  The usbc barrel adapter can power anything that demands less than 100w. Using it daily with a dell laptop and a 45w gan charger.

  These are great but one problem with those sellers is they’ll completely change the product being sold so one good review doesn’t mean you won’t get something more cheaply made from the same listing later.

  For the wireless HDMI extenders, the answer is projector usage ;) if you have a two digit cable run going from our presenter table through the floor, wall and ceiling to the projector, those are awesome.

  We need an episode where you show us how you find these things haha. I have tried numerous times to just go find random &apos;cool stuff&apos; on ali express and just get greeted with pages of nonsense. Unless i search for exactly what i want, i won&apos;t stumble across any of this stuff

  Those USB-C adapters will also perform the ID function on Dell and HP laptops. Most Dells will not charge if you simply give them the 19V they are looking for. It does a handshake with 1-Wire EEPROM to define charger capabilities. &nbsp;Those adapters will emulate that EEPROM. &nbsp; This will tell the laptop how much power to attempt to pull, and if it pulls more than the USB-C charger can deliver, the charger will cycle, as you experienced. &nbsp; Ive used it on a few. A smaller Inspiron that takes a 45W charger works fantastic. &nbsp;A big Precision workstation that uses a 180W charger will not charge the battery while turned on, as you experienced. &nbsp;I actually mounted one inside the Inspiron so I can just plug and USB-C PD charger into it. &nbsp;Very useful for having to switch between a MacBook Pro and a Windows computer.

  Good rule of thumb: &nbsp;if it looks too good to be true it probably is, but if it looks like a bargain, it probably is.

  I&apos;m civil engineer who has a bit of experience with these two laser tapes. Both are great to work indoors but the Bosch one is way better at outside work cause it has a stronger laser pointer that doesn&apos;t get faded easily by sunlight. Also it seems more heavy duty and some people say (not me) that the AAA batteries are more reliable in field work because if it runs out of juice you can just change the batteries and keep going. In my experience the rechargeable cheaper one lasts way more than you need in a full shift of work, it is cheaper to maintain, easier to carry around just in case and more environmentally friendly. That is, the expensive one only outcasts the cheaper one if you need to measure great distances at direct sunlight.

  The problem of USB C laptop charger adapter is that most USB C power supplies trigger overload protection when total power riches maximum allowed. That is why you wasn&apos;t able to charge your powerful laptop, as the power to charge was about 65w and only 35w was left to power the laptop itself.<br><br>Anyway the adapter can be used to power fully charged laptops (in the case of extending battery life from power bank) as fully charged laptops will drain the energy from the powerbank first (as charged batteries does not require power) then after the power bank emptied will use the battery.
