About this deal

Aukey makes some of the best charging accessories on the market, and I recommend them constantly for their ridiculously tiny 18-30W chargers. The company unveiled a new batch of gallium nitride (GaN) chargers called the Omnia Series that gives us not one but two awesome two-port 65W chargers to choose from.

60W 2-Port USB C Charger, PowerPort Atom PD 2 [GAN Tech] Compact Anker 60W 2-Port USB C Charger, PowerPort Atom PD 2 [GAN Tech]

The single-port iSmart option supports 20V/3.25A, which is the speed you'll want most often for a laptop unless you manage to find a charger that supports 5A charging, which usually isn't added to a charger until it gets up closer to 100W. It's also the most compact of the bunch right now, and that's important if you're prone to charging in tight spaces or overcrowded outlet strips at the airport. This also makes it an excellent travel buddy, helped by the fact that the prongs can be folded away to make it even smaller. Aukey's multi-port Omnia chargers get a lot of the spotlight these days, but the single-port 61W Omnia is well worth a look, too. This charger is a quarter-inch smaller in length and width, meaning that it'll fit easier into tighter spaces and more crowded gear bags. The 61W highest output also makes it a good fit for MacBooks — 61W is the top speed for smaller Macbooks and is still a nice fast speed for charging larger models — and of course, it'll charge just about every Chromebook released in the last three years at top speed, too. I would love to see the Aukey Omnia 100W with 2 or even 3 Type-C ports, with even 20+ extra watts, will be very good to replace all the chargers in a the bag, great to charge the laptop, phone and an extra device there. The iSmart 65W PD GaN charger may look plain as a button, but it has many perks to spruce it up. You get two ports, one of which is a USB C port and the other a USB A port. Happily, it also comes with a USB-C to C cable, which is great if you're just beginning your USB-C journey and need to build up your cable collection. Despite the dull appearance, you can fold the prongs of this iSmart charger. If you insist on charging two things at once, the C port will push out 45W while the A port will pump out 5W to 18W of power. You'll only get the full 65W charging speed with the USB C port in use by its lonesome self.Why you can trust Tom's Hardware Our expert reviewers spend hours testing and comparing products and services so you can choose the best for you.

Charger shut down before 20 minute stability / heat test could complete at that wattage. Finding Discounts on the Best USB-C Laptop Chargers

Bring your own USB-C cable: Most USB-C laptop chargers come in wall wart style, with a single chassis and prongs that fold inward for compact storage. However, they usually don’t come with cables, so you’ll need to buy a USB-C to USB-C cable of appropriate length, usually at least six feet, if you don’t already have one. Which of these chargers comes with a three-prong power connector? I hate the tingly feeling I get when I use a power adapter for my MBP 16" that doesn't have a ground...

bit_userI am sorry for the unnecessary addition. I agree it is good if there is place were we aren't distracted with all those social issues and can focus on something else. Unfortunately these things are permanently popping up everywhere where, and also in my mind. So the rebel in me pops up unexpectedly sometimes The better of the two Omnia Duo 65W models have two USB-C ports, allowing you just to carry one type of cable when your travel, but there's also a version with USB-C and USB-A for those who need a legacy port for older accessories. You'll pay a little more for the dual USB-C model, but I recommend that one not just because you can consolidate to just C-to-C cables, but because it means that you When outputting either its maximum wattage or just below its rated wattage, the Aukey Omnia PA-B5 can get pretty hot, returning skin temperatures of 165 degrees Fahrenheit (73.9 Celsius) and 154 degrees (67.8 Celsius) respectively. However, if it's not pulling close to the maximum -- as laptops rarely do -- the charger will be quite a bit cooler. When we pulled just 65 watts, the Aukey Omnia PA-B5's temperature hit just 119 degrees Fahrenheit, which is in line with what the coolest 65-watt chargers. The rounded corners, along with the and soft detailing on the corners and the front face of this charger, feel sublime in the hand when pulling that charger out of my gear bag. While it's a bit bigger than the RAVPower, the Omnia Duo 65W is still lightweight, and the LED indicator is noticeable but not blindingly bright. Mind the second port: Many chargers also come with a second port that's either USB Type-A or USB-C. You can use this port to charge a mobile device or even power a Raspberry Pi, but it will take a certain amount of amperage away from the main port.

For the curious, here is a fantastically well-written and rigorously illustrated article on this subject, describing the minutiae of a PD implementation bug (in Apple’s own hardware, no less!) that I would recommend to all interested parties. Plus, we don’t even really know the particulars of said negotiation – according to the article, they used load testers set to deliberately overdrive the power supplies. A real-life, laptop-grade PD sink is a subtler construct, designed by dint of obediance to the PD rules to specifically not do this kind of thing. The fact that the RavPower supplies reset themselves under these contrived and extreme conditions is good behavior, no?

B) Because they are wrong, even though they are in the dictionary. The best explanation is to compare these with some other more known ones. For instance lets take temperature, temperature is expressed in Kelvin, Celsius or Fahrenheit. You don't say it's 23 temperature today, no temperature is what you are talking about and you can measure it compared to a reference, for example: "it's 300 Kelvin" is a valid expression. No lets say we have two objects with a different temperature. You can say object A has a lower or higher temperature than B, or you could even tell the exact temperature expressed in one of the usual units. But you never would say, object A has a higher Kelvinage then B, or Fahrenheitage or Celsiusage, that sounds ridiculous doesn't it?I'm not trying to shut you down: it's your right to take it there (as far as I'm concerned), but I would point out that I like having a place on the internet that's not consumed by social issues, right now. RAVPower appears to have a different design philosophy than Aukey when it comes to exceeding its rated wattage. Where the Aukey chargers we tested could sustain wattages above their advertised maximums, RAVPower units could hit higher peaks, but then would shut themselves down after a few minutes. For example, the Pioneer RP-PC133 outputted an epic 73.7 watts (19.5V, 3.78A) on the USB-C port alone, but it didn’t last long.
