No worries mate. Thanks for sharing your work!

claims "10-protection" and "93% efficiency".

too many claims!!!

44

Iā€™m confused whether they actually include batteries - it does say ā€œBattery not includingā€, but also says ā€œBuilt in18650 batteries can be replaced ā€¦ā€, so I suspect they arenā€™t included, which makes it a little expensive, compared to, say, the Xiaomi powerbank.

I also love the ā€œPanasonic or Trustfire? Itā€™s your choiceā€. :wink:

Hi HKJ,

Did you already test a DROK usb meter?
Such as:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00S2HJAUE/

It seems to be very interesting on paper, thatā€™s why your expertise would be very appreciated :slight_smile:

I have not tested the DROK brand, but something similar:

47

Hmm, if they are similar they are not very accurate then :_(

48

They are fairly accurate, what do you expect better?

49

I may have misunderstood your tests, but I thought they were less accurate than this other one that you tested too:

50

It is about the same.

Look at the "Display U" column with current=0 and the "Display A" column when I test with different currents.

Voltage will not be very precise when current is flowing, it will be something between voltage at the input and the output.

The one with the lowest resistance will usual be the winner (That is a very important parameter on these meters).

4xAA emergency powerbank wiv flashright:

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00I0RA3XE (same one, in black)

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HCBHZV2 (seems to be from the same factory)

52

HKJ please test this Power Bank

53

+1

That one looks like the most advanced i have seen yet.
I hope it is a good one, 8x Sanyo 3500GA should be about as good match as anything out there i think to this powerbank.

54

Hi HKJ. Just saw this on GB and would like to have your review if possible :slight_smile: Even if the answer is a negative, I want to thank you once again for all the great work you do.

Has a Qualcomm name and logo in the illustration, but also another makerā€™s name in the description

I will accept Quick Charge suggestions now, I succeeded in making a box that can trigger it.

I have ordered this one, now but it will be some time before I get around to test it.
