    Can recommend.... got one of these before (previous model). Charge overnight and good for days.


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 32,285 Mod ✭✭✭✭The_Conductor


    Presumably its the 45W one everyone is going for?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 480 ✭✭Enrico Palazzo

    Isn't this just over the customs allowance meaning you'll be hit with An Post's 10/15 euro handling charge

    I think you are correct from the revenue website .....

    If your goods have:

    a customs value (including cost, transport, insurance and handling charges) of €22 or less you do not have to pay Customs Duty or VAT
    a customs value of more than €22 you will have to pay VAT


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,570 ✭✭✭Fingers Mcginty


    however i also saw this

    If the VAT payable is €6 or less it will not be collected.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,211 ✭✭✭✭Suckit

    This. If the amount to be collected is less than €6 it is considered negligible and they will not ask for it. So around €26 including delivery is the limit.

    If you are OK with half the capacity you can check this one https://www.aliexpress.com/item/ROCK-Portable-Mini-PD-QC-3-0-10000mah-Power-Bank-External-Battery-USB-PD-Fast-Charging/32960165417.html It's packed with features, tiny, light and costs only $17.99 ($19.99-$2 seller coupon) so it will keep you under the customs' radar. That said, this is not a product recommendation, since I'm yet to receive mine, but on paper it's darn good. I have very good earphones from the Rock brand if that is any relevant, besides I ordered it to replace my broken Xiaomi Pro power bank, so it's not like Xiaomi never fail.

    I didn't know that. Thanks.

    So anyone ordered?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,570 ✭✭✭Fingers Mcginty


    Yes I ordered it. Got an email this morning to say it's dispatched.


  • Registered Users Posts: 224 ✭✭knipper

  • Registered Users, Subscribers, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,589 ✭✭✭✭antodeco


    Will the high mAh stop this being shipped? I know anytime I've tried ordering anything above 12000 I've always had issues getting them shipped via airmail.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,716 ✭✭✭brightkane


    arrived today, thanks op


    edit, $11 declared value, wasnt stopped at customs


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,339 ✭✭✭alias no.9


    Same here, arrived this morning


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,947 ✭✭✭long_b


    Me three - thanks Suckit

    Don't really get the "Low Power Devices Charging" mode though. I take it whatever device you plug in will just negotiate whatever current it requires?

    Dual micro USB/USB C cable is handy


  • Registered Users Posts: 144 ✭✭icemanjimbo04


    Got mine today also.
    Nice solid device.
    Didnt get any customs bill either.
    Fast charges through both usb ports also.
    Thanks op!


  • Registered Users Posts: 290 ✭✭matzen


    Mine arrived as well. Takes a long time to charge it from 36% - 55% in 3 hrs

    Got mine today as well.

    The low power mode is for devices like the Mi Band which draw a low charging current which is often classed by other packs as a current level which indicates that the device being charged is full and therefore the pack stops charging.

    What charger are you using?


  • Registered Users Posts: 175 ✭✭Briain O Loinsigh


    I got mine today and like the look of it, but would still prefer the aluminium 10k battery for daily use.
    Most times a dart of power will do, this battery is quite large.

    It's almost twice the size of my old 16000 charger, not a major issue, just surprised it's not smaller.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,570 ✭✭✭Fingers Mcginty


    Arriver today also. 25 on the display. ..presume that's 25%...no English instructions. Have it plugged in fur the last 15 mins and it's still reading 25 ???


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,169 ✭✭✭✭ED E


    If its real and you connect it to a QC2/3 charger itll charge itself rapidly.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,339 ✭✭✭alias no.9


    I've tried it on the cigarette lighter fast charger in the car on the way home, on a 2A HP tablet charger (old) and a more recent USB c fast charger. I can't see anything in my arsenal charging it from empty to full in less than 6 hours.

    There actually doesn't seem to be anything in the listing to indicate that it charges via QC. It outputs QC3 but no mention that it itself has a QC3 input.

    The Xiaomi 2C 20000mAh Quick Charge 3.0 Dual USB output version is on sale for €18.55 with code 2cbmib

    Input DC 5V/2A, 9V/2A
    Ouput 2 x DC 5.1V/3.6A, 5.1V/2.4A 9V/2.0A, 12V/1.5A, MAX 18W

    9V is QC. All regular charging is at 5v (USB)

    Also if you see the first page the chart indicates 18W input which is greater than the 12W limit of regular USB.
