    A 33W Anker isn't that impressive.

    Most laptops require more…

      Sure but this is definitely lighter than a 100W charger, and will absolutely excel for iPad or phone use and below.

    FYI, this is not a GAN charger - which is a good thing if you want uninterrupted power on either of the ports. (With a GAN charger, the ports will all stop momentarily whenever you plug something else in, to renegotiate charging. That makes (multi-port) GAN chargers bad for any device that needs uninterrupted power, like a baby camera or something.)

    If you want a portable phone charger, and don't need the second port, I'd highly recommend the Anker 511 (GAN charger, but single port anyway so re-negotiation isn't an issue) - it's tiny!

      why is it bad for a baby camera?

        My baby camera will fully reboot whenever it loses power - this takes quite a few minutes for it to restart and reconnect. So not ideal.

        But device that you don't want to lose power / connection, really.

                    I don't want power to be interrupted, so it does matter to me that power is not interrupted.

                    So what exactly is contradictory about that?

                    I completely understand the point you are making: that you don't believe it is important to have an uninterrupted connection to baby monitor. That's your opinion. Also completely irrelevant to my personal choices. Thanks!

    • powerhead on 29/04/2024 - 12:22

      I have this charger and it also interrupts power when plugging in/out of the second port

      • caprimulgus on 29/04/2024 - 12:24

        Both ways, or just the USB-C port?

        It makes sense for the USB-C port to be interrupted by plugging in a USB-A (if the power needs to be ramped down from 33W to 20W when shared), but it shouldn't interrupt the USB-A when plugging in a USB-C.

        • powerhead on 29/04/2024 - 13:15

          Pretty sure it’s both ways. I seem to recall both the laptop and the phone making the ding sounds when the other one is plugged in.

          • caprimulgus on 29/04/2024 - 14:23

            @powerhead: If you can be bothered, could you try plugging in USB-C while USB-A is already plugged in, and see if it's interrupted. Just to confirm.

            I was going to buy one just for that, but won't bother if it doesn't work as expected. Cheers.

              @caprimulgus: I checked mine, and USB-A is definitely interrupted when USB-C is connected.

              Both the USB-A or USB-C port can do up to 33W at 20V. And the USB-A port can do up to 22.5W (5V, 4.5A). So it renegotiates every time.

      GaN is just the material the transistors are made out of. (Instead of the usual silicon).

      It has nothing to do with power negotiation causing dropouts. Negotiation is caused by the charging protocol i.e. USB-PD

      So GaN makes no difference to what you're talking about.

      • caprimulgus on 29/04/2024 - 16:23

        Yep, you are correct that it is not GAN per se that is doing that. What I mean is that all GAN chargers do it (just because they are made that way, not because of the GAN, as you rightly point out).

        Not at USB-PD chargers do it. It seems that this one does, but i do have USB-PD capable charagers that have the USB-C PD circuitry seperate (and thus, dont do it).

          For anyone reading these comments, please note there is evidence of a GaN charger that can deliver uninterrupted power. Refer to my comment below.

    Does the usb-a port charge at 33w?

    • caprimulgus on 29/04/2024 - 12:06

      I believe the USB-A is capped at 12W.

    • waade395 on 29/04/2024 - 14:46

      Yes it does if nothing is plugged into the USB-C at the same time.

      If you use both ports then it's USB C 20w + USB A 12w.

      The other posters evidently haven't looked at the specs printed on the charger.

      • caprimulgus on 29/04/2024 - 16:28

        Yes, you are correct.

        I only looked at the marketing images, which had 12W max on the image (which I mistook for the actual max). My bad!

      Here's the image link from one of the item reviews:

      From pic it seems both ports individually can 33W. But together it is 20W (USB-C) and 12W (USB-A).
