I am looking for a fast charger for some USB devices.

Tick the $50 coupon box for $50 off the $139.99 price

With the $50 off this seems like a good deal relative to similar chargers.
The brand is not well known - Shenzen Ugoodbuy - I wouldn't say that is a plus, but Amazon customer service is.

This portable USB C charger 200W power, 5 independent ports (3USB-C and 2USB-A), USB C Desktop Charger for fast charging up to 5 devices at the same time, 3 USB C ports max power 100W, compatible with a wide range of electronic devices, support PD3.0, QC3.0, PPS, FCP,2.4A and etc

In single port use it will output 100w to USB-C and 65w to USB-A. Not clear what the outputs are when multiple ports are in use….

    • I didn't

      Had to put a date so put that one. If it expires earlier it will get reported and expired….

      As in all good deals, if you like it and want it, don't hesitate as it could be gone tomorrow….

      • You don't have to put a date

          WOW.

          I am not. If I was, why:
          a) would I say the brand is not a plus??
          b) would I not know the simultaneous multiport output???

      Looks like it's 29 Oct according to "Shop items" that takes me to this page.

        That's where I got the expiry date from, but OP thought otherwise.

        • It says the date can be seen in the checkout, but I can't see it. Clear's link is spot on - I learn something every day - shop items….

            @TheCandyMan2020: Where does it say you can see the date at checkout?

            I just clipped the coupon and there’s no mention that you can see when the coupon is expiring

            • @BargainsGrabber: If you click on "Terms" (next to Shop Items)

              Add the coupon to your shopping cart by clicking on the ‘Collect this coupon’ button. Each coupon is only valid for a limited time or while stocks last. Once you have collected a coupon, the date by which you must redeem it (the ‘Expiry Date’) will be displayed on the coupon. You will usually have until 23:59 on the Expiry Date to redeem the coupon. Quantities are limited and collected coupons may expire before the Expiry Date.

                @TheCandyMan2020:

                It says the date can be seen in the checkout

                I’m aware of that, but you said the end date is visible at checkout when the terms didn’t specify that it’s visible at checkout

                They’re referring to coupons that you have clipped, which you can find them under your coupons history

    200w charger from a no name company… would be careful of these catching on fire.

        Or catching on fire and damaging your devices.

        • Nah it's one or the other. Not allowed to have both. Says in the description.

      Yeah I keep seeing a lot of this sort of stuff come up and wonder whether they are actually bargains? Like they seem to be no brands and probably aren't officially certified for Australian use etc. Are they really bargains? Like you say there's no standards on circuitry probably so anything could happen to your devices.

      When I used to travel bit to China before Alibaba, Amazon etc e-commerce I always brought back some no-brand chinese equipment, but would NEVER mix and match it with my branded equipment. So I woulldn't use a no-brand charger with my Nokia phones for example.

      It was mainly stuff you don't mind replacing and you often would be every year or so - just fun gadgets you know aren't going to last.

      Now if Belkin or Targus came up with something for that price - I would qualify that as a bargain - just not sure this no-name stuff qualifies as a bargain? The "bargain" pages are getting longer to read every morning just not sure this stuff should technically be there.

      Just thoughts. As you were.

    How much fire should I expect from an unrated device from Ugoodbuy?

    Searching the model I found the output. Single & Dual Port and Three and Four Port

    So it can do dual 65W on 2 USB-C ports at the same time. Good for laptop charging for sure.

    It is very cheap, maybe too cheap, is this authentic ShenZhen Ugoodbuy Technology?

    Cactus here

    Not worth it. These are unable to sustain 200w, let alone even 100w after a while. Poor quality components and fairly old topology inside, corners cut wherever possible to just get it to work. There's horrible ripple, non existent power factor correction, the over current and voltage trip at points that are veering into problematic terroritory. Thermally they aren't designed great, there's no thermal considerations at all and it throttles in order to maintain temperature too quickly to be functional in my opinion (every charger throttles at 200w+, but this does so within minutes) . Efficiency varies wildly from 61% at lower wattages to 82% which isnt what you should be getting from GaN. Unfortunate because I have tested some stuff from these guys that did much better, but as usual the quality is all over the place.

    I don't recall the nitty gritties for the safety systems beyond what I've mentioned, I remember they weren't as egregious as heymix and many others, so I don't know if it's a safety hazard level of bad, but I remember I wasn't happy. If you want it to just work, then I think it will. If anyone's curious enough I can try dig it up and go back and check.

    If you want a good charger that can do it all at high wattages, the 300w GaN charger on aliexpress with international heads is probably the best charger you can buy in terms of size/performance/features and up until last week was the only 300w GaN Charger available anywhere, the 200w WOTOBE unit is fairly decent too.
    The UGREEN 200w nexode is pricey, but it is good if you want to buy it locally with warranty. The 300w nexode isn't perfect and has some issues with thermals too but they're built well enough I doubt anything would happen and if it did theres local warranty.

    https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005638258923.html? (search up 1005005638258923 if this doesn't work - also I don't know why this seller laser etches these silly things on their chargers as an option, theres one that doesn't have any of that and is default)

    I haven't finished testing the 300w yet, but they have been running strong for the past few months, the OLED has been extremely useful, and while it will throttle at 300w load, it will only do so after some time and for me I've finished charging the device by then (worth noting, every charger I've tested at 200w+ has throttled after a point, the goal therefore is when it throttles. Because if it's after 1-2hrs, that's manageable, not so much if it's in the first 30m)

    I know it's more expensive. But it's good to treat chargers like they are a long term investment, because that's what they are. You should be using these things for 5+ years just like a computer power supply, especially now that most of the commonly used standards are ratified and aren't going anywhere or likely to change.

      non existent power factor correction

      I'm wondering why you're concerned about that.

      Bad power factor is a problem for the electricity company, not for you. They have to install compensating capacitors at their substations. Home power meters are unaffected by power factor, AFAIK only industrial power users get penalized for having a non-unity power factor, so there is no reason for a domestic customer to worry about power factor.

      A charger will have a leading power factor, so if anything it will help the power company to cancel out the average lagging power factor of the electricity network. The reason the network lags on average is because the heaviest loads with a non-unity power factor are motors, and they have a lagging power factor.

    • @SmoothCactus do you have a recommendation for 100w or 140w ones for travel? (Preferably multiple USB-C and maybe 1 USB-A)

      • Yes, I would like to know as well. Travelling end of December was looking at a couple of these maybe:

        https://www.amazon.com.au/LENCENT-International-Adapter-Univ…

        But so worried about buying stuff that can damage my devices so I'm hesitating.

        We're on a cruise then, and we used to just take powerboards and original chargers but last cruise we did they confiscated the powerboards. The cruise lines NEVER have enough power sockets to charge our gear so I need something that can do 1 plug multiple devices AND be compatible with multiple plug formats.

        Any suggestions of tried and safe TRAVEL adapters wirh multiple USB-C ports and decent wattage I'm certainly all ears. Cost is not so much an issue for good gear.
