    My favourite review:

    "Didn't last as long as expected, melted in the 12v socket. Worked fine up until then though"

    It’s ok my car has fire & theft coverage

    • Reminds me of this expression I learnt from Disney+ https://twitter.com/AJCGlobal/status/1682082158146363396

    • my car has fire & theft coverage

      I wouldn't relay too much on these scam insurance companies so I would carefully check your insurance policy.
      What you'll declare, the aftermarket car charger burned the car???
      I've been waiting the AFCA to deal with my complaint about car insurance, they told me that unfortunately they are receiving way too many complaints about insurance companies that aren't able (not willing) to deal with claims!

    Finally! Something that plugs into the lighter socket, and can actually light cigarettes.

  • these comments are getting me worried about my house one plugged in next to me lol. well if i randomly disappear i guess you know what happened

  • 90W? That’s about 8A with some inefficiency added. 😮 I’m not sure the wiring in most cars is rated to that. At least old ones.

    • Old cars had ash trays and a 'Lighter Socket' which came with a push-in gadget that heats up red hot so people could light cigarettes. Some have 15A or 20A fuses and the sockets are designed to hold the red-hot resistive element while it cools down.

      I'd be more concerned about newer cars with '12V Accessory Sockets'.

  • Heymix wanted burn down all your assets.

    • Asset diversification

  • coupons are gone so people are buying ….i’ve had no problems with my heymix chargers.

  • Can confirm that these eventually fail after approximately 1 year and melt in the socket. Pay a bit extra and buy one from a more reputable brand.

    Cactus here, I sometimes dabble with heymix stuff, and I'm really impressed by these units.

    These are great little units for the price that you are paying especially with the prime delivery shipping speeds and they work amazingly well in doing the job just fine of committing insurance fraud with your car. If you ever wanted to destroy some of the electronics in your car, and cause a fire as naturally and holistically as possible then you're at the right product for you. After all with such large numbers of the population having being fooled by these bargain chargers, the insurance claims team won't know any better either!

    I wish I kept the photos of the inside PCB for these because you wouldn't need to have much knowledge to see what's funky in some of the heymix car chargers.

    • Zero safety features beside a fuse that was configured and wired improperly in my unit and not rated correctly (was set to over 5 times the amperage it should have been, did they run out of fuses in production?)
      -They basically had zero protection systems for the output side with the garbage PD controller they used so it was possible to pull up to 25.4v in 20v mode, without tripping over voltage.
    • Finnicky PD negotiation where I think some devices realized something was suspicious and would refuse to negotiate past 5v in a lot of situations without replugging repeatedly.
    • Insanely poor efficiency, I don't know how it's possible to waste so much power in a DC circuit but heymix truly push the envelope into cutting edge performance here doing what shouldn't be possible because the buck boost converters were barely pushing 70% efficiency on average.
    • The contacts and wiring running inside are a safety hazard, at high current/power they will heat up and reports of it melting are inline with what is expected with such build quality.

    As usual, please remember it's not a matter of IF most heymix products will fail and blow up your devices with it. It's a matter of when.

    All the jokes aside, I have personally had thousands of dollars worth of devices damaged by heymix, I've seen countless instances of people's chargers explode spewing plastic across the room and leave black burn marks in the area the size of tennis balls, countless instances of poor pcb and cheap components used with every corner possible cut in order to shave costs so that they can sell it at these prices.

    We were taught if things are too good to be true they probably aren't, why are we looking at these prices on heymix units and then other chargers and not thinking somethings wrong?

    No matter how much you save, you are paying for these units with more than just the money you spend purchasing them. WHEN you will have to pay the rest of the costs involved is a different matter.
