          Thank goodness. Now I gotta work on mai comprehention

    • +5

      I think the 65w is a little more compact, the 95w is a 'slim' style so it has a lower profile but is noticeably wider. Specs are here and here.

      Edit: the specs I posted earlier for the 65w don't actually show anything useful, but the specs for this one should be nearly identical.

        thank you

    Got one of these several months ago. Good, bog standard fast charger than won't burn your house down. Prefer using something like this than some dodgy off-brand multiport GaN charger.

      Heymix: You might as well call my name.

        You have to tell it what you (don't) want.
        HeyMix: Slow down & don't burn my house ;)
        Google Assistant: I was just listening If you call my name…
        Siri: Mee too. We all take care of your privacy & promise we won't tell too many people why your house might burn.

  • Lenovo is 1/2 the price when compared to the sold out HP Dual USB-C Port 65W GaN Charger $39 + Delivery deal

      That's a slim model though. Would fit better as a travel charger.

    • In addition to GaN & Dual USB C ports, I also find HP chargers are of excellent build quality

  • Cable length? Would want block to sit on the floor with standing desk raised plus enough table reach

    • +1

      On mine (65W) 180cm give or take 10cm.

      • Looks perfect. The laptop one dangles

    • You can buy USB-C Female to Male extension cable for that.

        Buying a reliable Lenovo laptop charger then pumping 65-95W through some random Aliexpress cable. Kind of defeats the point, no?

        Just buy a Heymix and be done with it.

        • +1

          Lenovo is on AliExpress too!

        • "random Aliexpress cables" (from OzBargain) have been the best I've had so far

          • @Zilch: Good for you. It should be matched with "random 95W USB charger from Aliexpress" for the full set, instead of bothering with bulky laptop-quality chargers of the type this deal was about.

            I've got plenty of cheap Aliexpress USB cables kicking around. Totally happy to charge my ebook readers or cheap slow charging phones with them. I just don't feel like using one to pump enough power through hair thin copper wires to power an old school incandescent light bulb.

      If in doubt, use double-sized 3M tape or cable ties to stick the brick to the underside of the standing desk/frame. That's what I do (with powerboards + chargers on the underside of the desk), makes everything nice and tidy, and only one mains power cord going from wall to desk.

      • +1

        fellow cable-management bro I like it

      • +1

        If you occasionally need to remove it, adhesive velcro can be used to hold it in place

      • +2

        I’ve found Velcro tape the best for this as allows quick removal / replacement, especially if you move between places. Also handy as a bit of protection if something gets pulled too hard as it twists or comes off (forgetting to unplug laptop from charger and walking with it….). Worth paying for the good brands who are confident enough to put a rating on the packaging though. Just put the soft / fluffy side on the divide so it isnt scratchy when moving it around.

  • Anyone know is it possible to get a school or education email address to join education stores.

    • +9

      Yes, go to school.

    • HP has removeable USB-C cable so can get longer or shorter or replace it it breaks.

  • Anyway to access education store?

  • Whats the benefit of this on Anker GaN65W ?

    • +2

      Not sure whether it is actually a benefit, but it has USB-C / PD cable integrated. With the Anker charger, you need to decide whether you get a branded cable or go el-cheapo one.

      At 65W, you want a proper e-marked USB-C cable. Another advantage is it is easier to change the 3 pong / clover power cable if you need to use it overseas. Not a fan of el cheapo plug converters.

    • Anker’s PPS (probably)

    • Anker might break the USB connection.

      Still lighter

    • Anker are a shifty company that don't deserve your money.
      Earlier this year it came out that they had been lying about how they were storing footage from their Eufy cameras. Instead of fixing it they lied, then they changed their documentation around privacy and data storage.

      • Is that the only thing they've done?

        It's pretty damn good going as far as corporates go- Lenovo (maker of the charger this thread is about) has done far, far worse regarding security flaws and actively installed malware on their laptops (the latter done repeatedly, over years).

        Seriously, if that Eufy thing is your sole complaint about Anker, it would not sway me. And bad behaviour from tech companies is a pet peeve of mine.

        • +2

          There were multiple issues with Eufy cameras: (1) videos supposed to be stored locally were accessible in the cloud (2) videos not encrypted (3) lack of security meant it was possible to use VLC Player to look at other people's videos.

          In terms of chargers. Based on teardown reviews, you can still tell there is cost saving measures done by Anker. While Anker does appear to try to ensure better safety compared to el cheapo ones, Anker doesn't go with using higher quality components like Apple and Samsung, but opt to go for "good enough" components and use insulation tapes for some of the safety measures. Each Anker product is different. Though compared to other cheap brand ones, Anker ones are certainly better. Also, we are starting to see Apple using more "cost effective" components on some of their USB-C chargers with lower wattage ratings.

          Anker got caught years ago on its USB-C 3.1/PD cables not being done correctly by Benson. Anker did rectify it in subsequent batches. The main issue is that if Benson didn't check and people didn't discover Eufy camera issues, would Anker still fix them? Anker does feel like a company that could still cut corners. Anker does know how to package the item to make it more polished, but it is still the item that's inside that counts. Don't get me wrong, while I stick with original chargers, if I must use third party chargers, I would consider Anker ones acceptable.

          • @netsurfer: I'm generally agreed on chargers, that's why I use laptop chargers to fast charge my phones.

            But the Eufy thing really doesn't bother me- I consider all internet connected, consumer-easy cameras to be untrustworthy. Which is why when I ran home cameras a while back, they were explicitly firewalled away from internet access, run by a third party NVR program, and accessed via VPN. They were Hikvision cameras, so I could trust them as far as I could throw them.

            And again, if that's the worst than Anker/Eufy have done… they're still a long way ahead of most other big name consumer tech companies I can think of, including Lenovo. And definitely Apple.

            • @rumblytangara: I am interested to know what Lenovo and Apple have done that's so bad. Anker not encrypting videos put them in the same class as basically el cheapo ones. Being able to access other people's videos is even worse.

              Also, just because Anker is a smaller company, that gives them the right to do dodgy stuff as long as they don't top the worst done by bigger companies?

              Less wrong doesn't make it right. While I wouldn't go as far as boycotting Anker products, I can understand why some people would boycott Anker. It's false advertising.

              Apple have done quite a lot of customer friendly stuff, but when Apple cables or chargers have issues, Apple would do a recall and replacement them. Anker did not recall USB-C cables which did not conform to USB-C standards.

              • +1

                @netsurfer: From your username, I'd thought maybe you're in tech and might follow this sort of stuff?

                Lenovo went through several years where they had installed MITM advertising malware on their products, to collect user information and inject a new set of ads into webpages. They did this… repeatedly, and the malware was baked into the OS and recovery images (might have even been problematic BIOS, I can't remember the details now). Fortunately, this never touched their business range of laptops, 'just' the consumer stuff. Google "Superfish." MITM is… close to worst case security vulnerability, it's the stuff of infosec nightmares, and Lenovo adopted it to make ad money.

                Apple. Wow. I know they present a great gleaming brand image, but they've got two decades of horrible anti-consumer practices where they make broken products and then deny everything. There were several gens of Macbooks where the white plastic casing went yellow very quickly from the oils in human skin, and the corporate response was deny that it ever happened (have a good friend who went through half a year of CS arguments over this). Or look up how they denied problems about, then fought for 5+ years, their fundamentally flawed butterfly switch keyboards, which only lasted maybe a single gen of machine then quietly disappeared. I stopped paying attention to Apple ages ago, there were so many similar incidents. Nicely built products, good privacy, but if anything was ever designed badly, it was deny, deny, deny. Then fight in court for years.

                Agreed that Anker/Eufy being dodgy with privacy and security is, well, bad. And other bigger companies acting badly doesn't excuse it. But it does seem a weird thing to latch onto- I am old fashioned and think that any camera connected to the internet is untrustworthy. And I'd say that the extremely popular Ring cameras are worse from a privacy and corporate responsibility perspective, yet people don't get up in arms about those.

                • @rumblytangara: There is a bit of double standards. If malware is not okay for you, then getting your home monitoring videos uploaded to cloud without your permission and leave the security of those videos wide open are certainly not okay. In fact, those Eufy issues were worse than MITM attacks (because you don't even need to attack, they are wide open). They were basically sent straight to the mothership and done completely unprotected during the transmission via the Internet. Anyone can just sniff the data and get the contents. Anker/Eufy couldn't be bothered to even pretend to lock it / encrypt it and then use MITM based approach to get it. Anker/Eufy basically saved cost to completely ignore customer privacy.

                  If Anker/Eufy is deemed not as bad, then it is like saying it is fine for anyone to access your data completely unencrypted, but it is far worse if Lenovo encrypted it but left a backdoor for themselves to analyse your data. Both are bad, but the formal is clearly worse. Anker positioned themselves above el cheapo branded products, but this keeping everything unencrypted is el cheapo product grade service.

                  Yes, Apple tends to go it's Apple's way or the highway. Apple is paying the price for butterfly keyboards. You think changing it back is more about its flaw? It's more about the company's bottom line.

                  The difference is this: for Anker based products, I need to check / validate them because they can cheap out and stuff up e-marking for example. The approach to their chargers can be that you cannot really fault them for not doing enough for electrical safety, but the way some of those are done feel cheap.

                  • @netsurfer: I wouldn't call that double standards. There's zero security risk to my useless home footage because it shows things that nobody is interested in or can profit from. Who's going to want to watch goldfish? (This is pretty much what I'd personally use an internet facing camera for)

                    • @rumblytangara: And it is very objective to assume everyone buying Eufy cameras uses them to monitor goldfish?

                      There is no way the company I work for would allow me to develop a solution like what Eufy did. Leave everything wide open and unencrypted. Security audit team would raise a major red flag and prohibit me from releasing it. It's unthinkable and unethical.

                      • @netsurfer:

                        1. I'm not sure how many times I've already mentioned in this conversation that I already regard all internet-facing cameras as compromised.

                        2. MITM is far, far more serious than random security footage that someone finds from the other side of the world via shodan. This wasn't just poor and sloppy security practices, this was deliberate intent to make money by building in network vulnerabilities.
