You hit the nail on the head!! USBC power is all over the place, it's a mess and nothing (on the cables) is labeled. Labeling on adapters is hit or miss as well. So you have no (reliable) way to identify it. And don't get me started on the data transfer rates..... LOL Great info thank you very much

Also remember to turn off Snow melt as this can cause a bootloop on start-up as the heater is always tested in this mode...

Nicely explained! This issue is not widely known and should be better advertised on the products

Great info - thank you!! I knew I needed a higher wattage but didn’t realize an adapter would fit the bill. I was going to buy another full length cable, you just saved me money! 😊

This is an excellent example of why and how I have been disappointed with charging my equipment via USB3. I recently was on vacation and forgot my regular adapter. I purchased another, and it couldn't charge anything I had brought with me. <br>Thank you for this video!<br>I feel more educated today! 😊

Electric power is a minefield of uncertainty at best for most - so it is nice to have it explained a/w the demonstration which helps hammer the message home a bunch👍<br><br>To solve my Mini's power solution I bought a 15 foot extension with 3 connectoion choices at the power end <br>cigarett socket<br>USB c<br>barrel connector<br><br>I successfully used all three in various power sources in my self built van...

Thank you for a great informative video! I plan on using a Milwaukee chainsaw battery to power my Starlink Mini and this helped understand some nuances!
