- boplicity 2mo agoI don't think there's a USB-C charger out there that can actually pump out anything close to their rated maximum.
- Barbing 2mo agoAt $150 (“on sale” from $184?), wonder how close it comes: https://anker.com/products/a2687-anker-prime-charger-160w-3-ports-gan https://anker.com/products/a2687-anker-prime-charger-160w-3-...
- yreg 2mo agoI have not managed to stress test it yet, I believe that so far I saw it deliver ~100W max. I got it for 110€ in some Amazon bundle together with 3 usb cables. Which is about the price of the 140W Apple brick. (We don't get the powerbricks included with the MacBooks.) But Apple's is much larger, heavier and has a single port.
