  • Good for the Nintendo Switch?

    • +1

      Specs wise, it should work well - should charge the Switch at max rate, and even power the dock (if you needed to power a dock without access to mains, for whatever reason)

      Can't comment on build quality or anything, but the capacity and output is great for the price.

  • Does anyone know if this is any good?

    • I have the previous model (Type A & C, QC3 and 10,000 mAh) and it's been rock solid for about 2 years now. My father in law has one too and loves it.

      I'd have no hesitation in buying this new model, but honestly the old one is doing just fine right now and I don't need this at all. And my laptop requires at least 130W so the PD capability is not much use to me, apart from super-fast phone charges.

    • I reckon it's good but I've only used it twice, once to test it at home, and it charged my laptop reasonably quickly, a Dell XPS 15" 9570 2018, many laptops with USB-C charging support require the charger/powerbank to put out a minimum 45W such as my Dell laptop and several HP laptops and no doubt many other brands, this charger puts out a maximum of 60W (20V=3A). It charged my Google Pixel 3XL super fast also, but this charger is way too big and heavy just to charge a phone 6+ times. It's a great charger but it's overkill to use it just for a phone, but if you have a laptop that requires a minimum of 45W like mine you'll be very happy carrying the 600g weight (plus cables,case etc) around. It looks and feels like it's a good quality build. Also the "Kogan" logo is quite small and mixed in with the specs so it looks largely unbranded.

    I bought this charger a few weeks ago to support my Dell XPS 9570 2018 model and yes it does work.
    You will get a message pop up saying that this charger will charge slowly but it will in fact charge at a rate of 1% every 2 minutes, not super fast but adequate, this was while I was using the laptop so should be faster when the laptop is off.

    • +1

      Great info, especially as I have the same laptop! :)

      How long does it take to charge when turned off from 0-100%? Approximately?

  • Just bought a new hp spectre x360. Prior late 2017 model (or early 2018 ,back when their was only plain ash grey colour), just wondering but how do i work out if it wil charge off this 60w PD?? Given a commenter above mentioned their laptop was 120w PD?? I assume in thid latter case it just wont charge as watts is too low?

    • +1

      The laptop type shouldn't really matter as long as the laptop supports PD over USB-C and the power provided is at the correct voltage.
      In this case 20v 3A should be enough to slowly charge most PD laptops. I've tested 20V 3A with Dell and Lenovo and they both work fine.
      Btw, max wattage over PD2.0/3.0 is 100W.

      • USB PD is not as universal as you thought. Read the following article

        Universal USB-C charging: How the dream is coming true

        • Thanks for the read. Upon their re-test it looks like it was only the Yoga 910 charger that didn't work universally (at least to some degree). From the article "Universal USB-C charging is pretty much a reality today, finally."

    Do they make you stow this in checked luggage if flying with it?

    Edit Found the official answer Looks like all allowable battery sizes are for carry-on luggage only.

    • Max 20000mAh, I once bought a 60000 one to jump start my dad's car in KL but there was no way for me to get it on the plane so I had to sell it lol >_>

      • +2

        Max 20000mAh

        This is incorrect. The limit is expressed in Wh (not mAh) - usually 100Wh.

        Most powerbanks use cells that are rated at 3.7V or so, which means the limit is roughly 27,000mAh (at 3.7V) - BUT it depends on the voltage it has been rated at.

        In practice, powerbanks that are 26,800mAh (like the kogan) is the maximum you can go. (But you have to check the Wh rating, or calculate it from the mAh and V)

        • oops, ok must be in my head that I can only take 20,000 as my powerbanks are 10, 10 , 20 ><

    • +4

      According to the manual, its 96.5Wh so it should be fine.

  • Great, thanks!

  • +1

    These are great quality and well designed. Just want to throw out that the rated capacity is around 30% lower than the advertised battery capacity if you're using one of the higher output voltages e.g. charging your laptop.

    • +1

      It should be lower anyway the more you step up the voltage - it's still a 3.7v power source

  • This is as big as a brick.. bulky as

  • How does this compare to the anker powercore+ 26800?

    Good charger, but doesn’t output 60W for that long before stepping down as it drains. My other notes:

    Kogan 26800mAh 60W USB-PD battery
    - Only supports QC (>5V output) when one usb port is in use at a time
    - Supports total output of 18W via USB-A ports.
    - Supports USB-PD protocol charging via USB type-C port, up to 30W (20V, 1.5A)
    - Supports pass-through charging with boost e.g. 5V (12W) input, QC3.0 output of 9V (18W)
    - Does not support QC protocol input via USB type-C port (only 5V charging up to 12W, unless using USB-PD protocol)
    - Hold down the button to change charging direction - if connected to a supported device (e.g laptop).
    - Lights do not flash during charging if close to full.
    - If a device is using QC on one port, and it is unplugged, and then plugged into the other USB type-A socket, QC will be disabled on both ports. QC will not be enabled again until all ports are unplugged for a full 60 seconds. Until this happens, both ports are limited to 5V 2A (10W).
