[New Release] PowerWave 15 Pad

I’m still wondering whether or not there’s a cooling fan inside this one.

@AnkerOfficial?!

Hadn’t thought about that, and it would be good to know.

Haha. I doubt there is cooling fan small enough to fit in there. This definitely looks like a nice product and the design probably looks right now. :smile:

I am glad anker reduced the size of charging pad to limit the possibility of placing it on the pad but outside the charging zone. It has happened to me with the round 5w charging pad. I keep my phone on it thinking it is charging only to realize after 30 mins that i did not place it in the middle of the pad. @AnkerOfficial

You have clearly never seen the size of the fan that is inside the powerwave pad then, yes it’s very slim

I do like the look of that.

Unfortunately the iPhone XS can’t support 15W wireless charging or I would be tempted, but seeing as I’m getting a wireless charger for Xmas (I know it’s an anker one just not sure which one as the support team suggested 1 to my gf lol) I’ll just have to enjoy it vicariously through forum members posts lol

Don’t fret, most phones say they can support 15w wireless charging but in reality testings have shown that charging times didn’t change from 10w to 15w so at this point it’s just a future proof pad. Once it becomes really effective will it be worth having

Wow man you took it apart :astonished:
That fan is really small. Interesting.

The Huawei Mate Pro 20 I think is compatible and I must admit I like the fact that you can use it to charge another phone.

Compatible yes, so is my Galaxy S9+…but like I said in real world testing there was no difference in charge time between 10 w and 15 w charging pads

Its a great way to understand how things work and the quality of material

I was doing a comparison video for my YouTube channel, of what sets apart a wireless charger from the expensive to the cheap ones. Sadly half my footage got deleted and I never got to finish it because a few of the charging pads I had, either had to be returned or I broke them opening them up

@elmo41683 Can you tell if it has a fan based on these internal images from FCC?

Oh man that unfortunate. I would have loved to see the tear apart video comparison.

That’s better, there’s no fan internally. If there was there would be a plastic plates separating the coil and fan as seen above in the one from the power wave.
