Out of interest I gave a YouTube video a half hour test and it averaged about 10W full system power use on the integrated GPU. Whereas 290…

It can definitely sustain the advertised 175W total power use, so the results are decent. But it does get very noisy running flat out.…

Ahhh interesting. During that test was the m16 R2 using Intel Arc graphics or the RTX 4070?

I have since tested a newer version of the Veektomx power bank and it's significantly improved. Still below average (especially if fast…

I'll double check the measurements. But in general this VRURC isn't great. I get about 76% rated capacity at 20W, which is well below…

It's not as small as it looks and is 2.4cm thick. It's about the same volume to capacity ratio as other power banks. Power bank mAh is…

After a bit more testing, IMO the m16 R2 really stands out in the gaming / portable workstation crossover market it's targeted at. It's one…

Gaming laptop? Nothing that I can announce ahead of time. I expect some of the best EOFY deals won't surface till at least next week. I'll…

I can check - what sort of products are you thinking of in a WFH deal?

It definitely shows up as the RTX 4060 for me on the link from the deal I posted about it. And lets me add it to the cart. However when I…

Yeah the 4080 m16 was a great deal for anyone who grabbed one before it sold out!

Yeah Dell used to have some epic sales. But after they got fined by the ACCC for misleading sales pricing, they have been super careful and…

The Alienware m16 R2 RTX 4070 is currently a surprisingly decent $2,698.30 from Dell, but if you generate a [TechRadar 7% Dell coupon…

While the listing is not well written, in the images it does show the specific outputs of each USB port - including the 20V, 2.25A (45W)…

Yep, which is big enough to provide the 100W as claimed. The cells are probably not amazing but it's relatively cheap for a 100W folding…

This one? >From 5% it went to zero in enclosed woods after 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. on a cloudy but very sunny day , so basically it CAN drain the…

Main thing for me is when using a charger with a USB-C dock, hub, or device doing pass through. If the charger cuts power when it…

Yeah 2.4cm thick compared to the 1.5cm of the other 10,000 mAh from INIU (the B6) makes a big difference to how easily it goes into a bag…

No, 5V only so no PD fast charging.

Yep. The INIU B6 gives 85% of the rated capacity, which is a good result. It's one of the best cheap 10,000 mAh power banks available IMO.

I tested this. 66% of rated capacity at 9V 20W. Based on the Wh needed for charging it, I suspect it does not have 10,000 mAh worth of…

I tested this power bank and get about 62% of rated capacity. Which is well below expected. A decent 10,000 mAh power bank will give 80%+…

Depends on the laptop. It needs to be a laptop that supports PD charge voltages of 12V or lower. Even then, a 10,000 mAh power bank will…

The LOQ is a very nice laptop but this particular variant has the lesser 45% NTSC display. The 100% sRGB display on the G15 is worth it…

I haven't seen a review of this specific variant. But Notebookcheck gets 7 hours of video playback from the less efficient i7 and 4060…

The Dell G15 IMO. The display is 100% sRGB, vs 45% NTSC for the LOQ. The Dell also has a much bigger battery. But the LOQ has that sweet…

Fixed, thanks! (I have been staring at a gazillion Dell laptops all day so I am going to just claim my brain is fried this afternoon).

To get the discount you need to generate a [TechRadar 7% Dell coupon code](https://www.techradar.com/au/coupons/dell) and apply it at…

As others have said, this does work with other bands aside from Apple, if you have a magsafe case or align it correctly. I tested with a…

Yes, but only at up to 15W (5V, 3A). So in via USB-C, out via USB-A.
