We tested the UPS function of the C1000 Gen 2 by unplugging the AC cable while having stuff plugged into the outlets.
So far so good. Devices kept running.
However, it no does not charge when we plug the AC cable back into the unit. No power is used from the wall and its running off of its battery only.
The 140W charger really suffers with delivering the rated output for more than a short amount of time, so I present the Mk2. Anker please take notes…
At the heart of the new ANC technology is Anker’s custom-designed Thus chip. "We actually spent three years building this foundation for Anker,” says Qian. The Thus chip is not solely for the Liberty 5 Pro series. Thus is a significant multi-year investment to develop proprietary silicon, which moves Anker from a component assembler to an architecture player.
I recently purchased a Anker A1689, it doesn’t charge with my Anker charging block and usb c to c cable. The power bank was not part of the recall and would charge with no name brand usb a to c cable on the Anker block. I’ve tried multiple Anker cables (usb c to c) with no luck including the built in cable. When plugging into my phone/airpods, I never ran into that issue. Has anyone experienced the same issue?
Edit: would like to add that when plugged in with the Anker block with built in usbc and external usbc, it will flash charging for 5 seconds and then turns off. After about 40 mins, I tried it again and it charges again. Opened up a ticket with Anker and was advised by the support staff it could be a compatibility issue…
Literally just arrived in the mail while I was out along with the rest of my amazon order.
Is there a way to fix it or am I just going to have to return it?
Found an old USB hub I bought ages ago, but lost the power adapter to. I'm trying to see if I can't find it somewhere, but in the meantime, does anyone know what type of barrel jack it uses? I think it might be D, but I want to be certain before I go out and buy something.
Labeling on the strip it's negative external, positive internal at 12v DC. I've found what I THINK are 'E' and 'M' type cables from other things - both of which were overvoltage compared to the hub, mind - and neither of them fit. The E type was too big on the external bit (as well as having a prong in the middle) while the M type did fit overall, but the 'middle' was too thin to support the 'prong' inside the hub's port.
I'm not certain if Anker offers direct, replacement power cables for the hub, especially since it's pretty damn old. Any help would be appreciated, many thanks.
Hey everyone,
I’m looking to buy this used Anker Prime 24,000mAh (140W) power bank from a local seller, but I noticed something strange on the smart display stats and wanted to get your expertise.
As you can see in the pictures:
Battery Health: It is showing 100%.
Battery Cycles: It is only at 16 cycles (which seems very low and brand new).
The Weird Part: The screen usage is incredibly high, showing 1,423 Screen Uses!
How is it possible to have over 1,400 screen uses with only 16 battery cycles?
Do you think the seller managed to reset or format the battery cycle count via firmware while the screen stats remained? Or could this be an ex-display unit that was constantly plugged in at a store?
Would love to hear your thoughts on whether this is safe to buy or if the stats have been manipulated. Thanks!
I have a Anker MagGo Power Bank A1654, I was trying to charge my phone with it but it wouldn’t charge and the LED screen said 100%, after trying a number of way the power bank won’t charge when I press the button and the LED Screen won’t switch on either. I cannot loop reset as it only has 1 port. Please advise.
