Very informative video and learnt about the actual rated capacity, which is something that most people will miss out. Currently using GXM 130W powerbank for my daily usage
Unfortunately I do not have a Powerbank I can charge my laptop with. I would really like to own one. But for my phone I currently use a Nitecore NB10000 Gen2 which I love. Small size and portable. But some times I just need the extra power for a laptop or tablet. This is where these solutions you show would be great. They are still relatively small compared to a powerbank with a 230V outlet.
Mine died with only 3 month's, and almost no use.. left it on desk then tried to used it showing battery 0% even though full charge last time. Now doesnt charge 😢😢 Updated: product support was the best, contacted them and received a replacement with just providing my address and Amazon order! Great!! ☆☆☆☆☆
Currently using the Anker PowerCore III 19K 60W to re-up drone batteries and for charging my phone and watch while away from home. The downside is low wattage, only 1 USB-C and it lacks a display. The 120V wall adapter to charge was also poorly engineered and the foldable prongs became disconnected after a short time. 🖖🏻
I use a gp 381ca output 2.1a, had it about 9 years, would love one of these as i could take it with me to power extra mini drone batteries or charge my TM12K
I thought you explained the differences of power banks very well, young man. The price is still way too high, though 'for me, anyway. 😊 You do a fantasic job in the production of your video's. Thank you for sharing your experiences and knowledge with me.😊
Great video, honestly i never wanted a power bank due to my phone is just right power before end of the day. but now this phone (pixel 5) is aging so i am kinda start to searching new power bank for my phone and other devices ....
Could you guys PLEASE update your line of power banks to accomodate at least 65w fast charging input and output? More is beter, of course but at least 65w is becoming standard in phones now and I really want one of your Carbo/Summit banks that use 65w fast charging. My ugreen charger and Asus phone work perfectly together but now my Summit bank is a bottleneck in performance and as an ultralight hiker that min/maxes every gram, every minute counts when charging my gear.
I currtly have a cheap power bank to power my phone when it dies when I'm out of town but the power bank doesn't even give a full charge it barely gives 30% from full.
I am a little confused they advertise 25,000 mAh for the cukteck 20 but in the Specs they write that its rated capacity is 13,500 mAh. So what is it now?
To clarify on what was said in the video, rated capacity is calculated after eliminating any power need by the powerbank circuitry itself to step up the output voltage from the internal batteries to a higher voltage for the USB charging. For example, the batteries inside might output 3.7V but for USB charging it would require 5V. The internal circuitry of the powerbank is what helps to step up this voltage but it does require power to perform this action. The rated capacity is calculated by eliminating how much power would be taken by the circuitry to step up the voltage, in this case it would be 11,500mAh. Most powerbanks actually are the same but not all of them openly display their actual rated capacities. Hope this clarifies things for you!
I have the nitecore nb 10000 power bank I daily carry in my bag. I think it's perfect for daily phone use, small, light and compact. But I do have a bigger power bank for camping trips and stuff when I'm out for days
Nitecore needs to make a DC "mini" UPS, like the Eaton 3S Mini or APC CP12036LI! I think this is a huge untapped market. As an IT service provider, I am very very tired of installing traditional ni-cad / lead acid AC->DC->AC-DC UPS-es. Such a stupid and outdated technology but for some reason reliable LiPO DC UPS-s are difficult to find (except for the dodgy brands on Amazon).
CUKTECH 20 looked through the specs and the manual clearly states it only has 13,500mah, about half as what’s advertised and labeled on the side of the device. It does work properly unlike the last brand I tried, but the capacity is only half of what’s advertised.
Issue with powerbanks higher than 100W, is that Airlines don't want you to take it in their flight. So it's better to just get a 100W powerbank if you're going on flights.
As the other commenter said, this is incorrect. The device has to be under 100 watt hours. Basically, the capacity of the battery. Has nothing to do with the output wattage from the port.
It's the charge 2 for me. Nothing else has the adjustable DC output. That's the only reason to pay these prices. Then again, of you're a slave of the apple eco system, then it doesn't matter.
Another great vid! I bought the Nitecore 20k thinking that it was capable of charging my laptop, but came to find out later that it could not!

What one? Nitecore?
@@ThatCrazyRCGuy67 CUKTECH 20 :(
Don't buy anything not supported by the manufacturer!
same lol
Awsome vid as always👌 i just got the Nitecore BP 18 for work, would have been great to have a powerbank to go along with it😉

I'm curious on how the Sharge 170 compare to the Anker prime tho
"Everything with this powerbank is perfect, except the name"

Love the non biased review. Thanks man!

currently using a Joway 20k to handle my laptop charging n devices when I'm out on the move ! another addition to the set would be great !
I use an Anker power bank that maxes out at 65w. This would be great for charging my laptop.
I like p23 u can change the battery inside if the battery is already damage.
I'd like to use one of these with one of those soldering irons like the pinecell pine 64.
The cuktech can charge gaming laptop?
I am looking for a xiaomi powerbank charger for my xiaomi phone and wondering if it is really true for Cuktech 20?
Cuktech is a xiaomi brand
Keep up the great work mate, I'm in the market for a power bank and like both the shargeek and the cuktech brands 👍

Great vid, very informative. Looking forward to more.
More to come!
I only have a 3.0 100 watt wall charger will it still give the cuktech 20 95 watts? Or would it be like 20 because its not compatible?
I am a little confused they advertise 25,000 mAh for the cukteck 20 but in the Specs they write that its rated capacity is 13,500 mAh.

I had their thick yellow charger…it broke 1 week after 30 days of minimal use
currently using Anker 20000mAh PD but looking for replacement 😬
Got a Cukteck-10 , may get the 20 unit!
I have only a xiaomi 20000 power bank for my mobile phone... sure i cant charge my laptop.
Thanks for this great video.
Does the Cuktech-20 come with its own wall charger?
I currently have a few solar power Banks can't seem to find a good one to charge my phone completely any good suggestions
I have the nitecore nb 10000 power bank I daily carry in my bag. I think it's perfect for daily phone use, small, light and compact. But I do have a bigger power bank for camping trips and stuff when I'm out for days
Please review the backpack 🙏🏻
Been using Aukey powerbank for two of my Iphone
These are not on my local Nitecore site, we're are these units coming from!😮
The first two links to the CUKTECH devices are broken links.
Thanks for the heads up!
Absolutely trust anything from a brand that names itself 'cukbank'
Nitecore needs to make a DC "mini" UPS, like the Eaton 3S Mini or APC CP12036LI! I think this is a huge untapped market.

Oh it’s coming 😏
really love sharge design
Agreed!
@@NitecoreSG i just bought the cuktech 20 for 60€ it will arrive in few day hope it does Amazing job.
prefer cuktech lcd interface
I just picked one up for $30 brand new I really hope it last for a while
watthour is best unit to determine battery capacity as various electronic devices use different voltages eg. 12V DC, 5V DC
CUKTECH 20 looked through the specs and the manual clearly states it only has 13,500mah, about half as what’s advertised and labeled on the side of the device. It does work properly unlike the last brand I tried, but the capacity is only half of what’s advertised.
I used a ryobi 18v inverter charger. Very big. Very slow. I hope to win 🏆
No powerbank but planning to buy carbo 20k
i dont have a power bank anymore. My last one got stolen. But it was a piece of crap anyway
Carbo 10k would love to win ^^
I am using an 8 years old Romoss powerbank that needs to be replaced.
8 years is amazing! 😱
@@NitecoreSG I know, but it needs replacement now, as the battery starts to bloats. Might need one of your's powerbank lol
Issue with powerbanks higher than 100W, is that Airlines don't want you to take it in their flight.
So it's better to just get a 100W powerbank if you're going on flights.
Power Watts are different from Capacity Watts (usually called WatthHour)
As the other commenter said, this is incorrect. The device has to be under 100 watt hours. Basically, the capacity of the battery. Has nothing to do with the output wattage from the port.
Great vid

Thays a bomb
If i like comment & win also..nothing is going to work because I'm from Nagaland India. Far from reality. 😊
ok
I like cuktech
