I've always had a good experience with UGREEN despite their lower price point. Good to see that UGREEN continue to do this with this beefy desktop charger. I'm also a big fan of the AC socket which helps when you travel with it.
Lower price point at $200? Nowadays there're quite a few excellent chargers for quite a bit lower than that, e.g. there's the very nice 245W 4 port USB-C charger from Hyperloop for $149. There's also some very cool chargers from chargeasap at a lower price point, though I should mention that they don't have 4 USB-C ports. Caveat emptor: I've had both devices from Ugreen as well as a travel adapter from chargeasap (and in addition, their support policy is insolent) fail me in the past, so neither brands will become a favourite of mine.
first time commenting on any of your videos but i've been watching every new uploads since i've bought my ugreen 65w 2c1a charger. i'm completely amazed by the amount of detail and effort that you put into creating these videos, especially the tests that you put these devices through. i hope that you keep on improving on your testing methods. here's to more subs and views, cheers!
The most important question was again not answered: Will it automatically distribute the load on the go by limiting the output or will it reconnect all devices when it has to rebalance? For a super-expensive charger like this (priced at $200) I would experience the former, however having made bad experiences with many other brands (and by no means cheap chargers) I would like to see this clarified before I make such a big investment; I do have various high end GaN chargers for my charging needs on the go, literally the only thing I'm looking for is a multi-port charger with 6 or more outlets (4 or more of which should be USB-C) which can continuously supply devices with juice and not have all devices go bonkers when a device is connected or disconnected. How hard could it be? Appearantly a multi-port USB-C charger is a big challenge already but dynamic load limiting seems to be the big bad end boss...
we made a special video to talk about this issue: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DkKhINccZ2M.html As of now, there are still not many chargers that support this feature.
@@ChargerLAB Indeed it is very rare that chargers support this. That's exactly why I'm requesting that you test and report if they do or don't so we don't have to trial and error through such bad devices. Many chargers have such a dumb implementation that they will disconnect all devices even if they're nowhere near the actual power limit and continue charging with the exact same voltage and power on the ports after the reconnect.
Although the ugreen nexode 200w charger has been surpassed by it's more powerful sibling nexode 300w, the 200w nexode is still a great charger with 6 ports and has the ability to charge 2 devices simultaneously at 100w each or 3 devices simultaneously at 65w each and best of all it cost less than half as much as the 300w nexode.
Nice video! Thank you so much! ❤ One question: when I plug/unplug the USB-C connector from these ports, what happens to the other ports that are in use? In my current UGREEN charger (I have one with 3 USB-C ports + 1 USB-A port, 100W total capacity), the behavior is that when I’m using port USB-C1 and if I connect a device in USB-C2, then USB-C1 loses power and re-energizes. This power cut is annoying because I have a modem without a battery connected to USB-C1 and it resets whenever this happens. Did they fix this in this model?
I wonder if we can control each port manually how much watt they supply using phone app , waiting for smart charger. Lot of room for charger to evolve.
No wonder why i returned mine 3 days after using it. Not only can it not deliver 200 watts when split up, but it also does not support 21v 5a PPS. I bought a wotobeus 200w power adapter with 3c and 1a to replace it, and then wotobeus 240w 3c 2a, which has three USB C 100w ports and 2 30w USB A ports, Then I finished with Battpit 245w USB C 5 port charger, which i purchased because the first usb c port is PD 3.1, and the other usb c ports support 100w, and two usb a ports at 22.5w. This charger here doesn't care about the distribution of USB power, it just shuts off if power is more than about 270 watts. So I consider 260 watts to be the maximum load for this charger.
Yes, depends on where ypu order it from. They offer UK, EU and US styled plugs, the latter two only come with two prongs, the EU styled plug works with UK outlets.
