Annual Mystery Prize Box Speculation Thread

Hey @kumar.sachin
There is no charge mode as such, i just plugged mine into the charger and off it went.
The LED light should flash while charging, did yours?
Have you tried another charger just to be sure?

Actually @Chiquinho and @kumar.sachin
I haven’t got a USB male to male lead so cant test for you.
@Chiquinho maybe time to pick up a Atom III Slim?

Yes that is exactly what I did and the first 2 leds kept blinking till morning. I removed the charging and it only showed 2 leds.
I’ll try another charger when I’m back from my trip in 10 days.
Thanks for helping :+1:

I charged my Powercore using a Samsung charger. It already had 2 LED lights and it took around 2-3 hours to fully charge

I tried charging with an USB - USB-C cable because the charger I used has no USB-C output.
I will try another charger with USB-C output and use that USB-C USB-C cable.

I think its a question of the cable.
It’s OK with the Motion + but not with that pb.

Anker didn’t check with me on delivery address so I’m not united with my (generous) gift, but I do own a 10000 PD and a 10000 PD Slim.

The 10000 PD Slim does NOT charge of an IQ3 charger, but it does charge off a PD charger. If I connect 10000 PD Slim to IQ3 a green light comes on then all lights off.

I also noticed some Anker Type C cables have short connector and finnicky to work reliably.

So if charging is slow, ensure it is connected to a 18W PD charger, not IQ3 charger and try different cable.

Hey @k_pug2003
I ordered these which along with the lead that came with the PowerCore covers my charging needs

I know, ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!

Now, I must say that I did change my prediction from PowerPort III Duo to PowerDrive III Duo after @ndalby made a good point about regional availability, but MY GOODNESS!

As with all of my posts, I had NO “Insider Info” whatsoever when making my guesses.

WOW!
