PD is an open USB standard

IQ, well, Power IQ is Anker thing that combines USB-C fast charging with USB PD to be available on a single USB-C port from the charger

Anyone else reading this thread in Danny DeVito LA Confidential voice or is it just me? -- nm - con_carne Aug 10, 14:49
Do I need to be concerned about "too much" battery to board a plane? -- nm - Mop Aug 10, 13:51 8
- There's a limit of 100 watt/hour per battery pack - JD Aug 10, 13:54 7
  - That's a pain-in-the-ass when batteries are generally marked by mAh. -- nm - Mop Aug 10, 13:55 6
    - If it doesn't say it on the battery then how would they know if it's over or under the limit? -- nm - Krusty Aug 10, 14:00 1
      - Yeah, that kind of arbitrary information is how TSA agents go on power trips. -- nm - Mop Aug 10, 14:03
    - (mAh)*(V)/1000 = (Wh) -- nm - Mop Aug 10, 13:57 3
      - This looks like the right one. Evidently, it comes to 100 Wh *exactly*. -- (link) - Mop Aug 10, 14:00 2
        
        I have something similar that I paid $20 for, holds a week's worth of recharging for my cell about 5x there's also solar ones that recharge themselve -- nm - zeitgeist Aug 10, 14:34 1
        
        The difference between the $20 ones and the $60-$70 ones is the fast charging. -- nm - Mop Aug 10, 15:13
