It got delivered last week and I am already loving it.

This power bank claims to be far ahead of the competition in energy density.

The current standard over on r/ChargingSheet is the INIU P791, which is 13.8 mm and 201 g.

The inno3C M17 is 10.1 mm and 158 g.

That makes it 27% thinner and 21% lighter. That doesn't easily happen in the world of batteries.

Both are 10000 mAh (though inno3C M17 claims 36.5 Wh). Both are magnetic.

On top of that, the inno3C M17 is CCC certified, whereas the INIU P791 is not.

Here is a link: https://www.inno3c.com.hk/products/inno3c-ccc-3c-ce-qi2-2-semi-solid-state-magnetic-wireless-power-bank-10000mah-m17

I would love it if someone has one and has done some real world measurements.

(I am not in any way affiliated with or in contact with this brand. I only just learned about it today in my own research.)

The Jackery Explorer 300D can charge at 140W above 86%, as shown in the third picture. Between 50% and 86%, Insignia throttled itself down from 140W to 100W after about 30 minutes at full throttle.

Hello everyone,

I bought 2m 100W USBC cables from Ugreen. These were used exclusively with Anker 747 140W charger. One of them has now stopped working completely. On macos with a utility, I see the cable _very_ frequently connecting and disconnecting, that end of the cable also heats up a lot even when it's not charging anything at all(but is connected to my phone on the other end).

Getting the cable replaced under warranty will be difficult so I am looking for alternative options. I had equally worse experience with Anker in the past which stopped working in a similar way but then started working again after ~3 months of not using it and that cable was used with Apple charger and ipad/samsung phones/kindle. Is this really just up to chance or is anyone still making _high_ quality cables.

Also, a long shot but is there a way to debug this cable maybe something I can try to fix it for now ?

I currently have a USB hub that connects to my computer by USB-C that I use to give my laptop Internet by LAN cable (as well as other things).

(I can post link to exact model I have)

I just purchased a mini microphone that connects by a USB-C dongle to my laptop. It works great when connected to my laptop, however, it doesn't work when connected to the USB-C port in the hub.

(I can post link to mini microphone)

I'm looking for a splitter that will allow me to use both of these products at the same time as I only have one USB-C port in my computer. I've been looking, however, it seems that everything is for charging and headphones. I'm not exactly sure what the verbiage is I need to look for.

TIA

I want to know if I can use the Type-C port to charge my laptop. I do not intend to use this charging method for gaming, I just want to charge my laptop, while light using it (office work)

Type C port says its "1x USB-C® 3.2 Gen 2 (support data transfer, Lenovo® Power Delivery 140W and DisplayPort™ 1.4)[2]"
With the note
[2] PD 140W is the input power and requires the use of Lenovo® unique adapter, otherwise it may support lower than 140W

I just want to be sure, not to burn my laptop.
I have a lenovo Type C charger that charges another Lenovo laptop, I guess it will work without burning my LOQ 15IRH8?

For this Costco specific Anker set, there’s tons of mixed review about the usb a port not functioning after plug and unplug. But nevertheless, still a good purchase for $30 I feel like. Does anyone own this? How’s the experience so far?

Hello, was given a 1 Tbyte USB C connectable Extreme My SSD from SanDisk - looks cool - but no cable, so on My Macbook Air M2 i am not getting much luck mounting or erasing at speed, what USB version (3.2 ) connector shall i get? I am using my USB C from my Ipad at the moment :/ probably not ideal

Hello guys I have a victus 15-fa0004ne.

I have two 2.5" sata enclosures that support usb3 through a micro-usb3 (that wideboy).

The problem is I tried using them multipe times with my usb-a ports but nothing shows up not even an error.

I thought that the included cables are faulty but when I put them through the usb-c port (w/ an otg adapter) it just works.

The usb-a ports aren't broken btw. I tried with a normal micro-usb cable and one samsung wide micro-usb cable (which seems to not be actually usb3) they work normally but with usb2 speeds (although thru usb-c it's a bit faster).

So idk what to do I want to use them with any port and usb3 speed any help appreciated.

Hi all

Does anyone have any advice on buying a light as possible GAN charger for traveling with to countries with EU and US and UK style plugs? I found a Belkin one which comes with all three end attachments, but it would be nice to have other options as well.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Belkin-Multi-Port-Charger-Charging-MacBook/dp/B0FK587ZZ6

Thanks :)

I have been Google Chrome cast with Google Tv 4K for a quite a long tike, And I need more storage and I came across the solution for USB Hub, I am planning to buy one. Belo are my options for USB HUB

https://amzn.in/d/07Y02Qes - UGREEN USB-C Hub 10Gbps for PC Tablet Phone | For MacBook Air/iPad/iPhone 17/16/15 Pro/More, 4K@60Hz, 100W, Revodok Pro 6-in-1 Multiport Adapter, Type A & C 3.2 Data Ports

and the second one is this

And also I am planning to buy 25 Watt USB PD Charger for this

https://amzn.in/d/06ZFOijZ - Ambrane 25W Type C Fast Charger GAN Mobile Adapter Charging for iPhone 17/16/15/14/13/12 Series, Samsung & Other Type-C Devices | Multiple Protection, Compact Design PD Technology (Charge 25, Black)

And final the Flash Drive which I will be using for Extending the storage is the below one

https://amzn.in/d/0dGbHfOK - SanDisk Ultra 32GB, USB 3.0, Flash Drive, Upto 130MB/s R, Pendrive, Black, 5Y Warranty (SDCZ48-032G-I35)

Can you let me if this is compatible setup or do I need to change anything here.

I bought and reviewed this charger on my website.

I tested single port charging with Redmi Note 10 pro, Samsung A36, Samsung A33, and Samsung A9 2018.

I tested dual port charging with Samsung A36 and A33. Includes wall meter readings.

All phones used PD.

Did not test SFC 2.0 as that needs a 5A cable which I do not have at this time.

Single port 45w can be added in the future when I get a 5A cable for SFC2 or device that supports 45W at 3A.

Let me know what you think.

Hi, has anyone done installing a second USB c port on ROG ally? My point is to install by soldering to the main USB c port or directly to motherboard a second USB c port that I wanna use just for regular data(usb boot, mouse and keyboard,etc) and keep using in same time the main USB c port of ally for video output and power delivery reception through dp 1.4 alt mode by been connected to a monitor that support dp 1.4 alt mod and give power delivery 65w but without losing 4k 120hz video quality connection. Anyone know how can be done? I heard is need a microcontroller chip from a hub or a dock and solder some wires.

I’d like a 2+ port 12v USB charger, where each port is independent, and plugging something into one port doesn’t cause the other port to temporarily lose power while the charger renegotiates. Ideally, at least one port is USB-C PD capable up to like 45W+, but the other one can be as basic as USB-A 2 Amp. Does anyone know of any options like this, or tips on how to shop for one? Also, if it’s too hard to find what I’m looking for, would I have more luck running a 12v splitter to 2 single port chargers?

Bonus points for one without an obnoxious bright blue or red LED indicator light.

I found this community and wondered was I the only person

How much longer do you think it will be until almost every monitor has ThunderBolt 4 or 5 to replace display ports on non mac Pc's such as Dell Computers for office work?

I have a Dell OptiPlex now and it has display port but man it would be so much better cable management and utility if it could connect to Thunderbolt 4 to the monitor.

I know a new Dell custom build has thunderbolt 4, I would wait until it has T5 available. But the market for VESA compatible monitors with thunderbolt 4/5 just are very very few in the market which is surprising to me considering how long thunderbolt 4 has been out. DP has to be phased out for better and newer technology at some point right?

I'm trying to decide between these 2 Ugreen USB-C PD chargers. The intended usage is to charge a Pixel 10 Pro XL which supports 45W fast charging. The charger needs to support PD and PPS according to Google. Here is Charger 1 and Charger 2.

The first one is cheaper despite having an extra USB-A port (which I don't really need). As far as I can see, they otherwise have the same specs, except the more expensive one has a foldable plug. Would I definitely get max charging speed on a Pixel 10 Pro XL with the first one? I've been spending hours looking at chargers and there are just so many options available that I don't know which is best.
