@@adon8672 Capacity x Voltage Powerbanks usually have 3,7 or 5v and if i Mutiple 3,7 x 27650 its 102,3 and with 5v even 138,3 or I am wrong? Couldnt find the voltage of this powerbank
btw just to let you know anker recently released new battery banks including an upgrade to this exact one with 240w and a cool wireless pin charging connection that works with their new desk charger
Bought mine in Jan 2023. Malfunctioned and stopped working September 2023. Warranty from Anker only 90 days so that was $130 I lost. Worked great when it did though. I’ll go with my others that cost less and I’ve had for YEARS!
My Anker 737 will not give an output of anything remotely close to over 100 watts. In fact, when plugged into my 15-inch MacBook Air, the output is 55w max. With my 12.9 iPad pro, the output is 37w max. Both were just using single port charging. I'm actually currently in contact with Anker's tech support to try to resolve this issue. I've sent them a video of the issue and now I'm just waiting on their response. I'm glad to know that yours works without issues.
Those are at least for the iPad their max charging speeds the battery won’t make your devices charge faster than they can that would cause what’s known in the industry as a big ass FIRE
@@car_tar3882 thanks! I recently found that to be true about those being the max charging speeds for those devices. I feel like such a clown but I love the Anker 737 lol
they sold me on this new line up with the wireless charge by placing it on top of a different product in the line up. i think it will be handy and look nice on my desk. im going to be patient though and wait on hopeful holiday sales
Hi, great review, thanks very much. I note the reservations about loss of efficiency charging smaller devices but my priority as a thru-hiker, is to get recharged as fast as possible and also, ofcourse, weight. Is there anything which can compete with this power bank?
If you're planning to charge your phone while hiking, keep in mind that the phone's maximum charge speed will likely be much slower than the 140W this device can provide. So, using this particular charger won't necessarily speed things up. There are lighter, smaller, and more affordable options that will likly get you the same results. Though I don't have personal hiking experience, this device seems a bit heavy to carry around. You might want to consider alternatives like the Xiaomi 20,000 mAh 3 Pro or the Baseus 20,000 mAh 65W instead
@ChargedGear-yb4nn thanks so much for getting back to me - much appreciated. I'm not too worried about how long it takes to charge my devices as I have all day, it's recharging the battery itself which is important as this may need to be done in a brief pitstop as I pass an occasional power outlet. I can't find anything else at this capacity that will charge in under an hour. The weight of the battery plus the wallcharger is a concern. This is a significant component in a load of perhaps 8-9 kilos but the weight has to be balanced against the extra facility. Ultimately I think I would be happy to take the weight on.
I have not tested it yet, but Anker has a new 20,000mAh version with even faster charge speeds I believe it is the Anker Prime 20000 200W - A1336. It could be much of what you need but in a lighter weight package.
Thank for the incredibly helpful review. I am an Anker fanboy and admire this pack a ton, but I’m not looking to charge laptops so you helped me save hard earned money. Any advice on a solid pack with high Mah that is geared more toward cell phones and small medical devices such as an insulin pump? Thanks again.
The Sharge gets great reviews because it looks good. The only problem is that their support and warranty is severely lacking. Which I could probably live with, but the power bank is extremely fragile. For example, nothing protects the screen, and Sharge will not sell you a replacement LCD. Speaking from experience here - they told me to buy a new power bank.
Hello, I got one yesterday and plugged in my 22ultra and only got 18w charging from the usb-c1 port. Plugged in 2 more devices, for 3 total, and everything dropped to 4w and lower. Am I missing something? For the ultra I used the 140w cable and have fast and super fast charging enabled.
Charge power will depend on the battery level of the device being charged. Empty battery in the device will charge faster than if the device battery is closer to being full. Might be this.
@chriswilcox8977 yeah, I tried with a lower battery and managed to get between 25-27w. I'm wondering if I need to charge it from an even lower % to do super fast charging or if it's not compatible.
@noahani10 I was able to get between 25-27w with my s22 ultra while charging from about 10%. I'm wondering if I need to be below that to pull closer to 45w or if it's a lack of compatibility. Anyways, the capacity seems to check out from what I've seen so I'm satisfied overall. Though I wish I had something that could pull 140w so I could see how it compares to what other people have gotten.
@@franciscoorantes675 thats slow, because it supports Samsung fast charge, my Oppo find x5 pro only charges with 18 watts 🫠 but its designed for bigger devices like laptops where the powerbank is efficient
@@abulka ah got it. airlines don't care about watts, they care about capacity. the limit is Watt Hours (Wh) not Watts (W). So 100 Watt Hoursh limit, no limit on Watts. This pack is fine.
probally prefer baseus blade hd/normal ver anker 737 is just too expensive for me lol . 50$ price difference for 12/7(normal and hd ver)wh difference lol
I gave up giving a damn about TSA’s rules recently. I can tell you I’ve taken tons of flights and I have much larger batteries in multiples of those batteries that I put in my backpack and no one has said anything to me. And I wouldn’t care if they did. I’m just living my life the way I want to live it. I do like this battery pack but it’s currently not a good deal on Amazon.
They released a new line, up to 250W and 27.000+ mAh 🔥
Just ended one today. The new one is not necessary for the price markup
Is this allowed on airlines? I'm planning on getting one to bring on my business trip next month.
@@DarkZerol then the big version is not allowed max is 100wh
@@SprintetRuckwaertsthat big one is still less than 100Wh.

You'll need a pd 3.1 cable to get maximum power
Check your cable. Usb-C cables are all rated differently
Those are at least for the iPad their max charging speeds the battery won’t make your devices charge faster than they can that would cause what’s known in the industry as a big ass FIRE
Try a better cable.

I got one two days ago, I love it.
Nice quality review and editing. I'd like to see you test the Ugreen 145W.
I just finished testing the Ugreen 145W. Its really impressive.
they sold me on this new line up with the wireless charge by placing it on top of a different product in the line up. i think it will be handy and look nice on my desk. im going to be patient though and wait on hopeful holiday sales
I am looking to review that one soon. Does look cool.
Love mines so much got 2 of them ..watch for the sales..got one for 90 USD
Oh!!! When and where did you make the purchase? That sounds like an awesome price for this type of device.
Nice video keep up the good work fella
outputs 78wh total. which is good. but shows 100 percent full when obly 85pc full. hence the fast charging time quote which is misleading
Does it get turned off to avoid battery drainage and how ?

Hey found a similary speced power bank that is a lot cheaper want to buy it but dont see any youtube videos on it

Baseus 65w 20000mAh. Crazy value for money.
@@ChargedGear-yb4nn very much appreciated and I am now a subscriber.
Is it a lot more worth it for Black Friday $92 usd? I feel like it.
What about the 200 w one ? Would you say the 737 is better ?
Can you please compare the Anker and Sharge ASAP! I need one in next few weeks

can you test aliexpress self made powerbanks you add 18650 cells to?
You can bring higher capacity power banks on airlines. I've brought 30k and 60k mah. Problem
You will probably get away with a 30k as thats close to 100wh limit but its just a matter of time before the 60k gets confiscated at security.
45Wh Laptop battery is almost dead so how long it consume the battery? thank you
Can you turn it off and how?

The most powerful power bank under the airline carrible limit huh? That’s why they made one with more power, more Watts and more Mah right?
can this be taken on a airline for overseas I believe the watts limit is 100W?
Yes, thats why I said as much in the first 5 seconds of the video.
If 100W is the limit then how is 140W allowed on an airplane? That’s probably what the comment is asking.
@@abulka ah got it. airlines don't care about watts, they care about capacity. the limit is Watt Hours (Wh) not Watts (W). So 100 Watt Hoursh limit, no limit on Watts. This pack is fine.
gonna sub just coz 16 sub with good mic lol

i would probally just get uze bold 2 lol more reliable with slight price difference

Anker! Look at the price of the Shargeek!!
@@user-mk7ny5cm9u sharkgeek is trash man
Watch your hands !!!
There are way more positive reviews than negative on Amazon, but the nature of the negative reviews have me concerned.
Go for the Ugreen 140W if you are concerned. Its a bit cheaper, slightly lighter and smaller but much the same efficiency.
You mean the Ugreen 145W? Looks good but only PD3.0 and impossible to get at the moment, it seems.
@@abulkaAllThingsOnePlace just tested that powerbank and it overheats even outputting 100W of power continously
