The main reason I got this charger is because I am trying to get rid of usb A ports. I have 5 devices that charge via usb C and one that needs at least 45W PPS, so this really did the trick. It might not be perfect in every area but having 4 usb C ports and a relatively small size does put it ahead of many multi-port chargers if you mainly care for usb C, especially if you live in Europe where the Anker 747 is not available. I was also lucky finding it discounted at 80 dollars. I'm glad I didn't make a bad purchase, thanks for another great video. By the way it doesn't just support Samsung's super fast charging (25W), it also supports their super fast charging 2.0 (45W)

@AllThingsOnePlace Жыл бұрын
So, the Satechi is limited to 100 watts on one port but so is the Thunderbolt 4 port. So, it would get the 100 watts it expects. The only laptop I know of that uses the 140W capability is the mac book pro, which this adapter doesn't support on one port. In terms of power banks, the Anker 737 power bank will drain itself dead before it overheats, the Baseus 100W power bank will do the same. I think everything else I have tested doesn't have the power capability or overheats.

Don’t know if in multiport operation the power distribution has a forced hierarchy from PD1 to PD4, It would be convenient if it would handle any combination at any port. Eg PD 1 - 30W, PD4 100W (Could you please check and confirm?) Also thanks for this review!! That seemed quite a journey from “thinking it might be the worst” to “this is my daily driver” 😂. Well I’ll be buying one today!
@AllThingsOnePlace Жыл бұрын
haha, yes, my story writing needs some work, I tried to create some conflict, it's a power adapter review, then resolve it. I checked and I can get 100W from any port to start. The PD4 port does seem to have less capability by design so if you plug in anything else and 4 is at 100W it resets so it does look like it has some priority from 1 to 4 with 1 being the highest wattage and 4 being the lowest.

I am truly amazed that this power adapter, totally beat out the Baseus! Chart topper you aint kidding! Looks like Baseus finally has some competition now. But hmm, cough, Satechi really needs to sort out the idle problem. If it were a gasoline engine, I'd think she had a bit of a misfire during idle. LOL Also, 165 watts, thats gotta be enough power to charge up thin and light notebooks and power them at the same time. Your new daily driver, well, I'll be damned, never thought I'd see the day. HAHA
@AllThingsOnePlace Жыл бұрын
It is very rare to get one to switch to. This is about 0.1 watts more idle than the Baseus I am using (idle increase is pennies per year and it is on a switch anyway), and it is more efficient and cleaner, better voltage specifications. Satechi did something good here, they're charging the premium price for it too.

Which of the 3 would you recommend as the best option and best value for money?

Never had a device not be charged or restart or anything weird during use, laptop, camaras, phones, and watch all get charged regularly. The 747 is a good charger too though I prefer the style of the Satechi. The only downside I've heard in comments, some of these make a bit of noise though (coil whine), mine is on the floor and I can't hear it at all but if you put it on the desk next to you in a VERY quiet environment you might hear it.

@@itsmnaveedsheikh Eventually opted for the Satechi 165W charger as I'd spent the most time looking into Satechi products above all others to not fall in love with it, plus it tied in with the general aesthetics of my setup. So far, it's been great with no issues whatsoever. I can't say I've heard any coil whine as I mostly work with music playing over headphones or speakers which pretty much drowns out every other sound in the room. However, I doubt if I'd be bothered by coil whine if ever there was such as I assume it would be a low droning sound that one would have to really be listening for to be aware of. It would take a really loud and clearly audible whine to freak me out and so far, that hasn't been the case. On the other hand, I would suppose that Anker chargers are good as well since they tend to get a lot of coverage and endorsement with a lot of youtubers but then again most of these endorsements are due to sponsorships of those channels from Anker and for this reason I tend to be a bit skeptical, preferring to go with the "underdog" products.

@AllThingsOnePlace Жыл бұрын
It is marketing non-sense. There is no such thing as GaN2, 3, 4, 5, squared, etc. GaN is a semiconductor technology that has been around for a long time. It has more recently been able to handle higher voltages (around 650 now) and is less lossy than conventional MOSFET's if used correctly. Often the PFC circuit still uses a conventional MOSFET or a SiC mosfet/diode. The higher GaN numbers are sometimes used to indicate the USB output technology instead which has nothing to do with having a GaN switching chip. There are iterations of GaN like GaNSense which is Navitas branding for 'it builds the current sense into the chip', the GaN part is still essentially the same.

@@AllThingsOnePlace thank you for this explanation. Please make a video explaning and showing why Gan1-2-3-etc is marketing and no difference in the chargers, it would be a controversial video I think and get a lot of views and debate going. I was reading that GaN 2 is 20% more efficient (& less loss of power to heat). if this is not true, if you could show it in a video it would help a lot that a cheaper older GaN charger is the same efficiency as newer "GaN II" labeled one and not worth buying. thanks
@AllThingsOnePlace Жыл бұрын
@@nidusa1 If you have any references (preferably text) send them over. It isn't that there haven't been improvements in the technology. One example is I have an IEEE article explaining it isn't the GaN it's the stuff around the GaN that is making that difference (it was a sponsored piece though so not peer reviewed or anything). If anything my videos have shown that lower GaN numbered chargers are more efficient, ha. A lot of manufacturers keep making the adapters smaller and sacrificing in other areas hurting the performance, even if the GaN chip is better they ruin by cheapening up elsewhere in the product.

I bought this during the Prime Day sale but ended up returning it. It will not charge the only 2 100W devices I have, a Dell XPS 15 laptop, and an EGO PAD5000 inverter. Didn't matter which cable (100W capable or otherwise), it simply refused to charge at all. Using a cable w/ built-in watt meter it would briefly display "0W", cut off, and repeat over and over again, like it was having trouble negotiating. I requested a replacement but it had the exact same problem. Apparently it's a universal issue with these, there are similar reports on Reddit with it not being able to charge a certain HP Elitebook laptop, Framework laptop, and an Anker power bank. Oh well. I ordered a second Baseus 100W instead, I've had no problems with the original one I've been using daily for over a year now. EDIT: I posted a video of it happening in my Amazon review.

Thanks! Yeah, I use a USB C to Barrel adapter with my HP laptop, works flawlessly with this adapter, this laptop literally only charges from a HP or Dell branded USB adapter. I want to explore the Dell protocol more, I have the Dell USB adapter that doesn't do normal USB negotiation to check out, time is the issue on that. Satechi does claim this is really made for apple devices and from what I can tell in the Dell and HP manuals I've looked at they don't actually state anywhere that it supports USB PD and to only use branded adapters from the OEM. Lenovo also doesn't like 3rd party adapters. It is too bad the Satechi isn't more broadly compatible because it's a great power supply but they are just not allowing it to connect to some devices or it has a limited implementation of USB C PD, it's probably like one bit not being flipped or something but that makes it not work with a lot of devices. It has issues with some Anker power banks too. When your power adapter needs a firmware update...

I don't think it will do that on both ports. It will probably be 45w and 25w with the Baseus. I don't understand the charge times measured for those devices. 1 hour with a 45 watt charger is 45 Wh, it's an 18 Wh battery. So, it'd be close with inefficiencies but a 25 watt charger should be able to do that job in one hour. Something doesn't add up. Anyway, I wouldn't count on the Baseus doing 2 x 45w in PPS mode.

Also, I've heard some others have issues with that, on my daily use on 120V, I've never heard a peep. I haven't done nearly as much testing on the higher voltage. I could see the PFC circuit going on and off at low power levels causing some noise.

The order of the ports matters on this device. The highest power device has to be in port 1. My laptop does this if I put it into port 2 through 4. But in port 1, it's fine.

I have MBP 16 M1, iPhone 15 Pro Max and a power bank. I want to charge all of them with one charger and cable. Do you recommend this product for my setup? Does Satechi 145W charger fit my need?
@AllThingsOnePlace 4 ай бұрын
This should work fine to charge those devices. The 165 will top out at 100w to the MBP, the iphone will take 27 watts or watt-ever it can, then the 3rd and 4th ports will be lower wattage deliver so the power bank will charge a bit slower but depending on what that power bank is it may be plenty still. The port order matters on this charger. So port 1 has to be the laptop. I use mine with laptop, phone, watch, camera battery charger.

There is a drop down box when you click on the product, you will notice two original tests, the 160 is the 230V test which took the default spot, and the 120V other test gets put in on the side. This is a known issue, working on a solution to multiple datasets on the same device.

I have a question. I am looking for a charger that can supply minimum 135w though one USB-C port, but as 20V 6.75A, not 28V. This is so I can use it for my Lenovo Legion Slim 7i, which only accepts 20v charge though the USB-C port, but will accept up to 135w, but as most chargers are limited to 20V 5A I will only get 100w change on the Lenovo with those chargers. Is there such an USB-C charger? (I am not looking for a charger that has a fixed usb cable, basically a standard Laptop charger, Dell makes one.)
@AllThingsOnePlace Жыл бұрын
Yeah, you basically have to go with an OEM charger. The issue is the USB C port is really not designed to handle more than 5 amps. I mean the pins are tiny so every extra amp you put in you lose watts anyway. Manufacturers have had two years to catch up but obviously they aren't interested and still continue to push non-standard charging protocols, except apple of all companies for laptops at least... You would have to make an adapter to pull 140W from an EPR PD 3.1 compatible charger and drop the voltage down to be compatible. You would lose PD compatibility so the end would need to be terminated as a barrel plug or the rectangle thing not USB C (which would be unreasonably dangerous since it would always be 20V).

Charge, probably, Dell is real weird so you may need an adapter to make this work. The power adapter is only 100 watts on one port and some power hungry machines need that extra wattage to go so will actually discharge the battery to maintain performance if there isn’t enough at the power socket. A barrel adapter may also cause overload if it expects 180w power adapter on the barrel plug but there’s only 100 behind the curtain. See everything is compatible with usb c…. Nope. If the laptop is rated for 65w nominal then this will handle that no problem. Me, I end up having to use a barrel adapter on mine since the usb c says this isn’t a Dell power brick and won’t use it.

I have a Minisforum HM90 which runs flawlessly using a SlimQ 150 this is supposed to be 165... It will not deliver a 19v DC current with enough wattage to even start the HM90. This is using only one USB C to C cable to the HM90, so it is totally worthless!!! To me. It may be efficient for what can do, but it cannot do what I expected it to do after watching your review. So if you can enlighten me as to why the SlimQ works and This Piece of Crap doesn't Chime Right In!!! It does not put SlimQ to shame.

It is expensive but can full power the MBP, and then charge many other devices at pretty high rates without failing. The 165W doesn't sound like a bad option either as long as you don't need to plug in more than 4 at once.
