    If anyone still haven’t used their JB $10 Perks (expiring on 8 July), there’s a Thor’s mug on Page 12 of the catalogue for $9.98. It becomes free with the Perks voucher :)

      Not everyone is worthy to use it.

      Thanks for the reminder. Need to use mine. See y'all at JB tomorrow.

    • How to get this perk?

    • but it looks like you need to buy 2 to make it a complete set lol or either you buy his hand or his face separately? haha

      There's plenty of coffee mugs on their website at this price, some are doubles I think.

      As an aside, I was told in another thread that using your voucher on a $9.98 item doesn't make it free.

      • I bought an item for $9 recently (Nintendo Switch Zelda Console Skin) and I used the $10 JB Perks and I didn’t have to pay for anything

        • Yes I know, I have done it too with blurays. It was more of a philosophical discussion about what constitutes "free". It's been on my mind ever since.

  • Any advice on getting the Segway Ninebot Kickscooter F40A, going on special for $799

      I recently bought the F40D (same hardware, just different speed limit) for 460 Euros to use on a holiday over there.

      That converts to only 690 AUD, and has a higher tax rate included. Tells me it's not a great price and should go lower here too quite soon. Aim for between $650 to $700 for a bargain.

      Don’t leave it outside the dairy.

  • good

  • Bought it last time. Had challenges when trying to charge my phone and Samsung watch at the same time. Went back to cheapo Chinese one (Heymix yep!) without issues.

  • So charging at this rate doesn't damage your phone battery?

  • What's this about issues for heymix chargers blowing up?

  • Can anyone who has owned Gecko products comment on their quality please, thanks.

    • +1

      As above. Found the charger not great with two devices.

    • Gecko is largely an unknown. I would personally avoid. I would also avoid Heymix.

      Boxall's issues are probably as a result of this being 20W max. This is really only good for a single device connected.

      If two ports is a requirement, maybe this Belkin 37W Dual port or if a single port is required, have a look at something from Samsung, Apple or Belkin in the 20-25w range.

  • This can't charge an iPhone 12 Promax and apple watch at the same time, crap product.

  • +1

    As with other similar products in this price range, expect output to be 15W(5V/3A) if both ports are used at once.

    • That’s the issue I would expect both ports to at least be able to charge my phone (slow speed) and galaxy watch at the same time. Is random if it works.

      • I did read your comment on that, perhaps it's faulty?

        • Maybe. Worth a swap perhaps.

  • +1

    Is this a bit expensive for 20w considering there are 60w+ these days?

    • +4

      Its a deal because of the perks voucher. These deals would gain hardly any traction without it. That and the fact that if you buy a new phone, they dont come with charging bricks anymore.

  • +1

    Grabbed one for the iPhone 11 from the deal the other day. Cheers OP, great timing for me

  • Can I charge my iPhone 13 pro max and Apple Watch at same time?

    • Doubt it. I couldn't charge an oppo and a Samsung watch together.

    • +1

      go for this, it can charge 2 devices together
      ask JB to price beat this BigW deal
      use $10 perks coupon
      final price $16.20
      i know, it could be posted as a deal itself.

    thanks, Need one with my wife needing a new phone and and the FE not coming with a charger.

    I priced matched this over phone:
    Cygnett 32W dual port black.
    https://dccameras.com.au/products/cygnett-powerplus-32w-usb-…
    I think it’s worth extra $4.

    • Great price! Perks might have expired by now.

      • It says till 8th july in my email. I used it today morning.

    • I tried price matching over chat and they're saying no because 9.99 delivery?????

      • Maybe try another store/postcode. The experience is often different.
