    Hey prong, do you know what the deal is with USB-C2 & USB-A sharing 20W when both are in use? (On both the 145W & 100W models, and the INIU one)

    20W shared is just a bit painful if you have more than one device needing a decent amount of power (eg. I often have laptop + Steam Deck/Switch + phone, all of which would want 25W+). I think i need to get an Anker or ZMI for that usage.

      The power banks have multiple voltage conversion circuits inside and select which ports they feed power to. Premium power banks have more complex circuitry so can better allocate the power when multiple ports are in use. The more complex circuity costs more, and takes up a bit more space, so isn't used as often. (There are also limitations in the total amount of power that can be drawn from the battery)

      But yeah in a 3 port setup it's relatively rare from what I have seen to share full power across the two USB-C ports, and keep a decent amount for the USB-A port. I am not sure offhand which models do that beyond the Anker 737 and ZMI No.20 do. IIRC the Baseus Blade Pro does too, but I will double check that. I don't think any of the Ugreen or INIU models do.

      I am gearing up for a big power bank guide update so will include that info going forward.

        Thanks for the clear answer - makes sense! Cheers.

    with passthrough charging

    does it mean I can charge it at the same time discharging (to charge my let's say iPhone/MacBook)?

    • EmployeeProng @ TechRadar on 30/08/2024 - 13:19
      +2

      Yep, however the output during passthrough charging is limited to a bit less than the input. So 60W or so when using pass through charging.

      That's not an issue though - 60W is plenty for charging an iPhone or Macbook.

      • dandandan on 30/08/2024 - 17:33

        Isn't it only 30W on passthrough, as the charger cable would be on the 100W input and the only outputs left when charging are the 30W C2 and 20W a port?

        • EmployeeProng @ TechRadar on 30/08/2024 - 18:40
          +2

          Ahhhh yes, correct! I was thinking of the 25,00mAh model where both USB_ ports are in/out.

          @theoscat As dandandan pointed out, I had the spec wrong – it's 30W pass through (5V3A, 9V3A, 12V2.5A). It will still charge your iPhone but the Macbook will depend on what USB PD voltage spec the Macbook is able to charge from. A Macbook Air M3 for example will charge from 12V or 9V, and at up to 30W, which is more than enough to charge it even when using it.

    There was a hack to get it cheaper last week by adding a few dollars item, like instant noodle.

    This or INIU 27000mAh - https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B0CB1FWNMK ??

      The INIU is great if you need the extra capacity. It's a lot bigger though.

      Both are good - it just depends on your needs.

  • Grok on 30/08/2024 - 13:42

    Why do 20,000mAh powerbanks cost so much across the board while 10,000mAh top quality ones cost as low as $11?

    Yes some have high power draw and more outputs standards but still, the disparity is vast.

    • littlesoldier on 30/08/2024 - 13:50

      its not 20000mAh that is costing more
      its the output power
      eg. this one is up to 100w (PD 20v 5a)
      higher power output involves much better control chipset, temperature control etc

      if you are just after a 20000mAh that can output 22.5w or below its way cheaper, some examples

      • Freddies on 30/08/2024 - 19:21

        Hi may I ask what are the advantages and possible disavantages of having higher power output?
        Thanks

        • littlesoldier on 30/08/2024 - 19:24
          +2

          some electronics requires higher output
          eg. laptops, nintendo switch

          besides, higher output means you can fast charge multiple devices at the same time
          eg. a 100w powerbank can usually fast charge 65w and 22.5w concurrently

          moreover, usually higher output powerbank usually also support higher input rate
          so you can faster charge the powerbank from 0 to 100%

          • Freddies on 30/08/2024 - 20:05

            @littlesoldier: Thanks, but what if my device can't receive a higher output? Will it be capped properly without damaging my device.

              +1

              @Freddies: Yes it would be capped, your device only draws as much power as it needs, and no more. So save your money and buy the cheaper model power bank (make sure you choose a reliable brand) that delivers the right amount of power that your devices need.

    What is better about the ugreen over the INIU which is cheaper with more capacity?

      I bet quality wise they are quite in par
      UGREEN is a more reputable brand (been selling accessories for years in China)

      while INIU are the ODM for many brands such as RAVPOWER and Anker

    • EmployeeProng @ TechRadar on 30/08/2024 - 17:22

      No pass through charging for the INIU.

      It's a great power bank too. It just depends on your needs.

      • jimmej on 30/08/2024 - 17:40

        Thanks

      • dandandan on 30/08/2024 - 17:46

        It says the Iniu it does have pass through charging. I have an the Inui B63 65W, which is the same but lower capacity and just tested pass through that works. I think the Inui you posted @littlesoldier is better than this Ugreen, as the C2 port is 45W vs 30W on the Ugreen, so should have higher pass through charging however is also 25,000mAh vs 20,000mAh.

        • dandandan on 30/08/2024 - 18:03

          C1+C2 can output 65W and 35W simultaneously apparently, so 110W out vs only 95W for the Ugreen so the Inui is better.

          Yep sorry I am off my game this afternoon. (And thank you!)
          I think I zoned out on the train home and mixed up which comment I was replying to…

          Prob the only thing I can see is that the 100W B63 lists Samsung SFC 2.0 support (so PPS up to 11V at ~4A or higher). Not sure if it does PPS to 21V (spec does not say) so not sure if it will do Pixel 9 Pro XL 37W charging. (won't matter to most people) I have the 65W B63 too, so can't check the 100W version PPS support myself.

          As far as I am aware, the Ugreen power bank uses 21700 cells, vs pouch cells in the INIU. With the 3 year INIU warranty I wouldn't be too worried but if planning to fully drain it frequently then the Ugreen will probably hold up better long term. I prefer the look and feel of the Ugreen, but the pouch cells in the INIU B63 mean it is similar size (slightly heavier) but higher capacity.
