Review request for HKJ [USB Power Devices]

I’m not a very big fan of those trimpots on DC converters. They might not work for very long. Some are rated for only 200 cycles, which comes up fast if you’re constantly adjusting the output.

Thanks for video pinpointing the difference maukka. I was already aware of, trimpots are easily replaceable with potentiometers. Now that I'm here let me suggest using logarithmic potentiometers for led brightness adjustments, as is the case with audio volume controls it'll result in a vastly improved accuracy.

Did you check these sites and use the in-browser search function (CTRL+F) ?

Yeah, I did, but compare with the search functionality to limited the condition/filter the guest want to see, the search functionality of web browser will not be the good one

Dear HKJ,
Do you mind to have a look on this device ?
https://enerprof.de/en/chargers/power-adapters-5v/433/enerpower-ep-10b-5v-2a-usb-black-10w?c=30

I tried to find Enpower USB 1 port 2A as your test but seem it was too old device so that could not find in the market, just can order enerpower-ep-10b-5v-2a-usb-black-10w now. Thank you

I've been looking for a DIY power bank case with some extra functionality and found an interesting device for the DIY crowd a while ago, an inexpensive power bank/mobile power supply box from (?) AILI, takes six cells in 3S2P arrangement:

Not yet interested in such a thing, at least not now, but thought I should share.

Seems a decent device but for it to work properly needless to say use good cells and preferably solder/spot weld the connections. Video:

And please, don't do like the following guy from this ad:

Hi HKJ,
could you have a look on this model (cheap but seem quite powerfull as I tested, output with current 1.03A) but not sure about its noise

I tried to contact with local DHL service to send it to EU area (you mentioned you are in Denmark) BUT the delivery cost is more than 12 times of the charger price, sorry, your living area is quite expensive so send smth like this charger :frowning:

Thanks

DHL is usually rather expensive to use, normal postal service is much cheaper. It might, of course, take a few month for it to arrive then.

HKJ : I just got this https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32814087598.html?spm=2114.12010612.8148356.8.5b615b95HbQGBo , all things are good but still have no idea about its noise. Could you set this in your test list in future ? thanks

Hello!

Just dropped by to say that I've found something interesting. It's an USB powered soldering iron, looks close to the one which once reviewer Dave from EEVblog tested:

But it evolved…

… into this new super cheap Aneng LT002 soldering iron!

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000650074912.html ≈€3.67/$4.01 shipping included there right now, crazy!

I bought the first version long ago, it's slick. :-)

Nitecore Ourdoor Power NPS-series (200/400/600Wh):
https://charger.nitecore.com/OUTDOORPOWER/NPS/
https://www.nitecore-shop.de/power-solutions.html

That looks very interesting, except when you see the price.
I would need some serious donations before getting that, but I would also need to make some test equipment that can test power at 230VAC (I am sort of thinking about doing that).
The problem with testing 120/230VAC devices is to have a load that can handle AC at 350VACpeak with constant resistance (Constant current is basically useless, a high peak current test may be interesting).

I do not test solar panels. I do not have that much sunshine and I cannot easily simulate it.

The price is way to high for me to buy for just a review.

[quote=angerdan]

Thanks, I will check them out when I am low on chargers to review.

At the current time my reviews are slowed down, because I am working on a project that requires a lot of time.

Yea, 180€ is some money. What about asking the shop for an copy to review?
.

All of them offers at least 2 ports with eather PD or QC.
I’d add some more very interesting chargers.
And created some table for the features:

.
.

Sounds interesting, will you publish the results?
Do you want to spoil some general details, like what general topic it is about?

I believe everyone here on BLF knows the value of your work.
It’s really helpful.

The project is already on BLF: Logging from meters
And on EEVBlog: Program that can log from many multimeters. - Page 1
