirful]

I have the 160W Gan5 version. It does look good and it works well. It goes warm but not hot (I can touch it without issue). With a 2m cable the « classic » charger format is not an issue. I tried it with many devices and tanked it at at least 140W and it worked without issue. My favorite is the Baseus PowerCombo 100W (2 strips + 2 USB C + 2 USB A) because it has an on/off button (this feature is very rare and I liked it on an old Aukey device) and is very practical.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Thanks for sharing! Yeah, I still haven't looked at that one. I have the 240W one I haven't even taken out of the box too. I'm so far behind on videos to make, haha. Yeah, this GaN2 adapter is getting on in years, the modern adapters have made big improvements in USB capabilities.

[@Nightball12]

I went to bed at 4am one night and of course that meant I now had to find the best power adapter on the market, because that's just what you do. No previous experience with this market. Didn't even know you could get multi port adapters. My only two were a 15watt Samsung and an old shitty 8 watt (and I doubt it could even do 8). Bought this after a different video you made, comparing tons of different adapters, and I ended up actually using all 4 ports. Thank you so much! I never knew about Baseus.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

haha. I used the 15W Samsung last week, I, of all people, left my charger at home, but I keep the Samsung in the car as a backup, I'm like a rodent, stashing various chargers in different places. But yeah, this little charger is getting on in years, it does work with the right mix of devices though.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

@@ardenaudreyarji Yeah, that isn't normal behavior and hopefully is still valid for warranty claim because it sounds like it is broken. I'd check a different cable just to make sure it isn't that as a last check, if you have one.

[@bernardoriffo640]

Thanks for your video! I heard about your channel through Reddit and subscribed almost immediately. In my eagerness to use one charger for all my devices I bought (without having seen technical reviews) the Ugreen Nexode 100w. After seeing the list of negative comments on Reddit and then seeing your review, do you recommend replacing it with this Baseus? From what I can see it is much more efficient and safer than the Ugreen.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

I have been using this particular adapter for a while now. I don't have any complaints. It isn't perfect. The Baseus 100W adapter tends to be a decent amount higher performance than the others though.

Hi! Thanks for the great review. I just got mine and i noticed that mine has a distinct fishy/capacitor leak smell on the USB ports. Does yours have that too? Just wondering if I got a bad batch (mine has the same QC pass date as yours).

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

I didn't notice any strange smell beyond the usual plastic smell when opening a new product. If there is a continuous scent I would certainly get a new one since that certainly isn't right. They do use all kinds of weird flux and things to get the lead free solder to work so there could be some residue of that left but I wouldn't expect that much scent from that.

[@samdeur]

I bought the 120w a while back didn’t know about your wonderful channel same goes for the 65w anker.. the 120w Baseus make a lot of noise i only use it on the go.it’s handy when I need to power my phone and laptop in one go

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Yeah, the sweet spot for Baseus is 100W. It looks like they manufacture in a bunch of different factories and at a bunch of different contract manufacturers. Quality varies a lot in the different product ranges. The 120W is decent but it does make a bunch of noise.

[@Anonymouscloudzero]

Make sure it doesn't overheat. Brought mine too a very hot country and it overheated (While Charging Phone & Tablet), bricking it. Now it just flashes white. Otherwise had it for 8 months and it worked great. Will prolly just buy another.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Yeah, reviews are tough.

[@AcasaInNatura]

What exactly is the disadvantage of having a higher idle power consumption? Thanks.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Between the requirement (DOE VI) and the measured value not a lot, roughly $3 versus $2 per year of electricity cost average in the USA as of 2022. Lower power adapters have lower requirements so something more like $0.5 for idle power. Electricity is very inexpensive in the USA though. In europe this could be a quite a lot more per year.

Hi! Really great review! Thinking about getting this in the EU with the type C plug, do you think it will still be as good for 230 V 50 Hz power?

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

The power supply performance isn't bad on 230V, but the leakage through this adapter at that voltage is on the high side, this will induce the tingling feeling in electronics if you use them while plugged in.

[@nissev2665]

Hello, brilliant channel. Torn between this and the BaseUS 120W. Which one you'd recommend? Thanks a lot

100W multiport options all day. The 120W has some issues like the peaks of current during idle and also some coil whine. The Desktop and Wall multiport variants have both been great for me so far.

[@JM-sn5eb]

From time to time I leave charger in wall socket. I'm not afraid to do this with for example samsung chargers. Power quality aside. Would you say that baseus is as safe as samsung? I watched many of your videos. All are great. But to be honest I don't care about power quality. I just don't won't a chsrger to burn my house or to send to much voltage to my device and burn it. Woukd you trust baseus on this field?

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

I have had one of my Baseus power adapters plugged in for about a year now. I throw my watch or phone and laptop all plugged and unplugged randomly throughout the day (USB Side not mains side) and night and they all are always charged and haven't had any problems. They do carry the ETL or Intertek safety listing, a little less known than the UL safety listing but tested to the same quality standards (supposedly is there ever a guarantee?). I am not going to say they are safest thing out there, the safest option is never use anything electronic ever, but they do put effort into making sure that the current products on the market have safety listings, they put more effort in than other companies I have seen. The certificates are available publicly on the Intertek page also if you dig a little.

[@existential_]

Thanks for all the work you do with the chargers. I've been looking for one that offers enough power and for multiple devices. It looks like this Baseus 100W would fit best, but I was eyeing the SlimQ offerings because they include travel adapters. If I get the Baseus, what kind of travel adapters do you recommend? I've watched your Travel Adapter video already but I would just need adapters for the pins only, no need for additional USB ports since the Baseus has them already. Thanks!

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

I am not sure on a specific travel adapter. But here are some tips: I recommend something with proper shutters on the plug, no open holes. They make them with safety listings so see if the adapter has some kind of listing. I recommend a plug/adapter for the country you are going to as opposed to the multiway adapters. It sounds like something for a future video, perhaps whenever I get around to the next round of travel adapters to cover just adapters too.

[@existential_]

@@AllThingsOnePlace Thanks for your response. I'll take a look at plug adapters. If there's one thing I learned from your channel, it's definitely safety listings. Been eyeing the GP-7-3PK from Ceptic but it only has the CE listing, from which I read is for Europe.

Hey man thanks for the helpful video it helps me to find which power adapter is actually a good quality, initially was interested for the ugreen one but this one seems to look better even after 1+ years after it's being released for a 100W version I got couple of questions that you might be able to help.. 1. From your POV is this a better option than CCDK100US (the desktop one) ? since it's smaller and not having cord ? Any consideration of picking the CCDK100US over the CCGAN100US? And does the desktop adapter have better heat management compared to this one? 2. Is it okay to use this charge with this much power, to charge up small electronic devices e.g Bluetooth TWS /headset ?

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Your comment is breaking youtube, it's not letting me reply... I typed a more detailed response but not doing that again. 4th time is a charm? Desktop one is better, cord is fine.

I have it! I haven't reviewed it yet so I am not sure (the packaging gives me worry). This power adapter does have the downfall of being rather large to hang out of the wall. I use mine on a Furman floor power strip so never even noticed the issue. The desktop ones with cables kind of make sense.

[@mikefa5891]

Hmmm... how much better is this charger when compared with the Hyphen-X and the Invzi 100W? Can you make a side-by-side comparison please?

The Baseus and Hyphen-X are very close to each other. The Invzi is different, if you only look at efficiency it's better but in AC that isn't the whole picture.

Hello, I am in the market for a 100w charger and narrowed it down to AmazonBasics 100w and this Baseus 100w adapter, mainly because for the dual type c and type a inputs. The AmazonBasics one because it has a lot of safety ratings and Baseus because I have heard a lot of people recommend it because it is affordable and is efficient. I am mainly worried about weight and heat more than anything. I plan use them for travel mostly. So, which one would you recommend between the two for that?

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

I'd actually go with the Amazon Basics, I think you laid out the reasons well in your comment. I expect both will get warm under full load but the Amazon, even if it is mildly less efficient in some cases, is a little better at higher wattages. Weight and heat I expect the same performance of both. They're very close that way.

[@stef065]

Great review and details! Any chance to know if it works with a Dell XPS 15 charging it at more than 65W or the Dell limits it too?

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Yes, the laptop will limit the charge speed to what it can handle. If the max. charge rate is 65W then that is all it will pull. I think these laptops use Dell's proprietary format and not PD 3.0 so probably hit or miss on support unfortunately. It is annoying companies make it hard to figure this stuff out. From Dell's support forum this year "may or may not support 3rd party adapters, buy a genuine dell 130W USB C adapter for your XPS 15".

[@joaoomega6627]

I have tried using a USB C to barrel port Adapter. It able to do 90W registered in the system. Try it. Using USB C port it will limit to 65w as before. Plus you have a free USB C to use again. Tons on the internet max out at 100w. USB C to 4mm dell barrel. I'm using XPS 9570.

[@StefanAlexandruGeogloman]

I watched the videos but I don't know... What's the difference between Baseus GaN5 Pro 100W (CCGP090202) with 2 ports and Baseus GaN2 Pro 100W (CCGAN2P-L01) with 4 ports? I mean beside the ports. The quality, protocols, other things, the GaN5 vs GaN2?! Is GaN5 better than GaN2 and in what ways? I was looking mainly for laptop on the go and 1 or 2 smartphones (Samsung and Huawei). Thanks for the useful and detailed videos!

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Yeah, there's no difference in the actual switching power transistor technology. Both use Gallium Nitride semiconductors. The GaN number incrementing is usually related to the negotiation of each of changing modes, some improvements in idle usage too. I have tried getting one of the GaN5 adapters a few times, my orders keep getting cancelled.

[@imlando89]

Considering wattage and the other specs, which is better 100w o120w? It is really worth if I buy the 120w base us instead the 100w adapter considering those 20 extra watts?

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

I don't think it is worth it. The single port is still 100W and the USB negotiation is a bit dated at this point so yeah, 100W is a better choice.

[@Dreamtwister2k]

I own both, the desktop and this version of the Baseus 100W power adapter. I mostly use it to charge my laptop and it works like a charm but it gets HOTTT! The thing feels like is about to melt! I'm a bit concern about how hot they get. Are we sure they are within safe temp parameters?

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

They are within safety margins, barely, like most of these, and yes, hot potato required. I use these as reference adapters to charge power banks. I use them for long durations at maximum wattage, if I remember I try to keep them a little more cool with a small computer fan but most of the time I let them get hot. They'll probably not last very long with this condition but it's the same as everyone else. I'm gonna do a whole bit on this in the Anker 240W power adapter video.

[@jakestanable]

hey great vid! Am i right in saying that plugging a single usb-c cable into the charger will allow 100w charging? Im looking at getting the new Lenovo legion 5 pro which supports up to 100w charging via usb-c and the 300w house brick that it comes with is hideous! Thanks!

The analyzer I use in my videos is this www.gwinstek.com/en-global/products/detail/GPM-8310 . This is the least expensive analyzer I could find that meets the criteria for taking such power measurements. I'd prefer a Yokogawa but used they cost a lot more than the GW Instek. Note, that's the thing under the newer analyzer which still works and is in specification but doesn't have a 5 mA range required by the IEC 62301 standby power measurement standard. Yes, I could make a custom current transformer, or shunt, to make it have a 5 mA range. I looked around a lot and the lower priced units don't have the sensitivity to get accurate measurements. THD+N is fairly simple to measure but if you specifically want to look at harmonic content then you need a high sample rate and a high bit depth for analysis.

[@kareneid8439]

can you leave the chargers plugged into the adapter without charging stuff or will it slow down the charging of the plugged in device

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

You can leave cables plugged in. If you leave Apple cables plugged into USB C ports they will negotiate a PD mode and slow down the other ports.

[@AD-xn7pt]

my prefrence is wall a/c adapter but i see you perfer the desktop adapter. is it just your personal prefrence or does the desktop version of this adapter perform better?

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Yeah, the desktop GaN3 adapter is specifically a little better than this one for a couple reasons, efficiency and idle power usage are better on the desktop version. This isn't always the case. The Anker 100W Prime wall adapter is better than the desktop version.

[@DukeEvolution]

Which chargers don’t renegotiate?

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Old chargers, or non-PD chargers don't renegotiate. Then on the newer side, there are a few options out there that will not renegotiate until a certain number of devices are plugged in. The new 250W Anker lets you program one of the ports to not renegotiate. Single port chargers excluded, although technically, any PD device is continuously renegotiating, even if the message is, yes I'm still here and I still need power. But yes, the vast majority renegotiate on plugs and unplugs. The question is how fast can they accomplish this and how many other ports does it disturb.

[@JionFocus]

What's the difference between this and the desktop version? And which one will be better to use as a charger for a gaming laptop?

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

The desktop version is a bit newer, a little better at negotiation with more devices, a little more efficient, and has lower idle power usage. So, in general a better power adapter. The downside is the non-removeable cable which over a decent amount of time may become trouble if you move it a lot. I drag the wall version all over the place and keep the desktop version in place. The limitation is 100W, as long as your laptop is good with 100W these will both work. Some gaming laptops use proprietary connections, voltages or currents and will not work with any non-OEM USB C power brick or still use a barrel connection so things to research.

Sup! Thanks a lot for your in-depth reviews on such a niche topic! Your videos are always a joy to watch. I bought this Baseus 100W adapter on your recommendation but for some reason it has some trouble charging my devices. I have this problem with both my phone, smartwatch, and power bank where it'll say it's charging for a few seconds and then disconnect, permanently. Happens even if it's the only device plugged in. Usually restarting the device resolves it, though sometimes it takes restarting it multiple times even. Replugging the cable or the adapter generally doesn't seem to help, it just disconnects after a few seconds again. Something wrong with how the power is being negotiated between the device and the adapter maybe? Or just a faulty adapter? Just curious if you know anything about this.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Yeah, any behavior like that is certainly not normal. I think Baseus support is not amazing but send a short video or picture of it misbehaving and hopefully they can send a new one. On the off chance that it is a cable with a short in it, try a different cable, or the cables one at a time. I literally had all four ports filled on this yesterday charging various devices and all charged to full no problem.

@@AllThingsOnePlace yea I've tried multiple cables as well, happens with all of them (the cables also work fine with other adapters or power banks).

Question. Why is it when using a USBA to USBC connector using a Quick Charge port to a phone capiable of Quick Charge, that it charges slowly when the usb cable is one direction, but flip it and it goes to fast charging? There is no way to tell unless you mark it for the specific device you are charging. Are there different cables to get that don't do this? An adapter? Is this a limitation of USBA to USBC?

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

So, a USB A port doesn't have the CC pins which are extra pins used to negotiate with USB C PD protocols. There is probably some issue with hand shaking when those pins are missing. Some devices won't charge at all with out them. QC (2 or 3) does not use those pins so technically should be able to pass from any compatible charger to any compatible device or chip. It sounds like a device specific issue where either the charger, cable, or the device doesn't have both sides of the connector populated with data lines.

[@Fabienvg]

This is probably a silly question.. but will the version of this adapter with the EU plug perform the same, or would it need seperate testing?

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

It will be a little lower performance as is typical on the average basis for 230v operation. They do require separate testing. I want to get the eu versions of these adapters for testing.

[@irondebiman6367]

How does the power factor effect the user Experience. After a lot of research I found out that the Power factor multiplied by the KVA is the Actual Power and this multiplied by the efficiency results in the work that is done with the given input Power. But in your test Values the power factor is sometimes around 0.5 and for my current understand this should mean with a 65w Power adapter that I would need 130w to power a device with 65w. But this wouldn´t overline with the Efficiency of the products and so I`m really confused which effect the power factor really has for the user. I would appreaciate any answers that could make this a bit more understandable a lot.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

It is a bit more nuanced than that. In trying to make it simple… VA is the volts times amps, this number being higher than the real power in watts means the current and voltage waveforms aren’t the same shape. This creates losses in wiring and transformers but in residential you don’t pay for anything except the resistive component of losses. Industrial users do pay for that poor power factor in full. In residential it ends up being an effect on the order of 8% if all your devices have non-PFC versus PFC power supplies. My efficiency numbers don’t take into account the resistive losses so non-pfc 65w adapters are a bit worse than they appear efficiency wise. Lower wattage adapters are about the same since the current is very low. Hope this helps a little.

[@irondebiman6367]

@@AllThingsOnePlace Thanks a lot for your explanation. As far as I understood it the problem is that we need more current and more current equals less efficiency because of increased resistance and therefore more heat for non pfc devices.

[@MrTorexko]

At what voltage do you measure the "Power Used" and calculate "Efficiency"? Always at the highest possible (20V)?

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

I test at various voltages. So, the efficiency at 10W would be at 5V out, 25W would be at a 12 or 15V, 50+ watts is always at 20V or higher. If you always test at 20V the efficiency would be a little lower but in general if you are using 10W it is likely a 5V or 9V device. In general when you turn on any PPS/QC/PD mode above 5V the adapter will change to a mode where it uses about 0.5 watts more.

[@MrTorexko]

@@AllThingsOnePlace I see... So when I want to compare efficiency of different adapters, I need to test all of them at the same output percentage (their actual output power / their max output power). Testing all at the same output, for example 10W (5V 2A), wouldn't be a fair comparison, right? And another question: does voltage affect efficiency? Would a 5V 3A output have different efficiency than a 15V 1A?

So, interesting issue I've been facing. I bought this charger a few weeks ago and used it to charge an old tablet and my phone, no issues there. Fast forward to yesterday, and I tried to use it for the first time on my own laptop because it was already plugged in to the outlet and it felt convenient. First I noticed that the laptop would 'shiver' or feel weird when I ran my finger along anywhere on the metal surface. Then, I noticed that the touchpad was lagging and not working properly, specially when trying to use 4 finger gestures. I then unplugged the laptop and waited for a few seconds: that trackpad lag was gone, and the laptop wouldn't shiver when I ran my fingers along it. I then tried the original power brick that came with the laptop and all the issues I listed weren't present. From what I've read it might have something to do with electrical interference/grounding?, is it not grounded?, is that dangerous to my devices?, could it damage the trackpad or any part of my laptop?. I'm in europe and use the european plug version of the charger btw. Thanks.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Yes, this thing sucks at leakage current, the thing you are experiencing is a little AC voltage capacitively coupling to the output through the insides. This is a new test I am adding for this very reason! This charger is fine in the US but on EU voltages it does absolutely terrible! I tested some OEM adapters (Apple, Dell, HP) and they perform much better. So, being earthed can mitigate the problem, it can shunt some of the leakage current to ground, we are talking microamps. It isn't harmful levels but it is noticeable and annoying. I will have a list of buzz or no buzz soon.

[@wrld-lain1629]

@@AllThingsOnePlace Thanks a lot for the reply, you are awesome :) I was mostly worried about damaging my devices using it, but if it isn't harmful (it isn't , right?, just making sure) then I will use it when needed, prioritizing the OEM charger to prevent that annoying sensation when touching my laptop.

Your video was really informative regarding how smart charging type-c devices "negotiate" charging voltages! I have a question: Yesterday I ordered a Baseus 100W GaN 2port charger with a Baseus 65W 30000mAh powerbank. This powerbank's type-c port is input and also output. I would like to connect the deck with a 90degree male to 2 female type-c splitter adapter to the powerbank and the 100W charger. -Is it going to work without harming anyone or damaging any of the aforementioned devices in the short and long term alike? Thank you for reading through my excessively long lines! :)

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Hello! That is a great question. For power delivery to work the 'cc' line of the USB C device has to connect to only one thing. A basic Y cable probably won't even connect this wire which means everything will only run at 5 volts. If there are two devices the data will be corrupt so this also won't work, probably only 5V or you could at worse have one device negotiate 20V and have a second device connected that can't handle that and then damage would happen. So, the maximum charging speed from device to device will probably only be 15 watts. I don't think you will do any damage, but there is a small chance, most likely the adapter or power bank won't deliver the power that the devices are capable of. There are 'powered' Y cables which I will have in my round 4 of USB cables, but those also are kind of terrible. The best solution as of now is one device per USB C cable end. The power bank shouldn't be left plugged in all the time anyway.

Yeah, these compact adapters get hot. Basically all of them do this. It comes down to dissipation of power.
