kurtshProps to Southwest Airlines for having the forethought to provide 60W USB-C directly on their newer 737 flights.It's much easier to retrofit planes with higher power USB & I don't rly need 3-prong AC most of the time if I have USB-C Power Delivery for my laptop & phone.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/swa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#swa</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/usb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#usb</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/powerdelivery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#powerdelivery</a>

Ansgar HegerfeldGibt es hier Leute, die sich mit Problemen bei <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/USB" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#USB</a> PD auskennen? 🔌 Ein <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/Smartphone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Smartphone</a> wird an einem 65W USB-C-PD-Netzteil (9V/3A) problemlos mit per Multimeter gemessenen konstanten 3A bei 9V geladen - soweit gut, ist das Maximum des Gerätes.Selbes Gerät und selbes Kabel an einer 100W <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/Powerbank" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Powerbank</a> (ebenfalls 9V/3A möglich): schaltet korrekt auf 9V hoch, aber die Stromstärke kommt nicht auf über ~1,1A. Auch an einer zweiten kleineren Powerbank (9V/2A) bekomme ich im Ergebnis maximal ziemlich genau 10W bei 9V raus 🤔 Powerbanks waren natürlich voll und das Smartphone auf einem Ladestand, dass es das Maximum von 27W aufnehmen könnte.Kann man irgendwie herausfinden, woran es hängt? Oder ist das einfach eine zufällige Inkompatibilität? Die Powerbanks liefern sonst auch deutlich mehr als 10W, wenn auch bei höheren Spannungen.<a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/Elektronik" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Elektronik</a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/PowerDelivery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PowerDelivery</a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/FediHelp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FediHelp</a>
