USB C PD Dock

Just had my Kidigi USB C dock break that I was using with my Nexus 5X. I am struggling to find any docks that have USB C and Power Delivery. Has anyone found one? It's not really important to have the PD because I only use this charger for at night when I'm sleeping but it would be nice to have if it's available. Thanks!

I am very happy with my Seifio USB C dock, but they have been out of stock for quite a while. https://www.seidioonline.com/product/seidio-desktop-charging-cradle-type-c/

Can someone clarify power delivery? I'm getting mixed results.
Are you looking for a dock that will charge your phone? What's the purpose of being USB and not charging?

FYI, I just received my new phone, Seidio Surface case and holster. I had the same setup on my original Pixel XL and it worked fine. However, for some reason the bottom of the Pixel 2 XL case is thicker, causing the USB C port to be recessed too far to connect to the plug on my Seidio USB C dock.
I will be contacting them for suggestions, as the two Seidio products should be compatible with each other.

USB C charging for the Nexus 6P was 15w. Power Delivery for the Pixel and Pixel 2 are 18w. Some laptops and macbooks can charge at even a higher rate

I cannot believe that USB type C PD has been out for years and there is not ONE usable dock.

I just bought this one, came in yesterday used it couple times now says it's RAPID CHARGING. seems to be charging well mind you it's only been one day.

I've never used a dock, but I can't imagine buying a dock like this where all of the phone weight is propped up on the charging port. Those things aren't welded in like a car trailer... they snap all the dang time. I am currently in the market for a USB-C dock, but am specifically looking for one that has a "rest" for my phone.
I've seen a couple out there, but one is Samsung and the other looks identical, but with a different name.
It seems we just need to create our own and we'll sell millions...

I ended up buying this dock. It's great so far even though it doesn't fast charge. I just have it on my night stand so I don't really care about fast charging there. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B071HFM217/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_ycgdAb6TYTBSR

Looks like this one is PD and even if it isn't at least it has a USB C connection and not an attached USB A cable.

Doesn't seem worth it. I've been burned too many times on Amazon with trusting their reviews. Just basically threw away $8 on a screen protector that ended up being complete garbage however had a 4.5 star review.

One of the reviews shows the connector broke after a few uses. Why are there no quality docks out there? Everything is so dang cheap. I'd spend $50 if I knew it would be a solid dock that I could use for a long time.

As theBeachBoy said, that's not a dock, so it's not what people in this thread are looking for. But if anyone is looking to buy a multiport charger that supports PD, I've owned that Anker one for a year. I have it setup near an older iOttie car mount that I use as a dock on my desk, and it works great.

USB-C power bank that can fast charge P2XL?

Hi,
Can anyone recommend a decent power bank that has usb-c to usb-c and can charge the P2XL rapidly like the wall charger?
Thanks

Main problem with those is they're all huge 20k mAh banks. If he wants that capacity then okay but the one I recommended is compact yet can still charge just as fast as the wall charger because the phone has been capped at 10.5 watts anyway. Although, post 8.1 update it has been ever so slightly faster for the first 60 minutes. I don't have meter readings but my percentages show some improvement.

The Aukey I linked is cheaper at $29.99 and does charge at the same rate as the OEM wall charger.

Just got it and I can confirm that it charges rapidly. This thing is the size of a Nexus 5 but a bit thicker. It definitely is heavy but charging it is done thru the same usb-c port with which you charge your phone.
Really nice design too with nonslip PC type coating.

I was waiting for the soon-to-be released Anker PowerCore+ II 10.000 which is supposed to feature PD and USB-C but unfortunately has no release date yet. But now, learning about the Auckly power bank, I tend to opt for this one. Any concerns?

Seems to support PD for 18W. See specs from the device in picture above. I don't see a reason not to buy this. $39 is not a bad deal.

I guess the only things are the Pixel 2 XL is capped at 10.5w still. That may not be true anymore with Android 8.1 as it seems to be just a little faster than prior to the update. Also, Aukey's is $10 cheaper.

is anyone using the ZMI 10 from Xiaomi?

I got the RavPower 20100mAh (PD version). It works.
Worst I can say is that it's unwieldy (slightly bigger than the phone itself), but all of the PD 20k+ power banks seem to be...

My charger broke can anyone recommend where to get a replacement please. Google apparently sells them for at least 30 pounds. Can anyone please recommend a cheaper alternative which does work in terms of fast charging please?

Not all type c provides fast charg it needs to be type c to c also capable to provide above 15w (5v * 3A)

Yes this. Although, my Nexus 5X one which is 5v3a does fast charge pretty much the same as the stock Px8el 2 XL one. The Pixel 2 XL has been restricted and doesn't take advantage of it's 9v2a charger rating.

You either just paid or are in the process of paying off a near $1,000US (£750) device. Do you really want to risk damage to your home or the device because you want to save a pound?
Spend the £30 or so and get the correct charger.

Have you tried asking Google for a replacement charger under warranty?

True but any 15w USB power adapter and a USB-C cable should do the job just fine. It's never been an issue for me.

Not all USB-C cables are the same. The one we need has to be at least USB-C 2.0. The effects from using the wrong spec cable are unknown to me, but I'm not about to find out either. The potential for damaging the device is why I spent the extra money and got an Anker 6' cable that matches the specs of the 3' cable included with my charger.

Some good info here.

Yh for sure as long as type a to c can deliver 15w it will do the job but not all type a to c can thats why i recommend type c to c for its capability.

I always go with either Goggle directly or the Anker ones that have PD enabled for faster charging.

Portable fast chargers?

Any compatible yet? My old samsungportable fast charger bank from my s8 doesn't work with my pixel 3...

I use the Tronsmart Trim, it's PD 3.0 and seems to do the job pretty well.

How?

I looked it up. You will need find a board that has usb end that can output 5v 5amps. Then you need find batteries that can push 30watts and wire them in series directly to this board. That's what basically what power banks are under the shell. The other option is get a much bigger power bank for like 100 dollars that you can plug into

Hmmm explain this like your 5 and have don't have google? No
But I will point you in the right direction. Google "3s 18650 powerbank" Use the power adapter guts and a 3s battery balencer. And there you go. If your going small get high discharge 18650 like the brown LG H2. Also wanna be careful of fakes they are as bad or worse than the micro SD card knock offs. Good luck have fun!

Noo. Waiiit.
Go to Amazon. Type in "powerbank for Chromebook."
Chromebook type C chargers should, whether wall or portible chargers/power bank , will give a very fast charge as well. I used my Chromebook type C charger all the time for my Note 9. It charged it like three times faster than Samsung OEM charger. Even with fast charging turned off.
I expect any Chromebook charger will do the same for my OneOlus 7 pro.
Build one???? ?

I've got a Baseus, 20000 mah, 18w max, 3a max, QC 3.0, PD. Power Bank have digital display.
I use the red USB-2 (QC 3.0, PD), that it's described to have 3a, if you use it alone. But it charges with 1,3a. In Usb-1, the normal one same, 1,3a .
Price 28.81$
