wtf is inside tho??
Great and accurate review. Thank you.
I have the same, have had some swelling in the batteries. Curious if it could possibly be the cause. Have you been using it regularly and have you seen any swelling on the batteries used?
background music so anoying... i had to stop watching...
Does this turn the phone into wireless charging for non-factory phones?
This requires your phone to have wireless charging support. If it doesn't already, you can add it via a stick-on Qi receiver like this one: amzn.to/3Y2jB5A
Can I plug the USB C trigger cable directly to a desktop or laptop usb port to power it? Does it still require a usb brick if so this is pointless.
Depends on the power output capabilities of your PC's USB-C port, but in most cases, yes, you will need a USB-C power source. The advantage over the stock barrel jack wall warts is you can use multi-port USB-C chargers or batteries to power HDDs from the same power source as your PC. That reduces the extra hardware to just the HDD itself and the USB-C PD trigger cable.
altough the instuctions manual says that the base should be glued first, I have seen many installations without it and I wondered if I understood the instructions wrong Your video cleared my doubts, thanks for making it simple and straight to the point
Don’t buy this product Wyze is extortion Company
Brilliant review.
This is a rebranded Shelly plug. Period. I had 4 of them. Every single one of them died in less than a year. If you want reliable, but no monitoring, IKEA will last forever.
That is odd since Shelly is well known for reliability in Europe to the point where many companies depend on it for office and machine control. This would not be the case of Shelly would be unreliable. Maybe they had a bad series which they dumped on a foreign market under a different name, or perhaps it's not a Shelly after all.
Shelly had, indeed, a couple variants with some issues. I've been moving from Tuya-based devices to Shelly, so far I am very happy with them.
Mine have all been working great. You must abuse them. 😂
Great review. Thanks! One question... how responsive is the power management reporting? I ask becasue I have a Sonoff S31 plug and I tried flashing both ESPHome and Tasmota and it would take up to 5 minutes to reports power changes. I was wanting to use that to trigger my living room lights when the TV is turned on/off, but the response was too slow to be useful. When I used SmartThings with a SmartThings branded plug, that same function worked mostly instantaneously.
Great question! We just did some additional testing, and it's pretty quick to update the power draw figures - generally within 1-2 seconds of the change.
Work with ps5 ?
Used ones are good, as long as you’re near/through a station here in Cali.
It also works well enough with linux, at least on their mint os
can you not use the music . it is distracting. thx.
Mine stopped working after a galaxy update and now don't show up on any device
informative video, thank you! would you please make an update video from the same topic, because unfortunately these devices not available anymore.
I have this works great as a external on Xbox or PC would not use as boot drive.
EV Charger supplier
Hydrogen is $26 per "gallon". This vehicle takes 6 gallons. You figure out the math.
Where is it that much
I’ve seen 2019 examples for under 10k
there’s one for 3,000
Many EVs and Fuel Cells are dropping crazy in price nowadays
12V 5A isn’t part of the spec. There are very very limited chargers that allow 5A throughout the PDO’s 12V itself isn’t even part of the spec but almost all chargers include it. I think Apple is one of the few that doesn’t
Nobody's buying them. I just saw one on CarFax with 19,000 miles for $13,400.
you can get one for 3k now lol
hello. this unofficial DJi charger to charge the DJi Air 2S battery, over time using it together with the Power Bank to recharge the DJi Air 2S battery, did you notice if it damaged any battery cells? I ask because it's not an official DJi accessory to recharge the Air 2S battery. What is your assessment of this portable adapter for recharging the DJi Air 2S battery that you showed in the video ?
We've been using these USB-C charging adapters for well over a year now without unusual battery degradation or any other issues, and in our experience, they've been a great option for increased charging flexibility.
Is there one of those for the original dji mavic air?
What's an alternative to ScreenBeam Mini2?
In general, the Microsoft adapters are the best option. If you mean specifically for Miracast UIBC support, that's tougher now that ScreenBeam seems to have refocused on stationary conference room devices. A company called EZCast says their EZCast Ultra receiver supports Miracast UIBC (www-cdn.ezcast-pro.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/Miracast-UIBC-implemented-on-EZCast-Ultra-0822.pdf), but we have not reviewed their devices, so cannot confirm.
Does it work with Xbox one s
Yes and it will increase performance a lot. It will take a lot of the work off the internal HDD and you will notice a huge decrease in load times on games. The internal HDD is only SATA 2 and the usb ports on xbox support faster speeds than the sata HDD
Plus fee, man. no good now. I gave it up and turned to ImoLaza, no hidden fees, very good.
Nice video. One comment: I personally don't care very much as to whether or not the station display shows the charging rate in kW, since the car's display shows that. And ChargePoint is another very reliable network, although most of their fast chargers only provide 50 kW in my area (Maryland/DC).
Can I see this torn apart?
Just used it. Works but I had to wrestle with it to get the nozzle off the stem. I lost a bunch of air the first time and had to refill it. The guage is off quite a bit compared to my dashboard guage. The Slime guage shows about 5lbs more pressure compared to my dashboard readout and handheld tire pressure guage. However it does work. If I thought I'd be using it a lot I'd buy a pricier one honestly but I doubt I'll need it much. Still it's definitely handy for my riding lawn mower if nothing else.
Hello, is it possible to convert a notebook with DC jack to use USB-C Power Delivery? I'd like to use one only charger for both notebook and HDD box... thanks in advance.
Yes but it all depends on the notebooks input power. Look at the power adapter. Ideally you’d like to see 19.0-21.0V This should work fine with a 20V PD trigger so long as the current draw is 5A or less. Obviously you’d need the appropriate charger then
@@ericklein5097 I purchased a cable-adapter from A....it and it works fine with my notebook and a chinese PD compatible universal travel adapter, thanks. As I understand the plug specs I buy another cable-adapter for my external hard disk. Thanks.
@@Serkin76 Yep just match voltage.... On many notebooks (or at least I know this to be the case with Macbooks) they will charge at lower voltages and lower power input but of course very slowly. So if you bought a 12V adapter cable but your notebook can take 19.5V or 20V (same thing on laptops...anything within 5% of the voltage is good enough for most electronics) and you're only giving it 12V PD then you're losing out on a TON of charging power since 12V 3A is the max and 20V can go up to 5A....but you need a cable with an E-Marker for more than 3A and you need your charger to support all of that. The charger should have its supported PD voltages and current on the charger itself and on the box it came in. Too many people trying to use 20 or 30W chargers when they need 65W or 100W. Same thing goes for cables, too many people complaining that they aren't charging fast enough and they are using a cable without an E-Marker but their device can take up to 100W and their charger is capable of 20V 5A..but cable limits them to 20V 3A.
Just want to say Thank You! I really appreciate the in dept review of these adapters!
so it'll charge the battery even with a 5V 2A powerbank then? im sold 😅
Yes - though of course your charging speed will be determined by your power source.
Hi..nice video..would you compare it with Wireless HDMI Adapter like UGREEN Wireless HDMI Video Ext Display TV too..thx
Couldn’t you have done this without the 💩 nauseating noise/music?
is the 1942 version the latest one ?
Yes, the third-gen (4K) model is 1942.
The camera bump ruined the whole device!. I would still get the original duo at any day. Even now, a year later after this video were posted, since the planned duo 3 had been cancelled.
The two 9V profiles are different amps, so different watts. One is 9Vx2.22A=20W and the other 9Vx2.77A=25W. That’s why there’s two 9V profiles, 20W and 25W. More profiles means more devices are likely to charge at their optimal rate.
Probably a dumb question- but is it possible to charge the battery by plugging a USB-C charger into the actual drone while the battery is inside?
Unfortunately no - the USB-C port on the Mavic Air 2 / 2S is for data only and cannot be used to charge the battery.
It would be nice to revisit this video and include Tesla Superchargers. The landscape is changing with the adoption of the Tesla "NACS" connector arrangement. I'm a Tesla owner and the user-experience is *better* than a gas station. I back into the charging stall, plug in the connector and walk away; no fiddling around with a phone app. I bought a CCS1 adapter so I could charge from a CCS charging station and was successful, but with more manual steps. I hope as time goes on, the other charging networks can interact directly with the vehicle to identify and authorize charging and not require a manual intervention through some other application. Perhaps in the future, you'll be able to join your car to the other charging networks and the vehicle will just be identified when plugged in. I'm a new Tesla EV owner and did a couple of road trips recently. I think that the metric for "goodness" isn't necessarily emulating the old gas pump user experience. Taking 15 minutes for a charging stop to hit the restroom, maybe grab a snack or drink means I'm really not sitting around waiting in practice. Also, getting over the range anxiety and charging from 10%-20% goes very much faster than trying to top-off. Slightly different habits yields a pretty good result for me. Thanks for the video!
Now they are less than 20k with under 10k miles
yep you are right…found one on carfax for 17K with only 9 thousand miles
Found one for $9k with 30k/miles
Best review I watched🙂
I really do not understand why add this adapter? Both LCD TV and laptop are connected to the same access point.
Normally a TV is just a display and can only take a wired video (e.g., HDMI) input. To cast content wirelessly to the TV, you need a mechanism like the Miracast, Chromecast, or AirPlay protocols. As we mention in the video, many "smart TVs" and streaming sticks can act as receivers for one or more of those protocols, but they tend to perform poorly compared to, e.g., standalone certified Miracast receivers, so for those who intend to cast content regularly, a standalone receiver may be worth considering.
Can i use this wireless adaptor with ipad?
Apple unfortunately supports only AirPlay on their devices, so these Miracast receivers will not work with an iPad. You'll need an Apple TV for the best AirPlay casting experience, though streaming sticks like Roku also include some AirPlay support.
Whats the point of this, we spent 7.5 minutes watching you "Unbox", then you claim it snowing outside, so you cant show the setup!! Don't waste my time.
What if the slime container does mot push out slime even though the power box is on a working.
Will it work for the ps4?
Could you please answer my question if possible please? 1. Is the “3rd Gen” the same as the “4k” Model?
Yes, the 4K model is the 3rd gen Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter. The three generations are shown here (under "identify your wireless display adapter model"): support.microsoft.com/en-us/surface/use-the-microsoft-wireless-display-adapter-e3c36815-74b2-b6fb-f09a-923ef28fd5fb
This review is MILES ahead of others (pun intended). Why can’t others be a so thorough as this? I feel so much more assured with my purchasing decision.
Thank you - glad you found it useful!
