Lighter Anker PowerCore+ II 10000 and 20000 Coming Soon! (with Power Delivery)

Recently I am looking for a portable power bank with USB type C for my Pixel 2 XL. These currently available with PD are too big (26800) for the phone. I find a news today about new coming Anker PowerCore+ II 10000 mAH and 20000 mAh with PD and probably by Dec., I think it's worthwhile to wait for that:

Anyone have more information or suggestions? Thank you!

Try the ZeroLemon PD PowerBank. Has USB Type C. I've had it for a few weeks now and it works great.

I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for those. I've been looking to replace the power banks I have with ones that have USB C in/out charging and PD.

Power Delivery is a fast charging standard for USB-C. It's what the Pixel uses for fast charging. That's why it's important.

From my understanding.. PD is important as it is a safety feature on them to make sure it doesn't burn out your phone like the previous generous did. So even if you had a bad/cheap wire it would limit it from doing any real damage to your phone. So with the PD if you notice it isn't charging as fast it is due to the wire not being good enough to output that amp.
That is from what i read. if i'm wrong please correct me.
Thanks.

Has anyone seen this one yet? It has all the "certifications" but no reviews yet. I'm looking into getting a PD charger but with an attached cord since my 12v outlet is in a weird spot. Is there a way to look up the certs on this company?

will these all quick charge?

What spec car charger is required for the Pixel 2 XL? I currently use a Scosche ReVolt Dual with 12W/2.4A per port that works well with my Pixel XL. But it won't charge my Pixel 2 XL at all.

I ordered this one. Supposed to have PowerDrive I'm pretty sure
https://goo.gl/fsGaeE
I just don't believe this phone charges very fast which is making me change my style of charging. I normally only charged on the way to work and way home (20 min each way) with my S8+ and kept it above 90% normally but this one is so slow charging using Waze for traffic I might have to charge at office or home

The Belkin car charger that Google sells on their site is available on Amazon for $17. That's what I got and it works great.

I finally broke down and asked Google Pixel 2 support. "Richard" said that the 2 XL needs 15W and 2A minimum to charge.
That page you gave doesn't show your charger's output per port. But assuming all of them are equal, it only gives 13.5W per port. Not enough for the 2 XL.
I bought 2 of these last night. Great limited time price last night

USB-C chargers with QC3 work fine with the Pixel2XL?

Hi,
I have 2 chargers that I used with my older phone, both are QC3 compatible, USB-C port and 1 of them can deliver 5/9/12 volts.
no matter if I use 1 of them or the charger that came with the pixel2xl I see (in Ampere app) it always charging at around 5V and 1A.
does it mean that any of them is good? is it possible to charge it even faster?
the charging speed is pretty much ok I think.

QC3 will not do anything but charge at standard speeds. This device is power delivery. QC4 will be compatible with power delivery, but good luck finding a QC4 charger.

No. It comes with a Power Delivery charger, the phone is a Power Delivery device.
QC3 and below will charge at a standard (slower) speed. QC4 is compatible with QC and Power Delivery - but, at this time there is no QC4 chargers, oddly.

The OP said that using the charger that came with the Pixel 2xl still charged no faster than the older ones (5v 1A) or did I misread the post?

He said many other things, too.
I think constantly charging with the screen off helps with the charging speed. It shouldn't, but reading other threads has me thinking this. I also, think his phone is faulty.
He also said he thinks the speed is ok.

For the heck of it, I tried the OEM charger with the Ampere app, and it was showing basically 5v at 1 amp. Tried the usb A port on my power strip that does 5v at 2.4 amps, and it read the same 5V at 1 amp. The 1 amp port on the power strip gave a reading closer to 4v at 1 amp.
Not sure what the data source is for the app because the OEM charger definitely charges quickly. I have no doubt the OEM is doing 9 volts at 2 amps. Or something definitely higher than 5v at 2.4 amps. I am assuming it is a net figure being measured somewhere not in the line from the port, since it'll also show the discharge when unplugged. So this is not the power coming into the phone.

So as far as I checked, everything is charging well.
The problem is that if you will install few other Ampere measuring programs, some will reveal that they don't have access to the sensor of the phone so the data isn't accurate.
so, we can hope it's ok. sadly I can't find anywhere a physical USB-C Ampere meter to buy for now.

Nathan k over on Google+ has done some tests with the new pixel 2xl. You can see his results there, and yes, the charge rate absolutely slows down with screen on.

Yeah, I would assume slower rate with screen on, but would it reduce from 9 volts at 2 amps from the OEM charger, to showing only 5 volts at 1 amp? Mine does seem to slow noticeably, but that'd be a big change. Unless it specifically drops the incoming power down when the screen goes on.
I think someone needs to throw down the $25 to get an in line USB C meter to just measure. I almost did yesterday, but got too busy to read the reviews of the ones available.

does anyone know if using QC3 or say an older Nexus 6p charger really hurts the Pixel 2 XL? I keep hearing X and Y chargers shouldnt be used on the Pixel 2 XL..but does it really matter? is the only downside slower charging? or can you really hurt the battery?

Just got the Sdoutech dash charger for the OnePlus 7 pro. I like how the charger itself supports dash charger. Please see attached for photos.

For 36 dollars that's 10,000 mah at 5v 4amps. To get wrap charge its 5v 5amps

How?

I looked it up. You will need find a board that has usb end that can output 5v 5amps. Then you need find batteries that can push 30watts and wire them in series directly to this board. That's what basically what power banks are under the shell. The other option is get a much bigger power bank for like 100 dollars that you can plug into

Hmmm explain this like your 5 and have don't have google? No
But I will point you in the right direction. Google "3s 18650 powerbank" Use the power adapter guts and a 3s battery balencer. And there you go. If your going small get high discharge 18650 like the brown LG H2. Also wanna be careful of fakes they are as bad or worse than the micro SD card knock offs. Good luck have fun!

Noo. Waiiit.
Go to Amazon. Type in "powerbank for Chromebook."
Chromebook type C chargers should, whether wall or portible chargers/power bank , will give a very fast charge as well. I used my Chromebook type C charger all the time for my Note 9. It charged it like three times faster than Samsung OEM charger. Even with fast charging turned off.
I expect any Chromebook charger will do the same for my OneOlus 7 pro.
Build one???? ?

I've got a Baseus, 20000 mah, 18w max, 3a max, QC 3.0, PD. Power Bank have digital display.
I use the red USB-2 (QC 3.0, PD), that it's described to have 3a, if you use it alone. But it charges with 1,3a. In Usb-1, the normal one same, 1,3a .

There's loads of 15w wireless chargers on Amazon, I'm sure they probably all do the job more or less as well as eachother

The Pixel Stand is buggy as hell with the Pixel 5 (or maybe the other way around?). So you might be better off sticking with USB-C for the time being anyway.

I've never had any bad experiences with Anker.

For max output doesnt the charger need to be google certified!
I'm asking because, as far as the Pixel 3 goes, that was the case. The Pixel stand, from reading, was the only wireless charger that was compatible in that sense.
Anyone willing to shine light on this?

I bought Yootech wireless charger for my Pixel 4, it also works at around 10W with Pixel 5. I've not tested many, but from what I've seen on some forums most of the chargers would only work at 5W with P4. Not sure if anything has changed with P5. I'm using it with the original Pixel 18W charger, as I bought it without one.

Well i ended up buying one and although it is very well made and charges quickly i didn't like how hot my phone got when left on it overnight to charge so I'll be sending it back. This isn't a fault of the charger though more a side effect of the technology, it is just a shame it doesn't cut off totally at 100%. If you are going to be using it to just top up for the odd hour or so it is hard not to recommend it though, it is hard to believe they only want a tenner for it to be honest, a great find by kinny314.
