if I need to get another replacement Fuse that isn't provided, what do I google search for?
BS1362 fuse 10A
I see bluey
I see no one has patience 😂
To be fair 3 minutes is a long time on the Internet
But it was 2.
That's fair then.
Perfect for travel because it won't be your house that burns down
But still take out travel insurance so you can buy new clothes on your trip.
It's a travel adapter, so chances are you burn down a hotel or other place you are staying rather than your own.
100% agree….these are to be used away from home, preferably in another country….I would not use the Aust plugs on this…but the others appear acceptable to use in someone else's house.
Still, I don't think my brother would be impressed when I visit him in his uk
I hope you have travel insurance with high public liability cover.
Male sure you have travel insurance, I bought one last time, after using it for 15 minutes, the thing became very hot
post photo of purchase or didn't happen. GO.
TIL photo of hot charger looks different from a photo of a cool charger.
Read again. "photo of purchase"
I'll share below link for everyones convenience…
75W ≠ 65W.
can also be 2400w
Don't need this because the warmer weather is coming
Can anyone share these reports of burnt equipment? I’m using the Dual USB ones at home
Chinese whispers by the sound of it. No substance at all.
Have one used recently for a trip oversea can't fault it yet
Why would my house burn down?
Why wouldn't it?
It really depends on the charger. A few reasons:
- bad design (eg - lack of safety features which results in catastrophic failure with surges )
- use low quality components
- bad connection due to similar plugs for overseas markets that causes arcing
You might see in reviews for some chargers:
- Chargers with holes in their case
- Scorch marks on the case
- Reports of smoking
Yeah I get all that but why this one in particular?
OZ everyday marketing..
Hmmm ordered one for science. Will report back if package catches fire en route to me.
Are there any alternatives that have the same utility without fire risk? 😅
I think I'd rather one without a bad rep so I can trust it to last 😅
Lencent(?!)
I am using this Zyron one at home, rock solid. Not cheap though even with promo but should give you a peace of mind (check the comments): https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/798862
I have also preordered their 100W travel versions too and can't wait for them to arrive: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/796787
They also have a 67W travel version for $49.99 (preorder)You'd be best off picking up something that uses a figure 8 cable and buying the cable for the country that you're visiting
Ok first review
Charges quickly
Housing is of good quality
Heat from the pack was near non existent where in comparison I can fry an egg on my old MacBook charger
Pins are not insulated.
House did not burn down.
Wrong link bro
