Omnicharge - Omni 20+ | All The Power You Need to Recharge Everything

[@SunriseWaterMedia]

That wireless feature is awesome! Great in-depth video, Rick.

[@mladenerak]

I got this 2 days ago. Like I knew you were going to review it, lol. Thanks, great video.

[@Dronevalley]

Wow, great timing. I've had this one for a few weeks and always like to test a product a ton before doing the review. I love this unit and hope you'll find it as useful as I do. Stay tuned for more of these reviews coming soon, next up is the EcoFlow.

[@mikeflanagan1061]

They also have the Omnicharge Ultimate which almost doubles the capacity but has the advantage of a removable battery so you can carry spares. When I go out in the field for the day I bring all 3 battery inserts so in the rough size comparison of a family size cereal box I have 114kmah with AC/DC and USB( A and C) output

[@Dronevalley]

Mike, I wanted to start with the smaller unit and am hoping to review the Ultimate on the channel as well. The removable battery is something that a lot of the Portable Power Station vendors are starting to do on the larger units. EcoFlow is one of them that I'll be reviewing on the channel next week so stay tuned for that. I'm glad that you're enjoying the Omnicharge, I love the one I'm using.

[@joseangel4428]

Absolutely wonderful information. I need this charger for my Mavic Air 2 in the field. Thank you very much!!

[@Dronevalley]

Glad it was helpful! I use this to keep all of my portable gear charged when I'm out flying for the day. Stay tuned for more content this week. Rick

[@joseangel4428]

@@Dronevalley No doubt about!

[@MrRaymond1021]

Yeah that's awesome. Thanks for sharing Rick.

[@lowhombre]

Great info Rick! Thank you for all you do.

[@benbradaghdjiireland403]

when fully charged, how long will it hold the full charge for if unused

[@edwardlamontagne2221]

Thank you Rick for the detailed video. There is one piece of information I can’t find anywhere on this unit. Can you output on the DC port and USB C port at the same time? I know you can’t charge the unit (input) with both at the same time. Any information about this would be greatly appreciated.

[@cyberteck1]

Thanks for the information. I am getting one.

[@mstuartkendall]

Thanks! Will this power a portable pump that is used to inflate a paddle board? The pump only has a cigarette lighter plug, not an AC plug

[@Dronevalley]

Milton. it will work OK for that application and you can get an adapter cable for the 5521 port on the side that allows you to use anything you can plug into a cigarette lighter. Here's a link to one I use - amzn.to/3lbWx2M. Just be sure to set the output voltage to 12V.

[@MRMRS2wheeler]

Hey Rick, great info, thanks. You might want to correct the title to Omni 20+ not 21. Also in the description you misspelled it as Omin. Just sayin 😁

[@Dronevalley]

Thanks for the catch! That's what happens when I post late at night :) I hope you enjoyed the clip and I'll have a few more this week. Rick

[@MRMRS2wheeler]

@@Dronevalley no problem Rick. Happens to me all the time. I did enjoy it as always. Gonna pick up one of these for sure. Thanks for bringing these great gaskets to our attention. I'm a sucker for gadgets.

[@stevepovey2489]

Will this charge from a USB socket on a vehicle into the USB-C socket?

[@16leviathan]

Would it be able to also charge mavic air battery ??

[@rando6323]

Hello Rick, Wow, a lot of information there on the Omnicharger, but thanks, you do a good job explaining the device.

[@pjc962]

Rick if you pass the trust exam can recreational pilots fly at night of course with the strobe on or do you have to take a separate test? We all greatly appreciate all the videos you put out and answers you give us thank you again.

[@slaptoons7418]

Wow! Awesome thank you!! Question: I have a Drawing Tablet 100W (Wacom Mobilestudio 16) and it can drain the Omni in about an hour. However, I did that when I was low on the tablet at 17%. Do you recommend 80-90% on the tablet, then drain the Omnicharger? Im just trying to get the most of my time drawing out in the field. Thank you so much for the detailed review!

[@richard8342]

Rick great info. Could you tell us the price, amazon is out of stock and does not show price .

[@HorseshoerCL]

I just logged onto Amazon. The price is $199 and it is in stock. - 🇺🇸🙏🏻🐴👍🏻

[@richard8342]

@@HorseshoerCL Thank you

[@Dronevalley]

Thanks for the post and the unit is on Amazon here - amzn.to/3f6f9gH. It's a great power bank that can charge a ton of things in the field. Stay tuned for more Power Station content this week. Rick

[@Dronevalley]

Thanks for posting that and I hope you enjoyed the clip! Rick

[@WillieCarpenter17]

Okay I got this today and it says to calibrate I have to drain the battery completely, how am I supposed to do that if I can’t use it? It’s a little confusing

[@Dronevalley]

Willie, you can use it initially to charge a few devices or simply plug a lamp into the AC port. You'll want to drain it down as low as possible, 5% is great and then immediately charge it to full capacity. This helps "condition" the cells and will prolong the life of the unit. I hope that helps and be sure to stop back soon for more content. Rick

[@WillieCarpenter17]

@@Dronevalley that helps so much! I didn’t know I could initially use it, what would be the best route to charge without a pd wall charger, I have an iPhone usb-c wall charger and a regular old usb Apple block, will have to upgrade to something more powerful soon

[@Dronevalley]

@@WillieCarpenter17 No worries, I'm happy to help. You can use those chargers to charge the unit but it will take a long time. The PD charger is better because it can adjust it's voltage and current to match the needs of the unit. They are not terribly expensive and something you'll use a lot with newer equipment.

[@WillieCarpenter17]

@@Dronevalley that’s good to know because I got this charger to power my music work station which was recommended and also my new Mavic 3 batteries ;) any links for any good PD chargers would be great

[@WillieCarpenter17]

@@Dronevalley So i got it to drain fully finally haha, and I have the usb c to usb c charging but I don’t see any indication that it is charging, besides holding the power button and seeing the battery blink on but it doesn’t seem to be charging, I could be wrong, was just wondering

[@Solley2010]

Hi Rick I'm based in the uk .. does this come in a 240V version thank you

[@gray_wolverine63]

Slow down. Great info

[@pplusbthrust]

With the correct rod I think you could put down a short bead.

[@rubinhodrone9204]

Passando para prestigiar aquele super like ✌😃👍

[@benbradaghdjiireland403]

I feel your review is a little bit misleading. Yes i agree that this is a great product. but you do state that it “charges everything you’d need to charge out in the field” when in fact the reality is when the item is fully charged it will only charge little more than 1x mavic 3 battery before it has run out

[@Dronevalley]

Thanks for the post and it comes down to simple math. The unit only provides so many electrons that it can transfer to external devices to charge them. If you're using it with a phone, camera, tablet, controller or any other portable device with reasonable power requirements, you can charge all of them easily from the unit. If on the other hand you're trying to charge something massive like the Mavic 3 battery, you'll deplete the power in a single charge. My "Everything" in the title was meant to convey the broad collection of different devices it could handle with the USB-A / USB-C / AC output. I hope that helps explain things.

[@lowkeylowkey1000]

Being able to charge the device at 100w would be logical. They lock it at 45w, even though the print clearly states it should be maxed out at 75w with DC input. 25v/3a= 75w

[@mkgriff1492]

Where's that zino mini pro?

[@Dronevalley]

I'm asking the same question of Hubsan and have only gotten crickets with my last 2 emails to them. I do have the new DJI Mini SE in hand and will be reviewing that tomorrow so stay tuned. Rick

[@lynsmith1096]

Nice gadget

[@treees]

I just bought one of these. it only charges 1 ma2 batt from 100%.

[@Dronevalley]

Thanks for the post but you have to understand that the Omni 20+ can only charge so many things and when you want to recharge a large battery like the DJI Air 2, you use a lot of juice. It's really a math problem since all you're really doing is trading electrons between the Power Bank and the drone battery. Folks get tripped up over mAh and the real spec you need to consider is Wh. The Omni 20+ has about 71 Wh of energy available when fully charged. The Air 2 battery is 40.42 Wh so you should get a few charges out of the power bank as long as the drone battery isn't fully depleted. If you want to charge it more times, you could move up to a larger power bank like the Omni Ultimate with 142 Wh of capacity. I'm hoping to be able to review that one next so stay tuned. Rick

[@KindFPV]

First Great review. Cool product!

[@ramiroantoniosandoval8719]

Dude you make me dizzy. Relax. Looks like you might get a heart attack. Relax! Can’t liste any more.

[@Dronevalley]

Thanks for the post but I had a lot to cover in the clip and didn't want it to be too long. I hope you enjoyed the content and I'll have more clips posting this week. Rick

[@gray_wolverine63]

I wouldn't recommend this product I've been having problems getting a full change I have contacted them because it's still under warranty and I keep getting a run around with this Company I will never buy from them again. I'm calling you Credit card company to get my money back. I gave them a chance do replace the unit. I did everything they asked me to do even sent photos and videos. This unit is expensive and I should get what i paid for it shouldn't take 24 hours to fully charge and still I wouldn't get fully charged the Highest it would go would be 97%. Other than that the unit works fine but charging is a big problem.

[@Dronevalley]

Rocky, thanks for the post and I'm sorry to hear about all of your issues. I've had good luck with the product and actually own two of them. Mine charges great and really comes in handy when I have along day of flying or travel since it has multiple outputs, including an AC port for using my chargers. I hope you get things sorted out. Rick

[@Leeroy67.]

way too much.

[@Dronevalley]

There was a lot to cover in this clip and I didn't want to miss anything. I wanted to make sure you got all of the information you needed to understand the product. Normally the clips are shorter and I slow down the pace. Stay tuned for more content this week. Rick
