For my Wh fam, CPPC's power bank is 72Wh, this means your Ally's total theoretical power is 112Wh, which should translate to maybe around ~3hrs or so at full tilt (30W Turbo), or around double that at 15W mode. Also, there's some AI channel I know personally that has done an optimization video that will help to debloat and improve some performance on your Ally.. ;)

I have The JSAUX case and it’s NICE! HOWEVER! I hate the mounting adapters for the battery packs, they just sorta hung there and didn’t lock in so I just used adhesive heavy duty Velcro instead. Worked WAY better, and the adhesive is easily removable so if you want to take it off it easily peels off without leaving any residue and tackiness. The JSAUX battery packs are nice as well, definitely recommend them just keep in mind that they are based in china so expect a whole month to ship.

Try a different usb c cable. Be sure it’s rated for 100w or more and also not too long. The longer they are the less efficient they are. Also be sure it’s on the right port too.
@JohnRGoudy10 ай бұрын
Yeah I tried all the ports in the charger. Listing says it’s rated for 100w though I did get the 10ft as I have a use case for another USB C device that I needed longer cord for. Maybe 10ft was excessive but I didn’t realize length would be a factor….
@cppctek10 ай бұрын
@JohnRGoudy oh wow. Yeah no longer than 3 foot is really good for that much power. You won’t be able to charge good at all over 3 feet. That’s why most of the usb c cables rated at 100w are between 3-6 foot but I usually have a lot of issues the longer they are. They in theory can handle it on paper but as you see they just can’t keep up. Try out the ugreen 100w 3ft cable and it won’t let you down.

I have 3 100w 20,000mah battery banks and a "65w" Anker 24,000mah bank, one port is 45w the other 20w on the Anker. I get an hour and 10 mins off the 100w and at least two hours off of the 45w port because it uses 25w mode on the Ally which is great but the 100w banks are way lighter. I'd just put the big battery on the table, myself. Veektomx 100w battery banks on Amazon. I have the mod case as well.
@megachai10 ай бұрын
i also bought a 40000mah remax powerbank, and need to use a good usb c cable to activate the turbo mode, if you using those uncertified usb c cable, it can charge while you gaming, but you need to manually activate to 25w turbo mode.
@cppctek10 ай бұрын
On a good power bank and cable you can do the 30w turbo mode not just the 25w turbo mode. The 30w can boost to much higher than the 25 can and if your bank is 40,000mah you need to look at the wattage output per port to see if it’s able to at least to 65w out on a single usb c port. Def I’d demand a 40k mah bank to do 30w turbo if my 25k one can

Get the z1 extreme. There’s many reasons they dropped the z1 non extreme in price so much. There’s no comparison at all. I think that the non extreme version isn’t worth the money but the z1e is. Also check out the Lenovo legion go. Bigger screen and higher resolution. There’s also the msi claw coming soon which will rival them all with better battery life and possibly more fps.

@euphoria1430 if you have to add 10% dead zone that’s really rough lol 😂 when your sniping an actually not cheating with scripts on call of duty or playing extremely precise games where movement is key with every micrometer you will notice a better game play experience without any dead zone offset at all. Also guess what. Go to the online controller website shown on my video. Hold the left joystick in any direction and pull the trigger and watch the joystick move lmfao. It’s 100000000000000000000% unavoidable with the Hall effect sticks on the ally due to its placement in proximity to the trigger sensor. No amount of shielding helps.

I still have my hall effect stick on the left side that’s been great for me and i’m super picky. I just adjusted the dead zone to be about 79% and it’s about what the stock stick was just less chance of drift. Not sure why you couldn’t get yours to work.
@cppctek10 ай бұрын
It works but I can say when you change the dead zone that much it actually makes the joystick not make any input until you go past that dead zone and for the games I play that’s no good at all. When you play competitive fps shooters especially you need that super precise accuracy on zero. I’m glad it works for you but for competitive gamers and players who need extremely precise movements off zero it’s crucial. I can tell instantly when I have to change the dead zone settings and it’s not what I want nor many people want. The whole reason I got them was for increased accuracy and spring tension. It’s not worth the drawback of having less accuracy it defeats the entire reason to purchase them quite frankly for me other than a few % less likelyhood for stick drift which at the expense of doing what you have to do would bypass stick drift anyways because it doesn’t recognize input until it goes past that part anyways.
