Been waiting for this for a while, and I missed out on getting one before the stock ran out on Amazon. Both sizes were available for $549, the same price as on the official Viture site, but then the large one sold out. Just yesterday, I saw it come back in stock, but it is now listed for $689, which is $140 more than the RRP on the Viture site. The regular size is still $549 on Amazon after a 20% auto-applied discount. u/getVITURE there any way to get the large one discounted too? Thanks.

UPDATE: Viture has now added the coupon back to the Large size. Thanks, guys! Bought one.

Have an Anker 737 power bank that suddenly stopped working. Pressing the side button doesn’t turn on the display, and plugging in a device to any of the ports wouldn’t charge. However, if I plug in a power adaptor to the USB C input the display turns on and shows a ~0.3W input, the battery is already at 80%. But as soon as I disconnect the power the display turns off.

If I plug in a device while the power bank is plugged into a power adaptor then I see current flowing through to the plugged in device with the passthrough feature, the input is about 0.7W more than the output. Again, if I disconnect the power adaptor everything stops.

ChatGPT suggested a few things but nothing worked, like holding down the side button for about 15 seconds, plugging in a cable from USB C input to output, connecting the power bank to a low power device like earbuds for about an hour, holding down the side button while plugged in, letting the power bank charge for a while etc.

Failing that I contacted Amazon for a warranty replacement as it was just under 2 years since I bought it, they offered a refund and told me to safely dispose of the battery as they don’t want it returned. But before I throw it away, is there anything else I can try? The battery only has 32 charge cycles, and it was working just fine before. Hate to just throw it away if it can be salvaged.
