So will these likely charge my Chromebook without the constant annoying “low power charger connected, so charging may be unreliable” messages?
Nothing else I have tried has worked since the charging brick that it came with died.
@PhysAssist You should be able to look at the printing on the bottom of the chromebook to see what power input it specifies, and/or look at the specs on the original power supply. It’s likely that you’re getting that low-power message because you’re currently plugging it into, say, a 5 or 9 V PSU that’s only transferring maybe 20-30 watts or so, and the chromebook is expecting 15 or 20 V and 45+ watts. I can only speculate without knowing any of the details about the chromebook or either the original or current PSU.
@user91196732 Yeah, I could’ve written today’s writeup; I listen to podcasts all day unless I’m working on something that really needs my attention. I don’t see the point of watching them. Isn’t there enough streaming to keep people occupied?

You look like a good Joe.
Georgia Red and fun are not mutually exclusive.
Meh.
Can I get two of these 188% models that run at 88W for 88 hours—err, 89 hours and 18 minutes? I’d be willing to pay $5 more.
@dvermilion Ha, willing to bet that’s what it shows briefly upon powering on, to test the display.
@PooltoyWolf please don’t ruin the dream with facts.
@hchavers Lmao!
@dvermilion You lost ten minutes - that should be 89 hours and 28 minutes.
/showme a kid about to discover time travel by plugging 500 grey powerbanks into each other in a ring, one connection to go.
@zippyus Here’s the image you requested for “a kid about to discover time travel by plugging 500 grey powerbanks into each other in a ring, on…”
@mediocrebot @zippyus This looks like YouTuber Styropyro as a kid.
@PooltoyWolf @zippyus 400 CAR BATTERIES!!!
I would love to see him do this type of video with The Slow Mo Guys.
I can’t resist more power!

/showme the First National Bank of Power connected to another one
@phendrick Here’s the image you requested for “the First National Bank of Power connected to another one”
If that built in USB-C cable was just a bit longer, you’d have a perpetual energy machine!
Or a pocket warmer.
No survey today?
It’s finally up, @tweezak and it poses an interesting question.

With you 100% on podcasts - and charging.
