This is my review of the RavPower RP-PC104 PD USB charger. I was given this charger for my review and opinion but I will try to be as impartial as possible.
This charger won't be for everyone because of probably two reasons, cost and available ports. The cost of this charger is just under $55 so that will eliminate a lot of buyers for that reason alone. The other reason is this charger only having one port and that being a "C" port, because not a lot of people have a C to C cable laying around and it doesn't come with one. I didn't but I was lucky to have two adapters, one that came with my IconX buds and another that came with my Galaxy S9. That's the bad and now for the good.
I'll start with the dimensions and this is a plus for me. It's just over a half inch thick - around 14mm and measures 2.83 x 2.12 inches. It fit nicely behind my nightstand and is great for traveling since the plug folds into slots on the back.
This charger will charge just about anything, so if you want to travel and can manage with just the one port, then this would be the only charger you'll need. It does support Qualcomm QC 3.0 and because it's UL certified plus has built-in safeguards to protect against any damage such as overcharging, overheating and short circuiting, I feel it's safe for my devices. It's voltage specifications are: 100V–240V (85–264V) 50 / 60Hz 1. 25A Output: USB-C PD 3.0 (5V / 3A, 9V / 3A, 12V / 3A, 15V / 3A, 20V / 2. 25A). I have personally tested it on a Macbook Pro, Iphone X and a Galaxy S9 and it performed flawlessly. RavPower lists the charger as being compatible with:
Apple iPhone XR, iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, iPhone X, iPhone 8 Plus, iPhone 8; Samsung Galaxy S9, Galaxy S9 Plus, Galaxy S8, Galaxy S8 Plus, Note 8, Note 7; HUAWEI Mate 20X, Mate 20 Pro, Mate 20, Mate RS, Mate 10 Pro, Mate 10; XIAOMI A2, Mi 8, Mi 8 SE, MIX 2S, MIX2; Google Pixel/Pixel XL, Nexus 6P, Nexus 5X; Honor V10, 10; Apple MacBook (2015), MacBook Pro (2016-2018); ASUS Zenbook 3, Zenbook Flip S etc; Dell XPS 13, XPS 15 etc; Google Pixelbook (2017); Chromebook Pixel (2015) ; Huawei Matebook X Pro; HP EliteBook 8x0 G5, Spectre 13, Spectre Pro 13, Spectre X2, ZBook G5; Razer Blade Stealth.
This charger seems well built and solid and the ability to charge just about anything places it on a completely different standard than other wall chargers and justifies the cost. I probably wouldn't have given this charger a second glance because of the price, but now that it's in my hands I can see justification for the cost and the need for a charger like this.

Before i get to how much i loved this JDB® 18W USB Turbo Travel Quick Charger AC Wall Charger i just want to say how happy i was to see a company include a USB cable that's useable, i own so many wall chargers and every one has the usual 3ft (if your lucky) USB cable but the JDB® 18W USB Turbo Travel Quick Charger AC Wall Charger has a full 6ft USB cable so that was very refreshing to see. Ok on to the good stuff, If your lucky enough to own a device with Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 Technology this unit is a great buy, at just $14.99 its the cheapest unit i own and packed with all the features of a much more expensive unit. Its built with Qualcomm® officially authorized Quick Charge 2.0 Technology which allows your device to charge up to 75% faster than a standard charger if you have a Snapdragon 800 based device such as:Samsung Galaxy S6, S6 Edge, Note 4/Edge, Nexus 6, Sony Xperia Z4, Z4 Tablet, Z3, Z3 Compact, Z3 Tablet Compact, Z2 Tablet, Motorola Droid Turbo, Moto X 2014, HTC One M9, HTC One (M8), HTC Butterfly 2,One Remix (Verizon Mini 2), Desire EYE, LG G Flex2, LG G4, Xiaomi Mi3, Mi4, Mi Note,Asus Transformer T100, Asus Zenfone 2, Yota Phone 2 ,Sharp Aquos Pad,Zeta,Sharp SH01G/02G,Fujitsu Arrows NX,F-02G,F-03G,F-05F,Kyocera Urbano L03,LeTV One Max,Pro,Panasonic CM-1,and more added every day. i own 5 such devices but for review im using my daily driver which is a NEXUS 6 and i love this unit compared to the motorola OEM (stock) charger provided. This unit is much smaller and thats big plus for me as i carry my wall charger at times to other peoples houses and as you can see from pictures this unit is much smaller. Size specs are (2.12 x 1.41 x 0.50 inch) and its also Worldwide 110 - 240V AC input,5V/2A, 9V/2A, 12V/1.5A output so i can use it anywhere i travel and some may not know but unit also charges all non-Quick Charge 2.0 phones and tablets at their normal speed (up to 5 volts / 2A) so JDB has you covered. Lets talk a little safety, JDB® Quick Charge 2.0 Wall Charger is officially certified by UL Ventures on behalf of Qualcomm, multiple built-in safeguards fully protect against over-current, overcharging and overheating for safe and fast charging so no need to worry about safety of your device.In the box you get: Get: JDB® Quick Charge 2.0 Wall Charger with 6ft/2M Metal Sync & Charging Micro USB Cable and full 18 Month Worry-Free Warranty so they also stand by there product.Few testing stats for my NEXUS 6 were as follows, phone was at 1% and in 30min time i was at 38% and at 1 hour i was at 76% then i needed phone so to get to 100% you can add maybe 15min more and my OEM (stock) charger takes well over 2hrs to charge from 1% to full. Overall i loved this unit and highly recommend it to anybody looking for a great Qualcomm Quick Charge unit, easy 5 stars from me. For more info and reviews visit me at http://www.teckgeeks.com/

HI Does anyone know of compatible chargers from reputable Companies. (UK plug style too)
It really does seem the that we have to use a USB 2 port that supports the extra pin, Even QC4.0+ chargers don't seem to get to MI Turbro. ( I test a linkOn charger) The only one that comes close is a charger from WJOY I randomly got from amazon but its not full 33w speed.
Oh Thanks for the thread on compatible cables...
Cheers
Jay
Short field report:
Anker PowerPort1 + QC3: 18 watts
Anker Nano II 45: 12 watts
So far I could only reach the 33 watts with the original charger...
the only other chager that comes close is the WJOY 65w chager, the usb a ports support 22.5 w which actually makes the poco think its using turbo charge, (EDIT) sorry to say the wjoy is no longer for sale

Hi guys,
Could someone tell me which wireless car charger is compatible with this device? I would prefer a magnetic one rather than a slide in one. I am getting confused as to what will or wont work. Any help much appreciated
Xiaomi 20W wireless car charger is nice: https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_9G5Jv5
I have this and I absolutely love it. Charges pretty fast, don't care to look up the specs cause it's a car wireless charger, but I'd say anywhere from 10-15W. OP9Pro.
I use this INIU 15W wireless charging pad in my car. Works fine, and charges the OP9pro at 15W.

www.amazon.ca
I use it plugged into an INIU QC3.0 lighter socket adapter to get the full 15W: https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B08VNWF24S/
Otherwise the in-car USB ports could be used at lower power:
I bought the wireless charger for Vivo x80 pro. Works fine with original 80w charger & original cable. It stays cool with the fun spinning.
Works Great, just like 50w wireless charger worked on Oneplus 9 pro, 10 pro & 30w on 8 pro. I really miss & want that. Now i got it.
The most important thing is that saves usb type C port. Second it charges Fast.
The Greed companies who are full of BS, reached to spectacular speed of 10-15 w max !
Looks god too.
