  • ATangk on 14/09/2022 - 11:37

    Oo the old 100W was convenient for having a USB-A as well as 3 USB C's…

    • entropysbane on 14/09/2022 - 13:00

      The 120W one yes. I have two.

      I am tempted Togo for this but I would like one USBA port as well as the three USBc ports to make it perfect.

      This is a PD3.1 spec which you need to get the 140W USBc port so you can connect higher end laptops like a M1 MacBook Pro to in order to get the fast charge.

      • CodeXD on 14/09/2022 - 13:10

        I also have the 120W one and it has been great so far. Only issue is it blocks the other plug in a double AC powerpoint.

        This one has 1.5m Desktop Extension Power Cord so it will fit, but I also need USBA for my micro devices lol.

    • Thinkscape on 15/09/2022 - 09:22

    Even comes with a 3.1 cable, 240W really?

    • Associatedibelievesyd @ Zyron Tech on 14/09/2022 - 11:51

      Its a 1m 240W USB2.0 cable.

        Ah thanks mate, OP needs to correct the post, big difference…

        • CodeXD on 14/09/2022 - 11:56
          +1

          The description says:

          1x 240W USB C to USB C Cable 1m

          It doesn't mention 3.1 cable.

          • Larsson on 14/09/2022 - 11:57

            @CodeXD: 240W is only possible with PD3.1.

            So the cable is neither PD3.1 nor can be240W.

            • CodeXD on 14/09/2022 - 12:00

              @Larsson: I'll let rep reply to this since I copied it from the product description.

              • Larsson on 14/09/2022 - 12:04

                @CodeXD: I see the confusion now, I said 3.1, what I meant was PD3.1. I must have misread the rep's comment about the cable being PD3.1 but USB2. that's totally normal.

            • Associatedibelievesyd @ Zyron Tech on 14/09/2022 - 12:01

              @Larsson: Let me clarify. Its a PD3.1 cable but not USB 3.1

            • Heldnight on 14/09/2022 - 12:02

                • Larsson on 14/09/2022 - 12:07

                  @ibelievesyd: @Heldnight Yeap I must have misread your comment @ibelievesyd, I was always talking about PD3.1, which the cable is as you said. didn't notice it was USB2.0, which yeah can happen and is fine/expected of a charging only cable.

        • entropysbane on 14/09/2022 - 13:10

          It must be a typo and you lot are confusing things.
          You need PD3.1 spec to get to 140W charging capability. This is one of the new GaN chargers that has the chipset that can do that.
          The usbc cable is PD3.1 that if connected to port 3 and no other ports are being used will deliver the full 140W power charge to a laptop.

          The 240w surely refers to the AU power cable that goes from the Power point in the wall to the charger.

          • crayoff on 14/09/2022 - 14:51
            +1

            @entropysbane: 240w means the cable is electronically marked to support the Extended Power Range (EPR) mode of the PD 3.1 spec, supporting higher voltages up to 48V. These cables incorporate "mechanical improvements", as per wikipedia. Max current 5A times 48V equals 240W, which is why they're advertised as such.

    • eggboi on 14/09/2022 - 13:10

      if you plug one end straight into a powerpoint while holding the other end, it'll give you even more than 240w :)

    Lenovo Legions have been updated to support 135W, so this should be a great travel companion for those as long as you don't plan on giving it too much of a workout.

    • Heldnight on 14/09/2022 - 12:05

      Sadly though the new Legions is not PD3.1 but proprietary, so this wouldn't charge at 135w

          Jarrod's Tech on YouTube just did a review on it, it uses an out of spec 20v 6.75A delivery. Very similar to what Dell uses for the XPS range.

      • entropysbane on 14/09/2022 - 15:19

        Which laptops do support P.D. 3.1 at the moment, just the M1 MBP? I was assuming dell XPS and the Legions, but apparently not. Just looked in reddit and it seems there is a Chinese market only one.

    @ibelievesyd Is there a grounded plug available for this/can it be grounded? Both my Mac and my Razer Blade are metal bodies and the tingling sensation is unworkable for me. I can only use the official Apple charger with the grounded 2m extension lead to date.

    Do we finally have an adapter that can charge the Dell XPS 15 series at full power? Because I know Dell cleverly designed their 130-Watt AC Adapter (above the official USB PD spec) to meet the power needs of XPS. It is rated at 20V 6.5A though. Not sure if this Zyron can negotiate with XPS to deliver 130 watts over USB 3.2 Gen 2 (Thunderbolt 3) port?

        I'm very tempted to give you the order number and hopefully you'd escalate the issue so I could get a replacement sent out, but then there's the principle of the matter. Your company ought to respond to tech support emails and warranty claims. I can forego the ~$80 loss for cost of the Deskpod if it means poor business practices are highlighted.
        If I get a replacement item sent out without special treatment, then I'll update my opinion and my responses. I would like to think you treat customers properly, and not just because you want to quiet discontent to sell newer products.

          • NoApostrophePlurals on 15/09/2022 - 00:41

            @ss3imkta: How long ago was your pre order and when did you make your online submission?

            Curious to see if they dug back, way back to offer you support now you've outed them.

            I hope your poor experience loses them lots of business from this post so they learn an expensive lesson.

            I'd also be concerned that they have so many submissions that they can't keep up with them, which means their products are junk.

            If their products were well made, they'd have no need for customers to context them, therefore the small amount of complaints would get resolved within a day, right?

              @NoApostrophePlurals: First email, 10 days ago; no response. Second one was from online submission 8 days ago; no response after asking for video. Third email using online submission 3 days ago; no action until today.

              On the bright side, at least their chargers don't kill my iDevices. My Heymix 2-port chargers (allegedly) slow-killed the usb port of 3 ipads and 1 iphone. They either would not charge any more or would not data-transfer any more. Only realised after figuring out the common culprit. Luckily all warrantied by Apple. I haven't bothered with warranty-ing the Heymix. It was a 4-pack for ~$40.

              Either I'm not having good luck with these new GaN chargers, or they're too new-tech and unreliable.
