Fast charging of any gadgets: TOP-5 Power bank with a capacity of 65 W and above

Externally, the 2022 debutant from BASEUS is almost identical to the Adaman Metal Digital Display 20000 22.5W. It is also made in an aluminium case, has a capacity of 20,000 mAh, and is equipped with a drop-shaped information screen.

But BASEUS Adaman Metal Digital Display 20000 65W is an older and more advanced version. It is distinguished by an approximately 1 cm increase in length and, more importantly, a high power of up to 65 watts. This allows you to use the model to charge laptops. Tests have confirmed compatibility with laptops from the MateBook, Honor and Apple lines, and, for example, the MacBook Pro 13 2020 battery can be fully charged once, which will take approximately 2 hours.

By the way, when even three devices are connected at the same time, the power drops to 30 W, that is, it will still be higher than that of one port of the younger “relative”. And if two gadgets are charged at the same time, then the peak value can reach 63 watts.

The power bank received 4 ports - two USB A outputs (up to 30 W), one microUSB input (18 W) and a “two-way” USB C (65 W) with a complete cable. It also supports 6 fast charging protocols, including Quick Charge 3.0 and Power Delivery 3.0, as well as Huawei and Samsung proprietary standards. As a result, in half an hour it will be possible to power up to 50% of the iPhone 12 or up to 60% of the Huawei P30.

You will not have to wait long for the charge of the Power bank battery itself to be replenished. Via USB C, the battery will go from 0 to 100% in just 2 hours, but you will need a compatible network device and wire (100W cable recommended).

If you need a power bank for a laptop or a simultaneous quick “recharge” with energy of several mobile gadgets, then the BASEUS Adaman Metal Digital Display 20000 65W is definitely worth a closer look.

The Chinese company BASEUS has already mastered the production of high-quality accessories for various gadgets. Before us is another advanced product of the brand, which can be called a real all-rounder. This is a multifunctional external battery that can charge almost any device: smartphones, tablets, laptops, cameras, portable speakers, wireless headphones, smartwatches and fitness trackers. Moreover, the capacity reserve can be enough for several charges (it all depends on the device and its battery): the declared capacity is 20,000 mAh, but the real capacity, of course, is less - 12,000 mAh. That's enough to charge an iPhone 13 up to 4 times or a Huawei P40 Pro 3 times.

Also, the model differs from most competitors in its design. The manufacturer made the power bank thinner (18 mm), but at the same time wide. It definitely won’t fit in a pocket, but it won’t be felt in a bag or backpack either, since it doesn’t weigh that much - a little less than 500 g. A nice bonus was the presence of a bag-case for storage and carrying in the package.

The main feature of the battery is fast charging up to 100 watts. In addition to Quick Charge and Power Delivery, it supports standards such as Samsung Adaptive Fast Charging and Huawei Fast Charge Protocol, thanks to which the time required for charging is significantly reduced. For example, in just 30 minutes, an iPhone 12 charges 50%, a Dell Vostro 5490 charges 40%, and a 13-inch MacBook Pro laptop charges 39%. The power bank is equipped with four ports (two USB Type-C and two USB Type-A), which allow you to charge multiple gadgets at the same time. But keep in mind that the power is reduced: the maximum 100 watts work only when one device is connected.

The battery itself also charges quickly: it takes just 1.5 hours at the outlet with a 65W charging adapter, or 3 hours with a 30W charger.

Part of the case is occupied by the display, which greatly simplifies the use of the device. It displays information about the charge, power and time remaining until the end of charging. In addition, the manufacturer took care of safety by adding 9 levels of intelligent protection, including overcharging, overheating, overload and short circuits.

The powerful BASEUS battery is suitable for almost all occasions, as it allows you to charge many different gadgets: smartphones, smartwatches, other wearable devices, wireless headphones, tablets and even laptops. The model has a large capacity - 30,000 mAh with a real capacity of 18,000 mAh or 111 W * h. This is quite enough to fully charge the phone 3-5 times or recharge the laptop several times.

Another feature of the model is a large number of ports. There are 7 of them in total: 3 connectors (microUSB, USB C and Apple Lightning) work to charge the battery itself, 5 - to charge mobile devices, that is, one port works both for input and output. Thus, the battery makes it possible to simultaneously charge 5 gadgets, and pass-through charging allows you to connect the Power bank to the network and at the same time not stop charging other devices.

The power bank supports fast charging up to 65 W and various standards, including Power Delivery and the proprietary protocols of the Chinese company Huawei (Fast Charge Protocol and SuperCharge Protocol). For a clear example, the manufacturer cites the following indicators: thanks to fast charging, the iPhone X charges 50% in just 30 minutes, and it takes 57 minutes to fully charge the Samsung S20. But keep in mind that using the Quick Charge protocol, you can only charge two gadgets at the same time, while the maximum power of the USB Type-C port drops to 45 watts.

The battery itself is also charged using 60W fast charging. Therefore, you do not have to charge it all night: despite the large capacity, the power bank takes only 3 hours at the outlet to fully replenish its energy reserves.

Given the large number of ports of different capacities, an informative LED display will help you figure out all the values. It shows the current charge level, current and voltage, while a small button on the case is provided to switch the values.

Special attention deserves the appearance and size of the battery. Despite the impressive capacity, it is not so big, it fits easily in your hand and weighs 550 g. That is, you can safely take it with you on trips or hikes in nature, where there are no usual conditions for charging gadgets. The case is made of fairly durable plastic, the manufacturer gets a solid "five" for the assembly. And for safety, by the way, too: the model has 9 levels of protection, including overcharging, overheating, overload, power surges and short circuits.

A powerful portable charger will be a real lifesaver during long blackouts and in conditions where there is no electricity at all (for example, in nature or while traveling). The model has a large capacity of 25,600 mAh, and although the actual capacity is an order of magnitude smaller (16100 mAh), this is still enough to charge several gadgets. For example, the battery can charge an iPhone 11 Pro Max 4 times, an iPad mini 5 tablet 3 times, or a 2020 MacBook Air laptop once (even a little left). At the same time, it is universal in compatibility and can power laptops, phones, tablets, wireless headphones, wearable gadgets - in general, almost any mobile device from different manufacturers.

The power bank is equipped with four ports: two USB-C with a maximum output power of 87 W and two USB-A. You can connect only one device and use 87W fast charging or 4 gadgets at the same time with a total power of 78W. As a result, the 15-inch MacBook Pro battery takes less than 2 hours to fully charge. But note that when using both USB-C ports, only one of them supports laptop charging. In addition, there is a soft charge mode for safely "feeding" low-power electronics: wireless headphones, portable Bluetooth speakers, etc. To do this, double-click the power button.

To make the use of the battery not only convenient, but also safe, the MultiProtect system is provided, which controls the temperature and protects against high voltage.

Unlike most competitors, ANKER has not been greedy on the package and has added not only a cable, but also a 65W charging adapter. With it, the battery is fully charged in more than 2 hours. In comparison, a full charge with a 12W charger takes almost 10 hours. The charge level is signaled by indicators on the case. Also included in the package is a fabric case - a trifle, but nice.
