@alose@ColeSloth I totally agree. I also need you to deposit 0.05 bitcoin to my wallet at 23465283452354.832458345 . If you don’t do this within 24 hours of this post, then I will have to post that Anker video of you picking your nose.
I was curious, so asked Google AI.
In case anyone else is curious:
The AUKEY Spark Mega 27600mAh 140W Power Bank (PB-Y63) weighs approximately 650 grams (22.93 oz). This high-capacity, fast-charging power bank is designed for laptops and mobile devices, with dimensions measuring approximately 160 x 58 x 47 mm.
Uh, is it wise marketing to include the words “mega” and “spark” in the model name of something with a lithium-ion battery?

Watt and Watt Hours are different measurements. The 140W is the output, meaning the output is high enough to power some hungry electronics like laptops. The Wh is the Watt Hours, which is the size of the battery. Typically, (at least in the USA) carry-on luggage can have up to 160Wh (or roughly 43,243 mAh).
It’s likely a decent bank for the price, they mostly are, but the chance it’s actually 27aH is 0%. That’s like half a car battery…if it were real ebikes would look a lot different.
@bathsheba The actual amount of power stored in Amp-hours will vary depending on the voltage of the device, so they’re not directly comparable between different contexts. I think these power banks are 3.7V, which puts this at around 100 Wh of power storage. A 12V car battery at 50Ah stores 600 Wh of power.
@bathsheba The 27aH is a common number you will see on power banks, it’s just under the limits for airlines.
Yeah, 27aH at 3.7V is quite different from 27aH at 12V

I saw the first pic, parsed it as 100.1, and thought “cool, a power bank with an FM radio”
Aukey isn’t sold on Amazon because they were caught paying for reviews and banned from the platform.
@ColeSloth still seems better than Anker spying on their customers and leaving their video open to everyone.
@ColeSloth Aukey is TOTALLY GREAT! I love Aukey. They are the next best thing to butter. That’s why this item is shaped like a stick of butter.

@cfg83 Here’s the image you requested for “Anthropomorphized goat named “cfg83” getting a kickback from a shady fellow in the shadows.”

Sorry, but I gotta pay the bills.

@phendrick uh-oh. Did I step on someone’s trademark toes?
Just bought one as it says ok for airlines.
Then I looked at the airline:
Non-mobility devices (i.e., portable electronic devices) battery limit is 100 wh for lithium ion, or 2 grams lithium metal content.
@johnnyflet Hmmm.

I hope this helps!
I’ve got a couple of Aukey products, they’ve been good so far.
/8ball Do I need a mega, ultra, super-duper, groovy, fab fast-charging powerbank.
Outlook not so good
