Review request for HKJ [Chargers]

Any chance we see a test of this “professional” charger?

Probably not. After the one hour load test I would not be able to write anything for days :smiley:

In reality I would have to do some setup with a speed controlled motor to test it and start plotting power vs RPM. It could be fun, but it would take a lot of time and I would have to manufacturer some of the test equipment first.

Hi HKJ, would you also consider tearing down and analyzing the black box ac-dc adapters that usually come with these sort of chargers?

Usually not, I only do a high voltage test from mains to low volt side. The inside is made about the same way as usb chargers.

Aliexpress have a big sale, that means it is the right time to post review ideas for discounted stuff from them.

I did that charger some time ago: Review of Charger Ikea Storhogen 603.306.50

Keeppower L2 smart. I ordered it but not sure how good it is. https://www.gearbest.com/chargers/pp_286342.html

Thank you HKJ

Thanks, i’d see why i didn’t find the IKEA Storhögen - numbers are sorted as letters. So the 12 is between the 1 & two slot chargers.

Fixed.

How about some universal chargers like these:

i’ve just bought it, to me it serves very well, but i wonder how good it is

I do not review battery pack chargers, at least not at the current time.

I recently received an Allmaybe TC2 (aka XTAR ET1), but am still curious as to how it would perform under the rigors of an HKJ test.

As I noted in the other post, for some odd reason, XTAR doesn’t market an English version of this charger; they only do so under their lesser-known (unknown?) Allmaybe brand.

So it’s only available directly from their Aliexpress or eBay US. stores.

I can try to help persuade them to send a review unit, as I only discovered this model after contacting XTAR directly inquiring about the English version that I didn’t know existed at the time.

I am, of course, interested in reviewing that charger. Your post is the first I have heard about it.
Xtar has been nice about sending their new chargers to me for some time, but I have not been contacted about that model. You are welcome to ask them about sending me a copy for test.

I’d love to get this Xtar PB2 power bank reviewed as soon as it’s available (or if you can get it sooner):

Portable, 2 x 1A, removable 18650’s but in an enclosed case.

Thanks for the nice review. I saved your table of all the chargers you reviewed and for some reason, even though you reviewed it, the Keeppower L2 isn't in that link you provided with the table.

It is in the table now, I must have missed it when I created the table.
