@@MrBazReviews i own couple solar panels suaoki 28w qc, suntactics 14w, some unbranded 28w qc, suaoki 40w. so far love suaoki 28w qc 3port panel. it can charge low current devices too. and output is 3amps from standard port. very good panel. and it have 1 qc 3.0 port works well.
@@TheAcidheat The Suaoki seems decent had one for a while perhaps I'll try another one at some point. Never really had an offer to look at solar panels, but if I don't maybe later I'll get one myself. QC is always useful to have
@@MrBazReviews sadly i cant review stuff on yt becoz my english is not good enough and i am disabled in a wheelchair my hands are very weak spinal muscular atrophy...
I try to look at others, but Xiaomi make the best power banks it's really that simple. Some come close but none have matched them, so really no need for a top picks!
Hi!! This video is really helpful, thank you for making this video. I bought this power bank. When i charge my mobile all indicator lights blink together. Is this normal or mine is defective? But when i charge the power bank only one light blinks like any other power bank. It will be really helpful if you answer my question. Thank you again.
Thank you for the review, you’ve mentioned in the video that the type c can be used for both input and output but been trying to use it as an output to charge iPhone XS type c to lighting but it don’t not work that way, any idea why? And does it give an 18w fast charging from the type A ports? As on iPhone you can’t really tell if this is fast charging or not Thanks
Not sure what the problem is the type C is def input and output, used it many times. Perhaps try a different cable? All the specs are shown on screen the type C does do quick charging if the cable/phone supports it
I just recieved this today, i did not see anywhere in the manual about double click for low power charging? where did you find this out? and how can i see it is in this low power mode or not?
Can you explain me again which one is better to buy for a type-C smartphone? The Xiaomi Mi Power Bank 3 20000mAh (PLM18ZM) or the Xiaomi Mi Power Bank 3 Pro (20,000mAh)???
It doesn't really matter for phones the Bank 3 Pro has the higher voltages for Macbook/similar ultrabook charging. For phones either will do. I would go with this over the pro myself as it's cheaper. Hope that helps
Hi! I would really appreciate it if you could answer this for me. I bought this powerbank a week ago but I only managed to put it in low power charging mode once and I don't remember how I did it. I try to press the button 2 times as you indicate but it doesn't work, it just turns off.
It still works on this one, a quick double press. try varying the speed of the double press. You know it works when a single LED lights up and moves along the row of 4 one LED at a time
If you watch the video I show the charging times for normal and quick charge. If it's 14hrs and it's at 2 bars then check the adapter it's probably low amps. You can't 2A or more quick charge is best
My powerbank’s LED light keeps blinking when i am charging my phone. Does it happen with you as well? (does not stay static like when you are charging your powerbank)
Pro version is for users who want to power a macbook or ultracompact laptop, ie higher voltage and faster charging. That is the main difference, so for anyone else this is probably the best bet. Capacity is almost identical, it does quick charge just not the highest voltage and amps v the Pro. For phone use I would get this over the pro
Hey mate. Brilliant review! How does it directly compare to the 2C? I'm asking as the 2C is far more available in my country right now. I'm also watching your vid on it. Cheers.
@@MrBazReviews I thought there could have been more than that, but if that's all, that's great. Thank you so much for the fast and direct reply! Sorry to bother.
My question is why does dual-port do 5.1V 3.6A while in single it does 5.1V 2.4A, that sounds very dumb. Do I have to actually plug in two devices to get full 5.1V/3.6A power for my Raspberry Pi?
I have no idea where you are pulling those figures from it's quite simple: 1:05. The type C port output is higher than the type A, that's the only difference. Potential output that is
@@MrBazReviews In the website it says: Output parameters: 5 V===2.1 A/9 V===2.1 A/12 V===1.5 A Output parameters (single-port output): 5.1 V===2.4 A/9 V===Max. 2 A 12 V===Max. 1.5 A Dual-port output: 5.1 V===3.6 A It also says the the Type-C port is only for input. Therefore the above information imply that using a single 5v device it can have 2.4A and using 2 of them it can have 3.6A (is that cumulative or for each device?) source: www.mi.com/my/20000mah-redmi-18w-fast-charge-power-bank/specs
It constantly stop charging my devices after 15-20 mins.. Have to manually press the power button again for it to resume charging... Any idea why is this happening?
Hi I just bought this. Everything works fine but I had this strange issue: I'm using a USB C to C cable and my phone is charging the power bank. My other phone doesn't not charge at all. Tried with 3 different cables and same issue. Also, iPhone cables are usb C to iphone port even that cable doesn't work with apple phone. Anyone facing the same? Any solution to it?
I've seen this from time to time. Try connecting the cable to power bank first, then press the button once to power it, then connect the phone. Try it that way see how it works
@@MrBazReviews I did all ways including this but unfortunately did not work. Also, the charge isn't holding up. Today I charged 1 phone 4000 mAH and it went all the way to 1 light. Really frustrating :( did it happen to you as well?
@@MrBazReviewsit took 8 hours to charge 3 led lights using the 67watt adapter from my poco phone and the usb c cable that came with the powerbank is it normal?
@@MrBazReviewshm yeah thats weird it fully charges between 7 hours and 14 hours, is it possible its the cable that came with the powerbank the problem why it charges slower than expected? Ill be trying to charge the pb with my phones cable and adapter once my powerbank juice runs out but for now I appreciate you actively helping people in the comments too btw! Subscribed 👍
Can you please do a video on how to verify real and fake Xiaomi Powerbank. I recently brought a Xiaomi 20k gen 3 power bank. When I look inside both USB port it show a M1 logo instead of a mi logo and it also cannot go onto low power charging no matter how many times I click on the button. I’m suspecting I brought a counterfeit powerbank
@@MrBazReviews most website recommend to look inside the USB port under a bright light, if able to see the mi logo which is really tiny it’s real. But I just saw a M1 logo.
It should fast charge, but Huawei have their own charging protocol so it might not be as fast as it could be I've found the support for quick charge/PD is solid, a bit less so with other types of charging
Charge or power? The pro version can power straight from the power bank (higher voltage more amps) Any power bank can charge a laptop if the output is high enough
Your iPhone is made in China. Your Android phone is made in China. If it's not fully assembled in China the parts used to get it assembled were made in China. Your car parts are made in china. Your clothes were made in China. Some of the smartest people running international companies…their parents and grandparents were made in China. If you really want to avoid Chinese products... You should go live in a Forest... Naked. Ignorant fool.
Mr Baz, I managed to get the voltage of the batteries up, I had trouble using a paper clip due to my shaking hands, I used a metal spatular which is normally used for turning a steak over in the frying pan, I have recorded this very short video today, I have only used these batteries around 10 or 20 times in the past 5 years or so, so these Tronic 2500mAh NiMH batteries are virtually new, what is going on because after 5 minutes, the charger is showing full, surely that can't be, here is the video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mT1zSZ0IqzQ.html
I don't know I dumped my Tronic cells years ago I didn't find them that good, stick to good quality Ni-MH cells you'll have no problems with them They don't last, 5 years sitting around they clap out fairly quickly that's my experience. Eneloop, Odec (decent budget brand), even the Duracell or Energizer ones are solid.
is this the newest xiaomi powerbank model? i'm confused. is there a usb c to usb c to charge the phone with? i've never bought a powerbank like this before. my phone has the usb c type
