Prong replied to lachhelix on 10% off Apple Mac (MacBook Air 13" with M3 Chip, 10-Core GPU, 512GB/16GB $2159, Was $2399) + Delivery (C&C/ in-Store) @ JB Hi-Fi
Interestingly I switched my workflow to a MacBook after a very long time on Windows. The Apple hardware is nice but MacOS is super buggy.…
Prong replied to ozvictor on Ozito PXC 36V (2x 18V) Brushless Chainsaw (Skin Only) $138 + Delivery ($0 C&C/ In-Store/ OnePass) @ Bunnings
If you email them, they should organise a courier pickup of the battery. I have had similar where they sent the wrong thing, and they…
Prong replied to lgacb08 on Ozito PXC 36V (2x 18V) Brushless Chainsaw (Skin Only) $138 + Delivery ($0 C&C/ In-Store/ OnePass) @ Bunnings
To expand on that, drill batteries often use different cell sizes, or the same size but different rated outputs. For example, the Ozito PXC…
Prong replied to dwbr on Kings 12Ah LifePO4 60W USB-C Portable Power Pack $109 + $10 delivery @ 4WD Supacentre eBay
12.8V 12Ah = 153.6Wh It is over 99Wh so it can't be taken on without airline permission. It is under 160Wh so can be taken on with airline…
Prong replied to mar1in on Ozito PXC 18V Brushless Reciprocating Saw or Multi Function Tool - Skin $44 Each + Delivery ($0 C&C/in-Store/OnePass) @ Bunnings
Yeah I'd definitely wait till they stop price matching and you can confirm they have stock. Also when I've been sent the wrong item by…
Prong replied to Cleremy on Ozito PXC 18V Brushless Reciprocating Saw or Multi Function Tool - Skin $44 Each + Delivery ($0 C&C/in-Store/OnePass) @ Bunnings
Ozito batteries are great value compared to the alternatives. What structural issues have you had?

ZMI No.20 2.5W (5V 0.5A) test. 65.04 Wh (73.16%) Anker 737 2.5W (5V 0.5A) test: 61.93Wh (71.68%) Not an unexpected result, as the voltage…
Prong replied to RichardL on Ozito PXC 18V Brushless Reciprocating Saw or Multi Function Tool - Skin $44 Each + Delivery ($0 C&C/in-Store/OnePass) @ Bunnings
Yeah - I was just referring to the "Multi-Function Tool was $119(pricehipster.com)"
Prong replied to RichardL on Ozito PXC 18V Brushless Reciprocating Saw or Multi Function Tool - Skin $44 Each + Delivery ($0 C&C/in-Store/OnePass) @ Bunnings
Multifunction shows up as $149 for me (in the still cached Bunnings search page).
Prong replied to fruitloafer on Ozito PXC 18V 2.5Ah Battery and Charger Kit $24.98 + Delivery ($0 C&C/ in-Store/ OnePass) @ Bunnings
Hmmmm now I am thinking about a DIY adapter to turn 2x 2.5Ah batteries into one 5Ah. I believe the 5.2Ah uses the same 20650 IXR21/66…
Prong replied to HappyBargainer on Anker 737 Power Bank (PowerCore 24K) Gen 2 140W A1289 $143.57 Delivered @ Wireless 1 eBay
I have my 737 on my desk, so will keep hitting the power button and then letting it auto sleep just in case I can replicate it with enough…
Tough call. But for me, the ZMI No.20. Mostly because I use pass through charging a reasonable amount. And the ZMI slots into my laptop bag…
I wish I knew! The INIU power banks I have tested so far have been ones I bought myself on the various super cheap deals here on OzBargain.…
Impressive! But yeah even the lightest large capacity power banks are quite heavy in a pocket or bag.
Prong replied to PeppaPigDidNthngWrng on Anker 737 Power Bank (PowerCore 24K) 140W $149.49 Delivered @ Anker
The nominal voltage for the cells is set by the manufacturer, rather than being an exact reflection of the cell chemistry. Most 3.7V cells…
Not that I have seen. It is presumably at the worst efficiency output, or potentially all outputs combined. There's no specific standard so…
Which specific Legion model do you have? And you are using the INIU B62? As it happens I also do laptop testing for TechRadar, and I been…
Prong replied to HappyBargainer on Anker 737 Power Bank (PowerCore 24K) Gen 2 140W A1289 $143.57 Delivered @ Wireless 1 eBay
Yeah ok. I have not been able to find any combination of modes etc that will cause mine to stay on. Hopefully if it is a bug that causes it…
Not that it matters real world, but out of interest, my ZMI won't sustain 200W output for the full capacity. (2x 20V 5A from USB-C 1 and…
^ Me every time I travel.
What was your specific test setup? I will (try to) replicate it to avoid any differences in testing. For example, the USB-A port uses a…
In a very limited way. It will pass through up to 90W, but won't charge itself while in pass through mode. And does not do UPS mode.
Anker give a usable capacity rating on the power bank itself, but are terrible at actually making the specs easily available online! At 5V…

I am now! (for Australia) I have actually done freelance work for TechRadar for many years. But I recently joined the team full time.
Prong replied to Duckie2hh on INIU BI-B62 65W 20000mAh Power Bank $29.74 Delivered @ INIU via Amazon AU
No, not yet but they are on my list. They are expensive / harder to buy in Australia. Do you have a specific model you are interested in? I…
An excellent power bank that is quite efficient. Having a screen that gives wattages, plus other info like total Wh in and out is very…

The INIU B6 is a great option. https://www.techradar.com/au/news/top-portable-chargers#section-the-best-budget-power-bank Cheap ($26 right…
Prong replied to ocular on INIU BI-B62 65W 20000mAh Power Bank $29.74 Delivered @ INIU via Amazon AU
Yeah nice - I will replicate your exact test and see what I get. With limited time and many power banks, I only test a subset of all…
Prong replied to ocular on INIU BI-B62 65W 20000mAh Power Bank $29.74 Delivered @ INIU via Amazon AU
Out of interest, what's your testing setup? I have the 65W B63 but mine is great - over 90% of the rated capacity in most tests. That's…
Prong replied to ocular on INIU BI-B62 65W 20000mAh Power Bank $29.74 Delivered @ INIU via Amazon AU
In short, it's because lithium ion batteries don't have a consistent nominal voltage.. In this case the listed Wh and mAh are from the…
