They finally got a unit in your hands, nice! There's no other power bank like it on the market and honestly it's the only power bank I can carry with me even when not using a bag. About the price it really is pricey, but if you can snag one used off Amazon they go for the same price as Anker ones. That's how I bought one, else I would've not.
@@TheStopwatchGod Oh, I'm sure there is a market for it. But claiming it's "a little expensive" is disingenuous when it costs three times more than a slightly bulkier one.
@@adriftatlas Nitecore products are ultra-optimized for size & weight, that's what you you pay for. This battery's originally designed for trail running. They're also ideal for anyone spending extended time on the move, like cyclists on long journeys. A friend of mine cycled from South Japan to Tokyo over 6 months, where every gram counted. As a person that usually walks 30K steps a day on outdoor vacations. I personally understand the need for lightweight gear; especially after a shoulder injury that lasted for 9 months. After that I invested in ultra-light, weather-resistant gear to minimize the load after my shoulder re-hab. To make sure i never overload it again. So yeah, it's like saying "Apple is a little expensive" cause you can get a working smartphone for 1/4th the price. Sure. But people buying Apple buy it for a reason and the price just comes with the territory; same with Nitecore.
@wwjoshdew they have the mophie power boost XL 20,000 mah and for 2023 they have the mophie power station XL 20,000 mah with PD as well as the 2023 mophie power station 10,000 mah with PD the first one is all black and the second and third ones are black and lime green
I bought 2 of samsung's older 10,000 mah powerbanks (with wireless charging) from ebay. $25 and $40. What a freaking game changer! It can super fast charge our samsung phones at 25w, and wirelessly charge my watch (not at the same time though). (EB-U3300). You have the newer samsung wireless charging powerbank if I remember. Is this new one smaller than the new beige samsung 10k mah powerbank?
@@wwjoshdew Not with 40w tho. And even 40w is low by current standards. 65w is becoming standard with multiple phones being engineered to deal with it. Shargeek hasn't minimized weight the way these guys have, but they excel in leaps and bounds when it comes to power delivery.

You made it in the video too. Haha
Yeah! Thanks dude, keep it up. All that lithium you're amassing is an investment nowadays
This is why thru hikers/ backpackers use nitecore battery packs, because they’re much lighter.
Dude, you're right! Weight matters, and that's why I use a scale.
I'm sorry but $65 is highway robbery for a 38Wh power bank that can only do 20W. I'd rather buy a 200g 38Wh power bank for $20.
Suit yourself. There are people who value the smaller size and will pay a premium for it, hence the existence of this powerbank

Gotta wait for a sale....Nitecore is Expensive...
love this new testing you do now with the powerbanks 12:58
Still waiting for your anker solix c300 dc and ac review 😅
I’m waiting for them to come out. I am gonna order as soon as they go live. It got delayed.
this is perfect,
I just need 25k mah with 65w or 85w charging
as I always have 2 batteries one from my sling bag and one for my laptop bag
@wwjoshdew do you think you will ever do any power bank reviews on the Mophie power banks just out of curiosity?
that could be interesting
Do they have anything recent?! All im seeing are older stuff.
@@wwjoshdew im not sure personally
@wwjoshdew they have the mophie power boost XL 20,000 mah and for 2023 they have the mophie power station XL 20,000 mah with PD as well as the 2023 mophie power station 10,000 mah with PD the first one is all black and the second and third ones are black and lime green
Definitely pricey for the capacity. But if you want something small and pocket-able then its a win. More like about the size of a 5000mah option
Nitecore isn’t the brand you’d go for if you wanted value. Best for lightweight.
Also, usb-c only rocks!
Nitecore is a flashlight brand, a quality one too. Theur studf is expensive but will last fur years
I am hooked!! I have a couple of their flash lights in my wish list right now.

I have the newer 10k and 20k, plus one older 20k 25w.
josh pls review anker prime 250w charging station i'm waiting for u.....
It's posted! ;)
Bots everywhere on RUclips nowadays
Ya
@@joe522 I just reported and banned. Sorry about that.
pretty sad isn't it?
@@wwjoshdew it's not your fault Josh. Kind of crazy how less than 20 seconds after you posted the video a bot had commented
@@cooper1095yep. The dead internet theory, starting to feel more real and real everyday
Also why did they need 3 generations of this?
I don't know. But we all benefit from it!! Only USB c is great!!
nitecore is known mainly for their flashlights and battery chargers.
dude. they have some epic flashlights. Super bright!! I have one on my wish list right now.
Just imagine same thing but with 20k mah and a 40W output.. that would be awesome
They have a 20k version!

I'm confused. I'm used to seeing 25w as "samsung super fast charging PPS" 18w over usb c is listed as PPS?
PPS isn’t tied to Super Fast Charging. You can have PPS and no Super Fast Charging support
@@TheStopwatchGod Oh. I see.
How’s the heat?
How much?
Check the link in the description.
My buddy got this...and im the Nitecore Wh@re.....lol..
hell yeah! it's so slim and light. I just love it!!
Bought one last year and my mom stole it from me 😂
@@vktravellog1242 it's so freaking convenient and you don't notice it in your pocket. Can you blame her?! Lol
Needs qi 2charging. Cords are so 2023.
