There's a lot of confusing around charging retro handhelds and Ide like to give my input. Retro handhelds need retro chargers. Stick to slow chargers and you'll be okay. Always match the voltage and try to match or exceed the amperage. Fast chargers are not all created equal. They all have different protocols and are made for specific devices. Even iPhone 15 can be damaged by the wrong usb c fast charger. Look up some videos. If it can happen to iPhone it will happen to a budget Chinese retro handheld. Stick to slow chargers usb A to C for the cable. Just be safe.

Hey guys, would you guys like to see more testing done with different chargers? Maybe switch chargers, samsung chargers, apple, etc?
Curious about using a samsung adaptive fast charger with a usb A 2.0 to C cable. The brick should be limited to 2.0 charging right? My fast charging phone and my non fast charging tablet seem to work fine apart from not fast charging the phone. I'm most likely gonna use my electric couch's usb port instead, since it's been charging my GPD XD well for a while now.
Brick info. Mine is australian if that matters:
MODEL: EP-TA200
INPUT: 100-240 V - 50-60 Hz 0.5 A
OUTPUT: 9.0 V DC 1.67 A or 5.0 V DC 2.0 A
@HyperSonic1999orJTH It has a 9V lane. It could be fine, but the only way to know for sure is to test it. Plug it in and stay next to it to see if the device gets too hot. Charge it at your own risk, though.
@@HyperSonic1999orJTH I have the same adapter and I'm now hysterically changing them back and forth because I connected it to a SUPER fast charger and it was charging slowly, I have the same charging with the same characteristics, did it work for you?
@@GentleDuck I didn't risk it, ended up finding an older non fast charging samsung adapter that I used for an older device. EP-TA50HWE is the model name and it charges the device from 0 to 100 in around two and a half hours or less.
So I am going to share some info about batteries (LiPo in particular). Im an RC car enthusiast for about 10 years and in the last few years we use LiPo batteries almost exclusively for powering the cars. While charging LiPo batteries the rule is, that you shouldn't exceed 1C charging rate (e.g. 3300mAh in RG35XX+ charge max 3.3A). If you charge with lower current, you will get more charging cycles from the battery in the future. What can kill the battery is charging with higher Voltage than the battery itself. So propably RG35XX+ can't deal with higher voltage chargers, but dont quote me on that, I haven't seen the internal circuitry.
I believe you I'll do what you say
Good stuff Javi, as a previous employee of a giant tech repair facility. We always recommended using oem charging cables and charging bricks according to device specifications. If not, at least name brand charging cables and charging bricks according to device specifications. If a device doesn’t have an oem charging cable and charging brick, then we always recommended name brand charging cables and charging bricks according to device specifications. But, when it’s all said and done at the end of the day, it’s your device, do as you please and thank you for the repeated business and keeping me employed. 😊👊
A well done video. Thank you so much Javi for this.
since i got my rg35xx plus i have only used my desktops usb 3 port to charge it using the cable that came with it ,no issues so far the battery doesn't get hot at all ,it takes around 1.5 to 2 hours to get to 100%.
i am glad i watched videos and reddit post before receiving my device otherwise i would suffered the same fate.
thanks for making these videos they have really helped me setting up my device ❤
Edit- takes 3 to 4 hours to charge
A rather insightful and crucial video debunking various rumors. Excellent work!
Hey, I saw your comment on reddit getting downvoted to hell. Im sorry, man. I hate reddit sometimes. I know you're just trying to help people.
@@JaviPlayRetro I don't mind. This topic seems to be a touchy one for many, as I was aware before. Some people just think they know better. That's why I didn't engage too much with the guy on the content of your video; he wouldn't have been convinced anyway. I genuinely find your video excellent as it is. You took the effort to illustrate the differences through examples, such as how a China handheld gets significantly hotter with the wrong charger. You even used a measuring device to make these "invisible processes" visible. This dude on Reddit knows that these are valuable additional insights into things that many people have always wondered about, like "what exactly happens if I use the wrong charger?". However, he preferred to stir up trouble, and others jumped on the bandwagon. I don't care about that kind of stuff. He complains about others, thinks he knows it all, but would never take the initiative to upload his own video on the topic. Just a typical internet loudmouth.
@-dAtA-TRoN- Yeah, man, Reddit is always like that. It's like a hivemind. If you have an unpopular opinion, forget about .
Im considering actually frying my RG35XX for science. Im thinking about getting a temperature reader and then hooking it up the fast charger and just leaving plugged in to see what happens. At worst, it'll explode or brick my device or, at best, it'll just get extremely hot like it did before. I think it would make a good video but the cost is really high. I love my RG35XX Plus.
@@JaviPlayRetro Hahaha, while that would undoubtedly be thrilling, it might be prudent to save such antics until you've reached the hundred-thousand subscriber milestone here on RUclips. Like you already said the cost is quite high, and it's a bit of a pity for such an awesome little device. You could consider just giving it away. Just imagine the hours of joy you could bring to someone else with it 😃!
Thank you so much man, I’m about to get the handheld and you definitely saved me. Not gonna lie, at first I was thinking your initial video’s tip was bullshit but I see you’re serious and give good advice.
Javi FYI here are some formulas to demystify the charging conundrum. FYI I’m a retired Power Plant Engineer.
Watts= Volts x Amps. Ambernic states 7.5 watts so the math 7.5watts divided by 5 volts= 1.5amps.
So only use any USB chargers of 7.5 watts or less.
Lithium Polymer batteries charge best and have the longest life expectancy when charged at or below specified temps. Also only charge to 80% as this will greatly extend life expectancy. Also try not to let battery go below 20%.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge!!!
This I why I always use the old school charging bricks with two USB ports, one with 2.1A for my phone, and one with 1A for my portable devices and controllers. But something that I've been wondering: Is it safe to use 1A for charging GBA, NDS, DSi, and 3DS with an USB cable? A video testing with these devices would be nice to see.
Another good vid thanks bro ❤
this is really a great info
Really appreciate your work not only ,you raised importance of safety cocnern and also promote the danger of ignoring these things, including me i been stupid to ignore these devices are from china.
Retro gaming need retro chargers. Got it!
I'm unsure if it was because I removed the sd card at one point or if it's because I used an Alaska Airlines' in-flight charging port. Not sure if I fried my battery or if it's a software issue. I even flashed the OS and reinstalled everything. No battery symbol appears when I charge now. Tried 5 cables and 3 adaptors. Nothing.
If you didn't know, the reason not all USB C to USB C cables work is that these companies cut costs by omitting a singular $0.05 resistor. That alone should show how far they'll go to save money lol
Can I use my powerbank with trickle charging to charge my device for low watt charging?
Just bought my 35xxh ..I’m currently using “Anker PowerPort Mini Dual Port Wall Charger”.. on Amazon they call it a fast charger but reading the specs on the plug it says 5v 2.4amp.. so I should be fine .. I’m using Ugreen magnetic adapter cable tried higher powered 20w chargers before i watched this vid my 35xxh simply did not want to charge I did notice it’s a cable thing even anker cables won’t work only the provided cable and the ugreen one,,if my current adapter is ok I’m going to keep using it need to grab a couple IKEA 5volt chargers those are good quality and very affordable
Much appreciated.
Battery may explode in the fire means ... if the battery is exposed to fire it may explode. Meaning heat will make the battery swell until failure which will release under pressure and generate enough heat to self ignite with "run away" battery.
I know I was poking fun at the poor English.
Hello, The voltage has something related with the charging?
Where i live we use 220v i charged it around 1 hour with a 5v a2 charger but it doesn't turn on but it turns the charging light.
I even flashed the sd card with stock os again and i still not turning.
Hello from Poland. I use chromecast 3rd generation power adapter brick which is the same specs charger than You use in the video 5v and 1amp. Have a good day bro
Thanks for the info Javi Big help, btw for the battery life what percent should i charge my battery? and why my rg35xx still on green light while at low battery percentage how can i charge my battery in the right time bcoz sometimes i dont even know im low battery already while playing? recommendations will be helpful thanks
The light indicator is supposed to turn red when it's at low battery. If you see it turns red, you should charge it. Also, I noticed the charging light doesnt turnoff on mine when it's fully charged, so just check up on it.
@@JaviPlayRetro thanks javi im just confuse whenever i saw my battery indicator on screen low thats why i cant wait to for the red light im just a new owner of 1 xx and 1 plus and im still memorizing the devices glad i found your channel thank you very much for your videos
I charged mine whit a 5V 1.2A( is this lower than 1.5A?) but on the second charging session it got super hot(the charger not the console) so i decided to charge it whit a 5V 2.0A charger, did not notice any problem but i am not sure if i understood witch of this tow charger is better ..hehe sorry.., Can you please clarify this for me?, Muchas gracias!.
Look, ma! I'm on TV! 📺
Going back, that pinned comment in the Tips video about someone frying their device made me feel that Anbernic either gave the wrong Voltage/Ampere information, or their device doesn't behave like a typical one and pulls power beyond the stated 1.5A which will indeed lead to overheating, device damage, and possibly even a fire.
I only use a 5V/2A charger on mine and never saw any issues, probably because the 0.5A difference wasn't enough to cause problems.
Im planning to use a 5v 2a charger for mine too. Is everithing ok with your device a month lkater?
@@kennY_72 I haven't been using it much since I'm still waiting for custom firmware, but it currently looks fine to me.
@@FloatingSunfishthere is any custom firmwares yet? I though there was already lol
@@kennY_72The only non-beta custom firmware I see is MinUI, but I haven't looked too deeply into it.
Everything else is still in beta last I checked, and I'm personally waiting for Garlic OS.
The official charger for the Nintendo Switch Lite is ideal to use. If you’ve not got one of those the block from an iPhone is absolutely fine with the cable it comes with, it might be a little slower but it’s negligible anyway
That’s in the UK by the way
That's great to know! Thanks 😊
Im using those old iphone chargers for my plus and while it does take a while to charge the battery, it doesn't heat up the battery.
Those are 5V1A they're fine to use. The generate next to no heat.
So i just bought an Rg35xx and thank god i saw your video or else i would've done the same thing. Could you please tell me if i could use a charger which has dual output reasongs of 5v 2a, 9v 2a (idek why it has 2 readings tho) ?
Not with these cheap handhelds.
yeah i just got a rg 351v and had it charging it turn on but its saying low battery voltage level 3.528v i had it charging overnight
I charge my console by connecting the Type C cable that came in the box to my computer's USB port. Is that safe?
100 👍 The battery may expand the SD cards storage capacity when in the fire
15:27 Cat owner spotted. Great video, helped a lot.
Just to make sure, I managed to get a changing cube 5V≈2A, it was from an old cellphone, the only difference I see is that just at the right of the output info it says exactly (5V≈2A 10.0W) the 10.0W doesn’t matter?
Another question, so the cable it doesn’t matter from what it is(except the cheap one that it comes with) as long as the cube has the V and A between 5 and 2? The fast charger is the cable or the cube?
Volts * Amps = Watts. 5*2=10. The charging brick dictates charging speed. As long as you aren't using a garbage cable and very high watt charger, you are going to be fine. This mostly applies just to these cheap Chinese electronics as most quality ones will have internals that prevent the device from pulling more watts than what the device can safely handle. There have been issues with RG35XXH and SP being damaged by these fast charges.
Can i use an apple charger that is 5V 1A with an anbernic rg353v
great stuff ! I've got a 5V 1A charger and a 5V 2A one, which one is better to use ?
Use 5V 2A. That will deliver proper charging in less time.
What brand are you using since I am planning to buy one. The 5V 2A one.
I live in the UK, it's an Asda (supermarket) charger. I finally found a Samsung charger that has 1.55A so I'm using this one now.
In all fairness TECHNICALLY it should be ok to use a fast charger. Fast chargers usually default to 5v or don't output anything at all when charging if the device isnt telling it how many volts needs during the handshake. This obviously cannot be assumed for all though. The fact that these come with a USB C - USB A cable makes me think that that device isnt truly using usb c protocol, and is actually just a usb A pinout with a USB A adaptor on, meaning it doesnt support PD and will just take whatever it is plugged into provided the charger allows it. Personally I'd say just get a higher quality USB C - A cable so you know for sure that you're not getting higher outputs (i think only phone companies like Xiaomi and Oneplus utilise high voltages through Usb A, Old samsung chargers do too, but they do support 5v low amperage in my experience when there isnt a handshake for greater power draw), and use your computer or one of the an older Usb A charger like ones from Apple iPads because they dont support fast charging.
The safest thing to do is just use a slow charger that just has a 5V lane. No 9V no 12V. Then you can ensure nothing will go wrong because it's not possible to draw higher voltages by accident or if the device miscommunicates with the charger. The software on these devices are notoriously bad, and I wouldn't be surprised to see them not being programmed to limit voltage.
Having a pure charging cable with built in wattage meter can help give a rough read how much the device is taking in. Unplug when it goes well beyond 7.5W.
Yup, "technically" you are correct.
My quality PD GAN charger with quality USB A To C will not charge my new Anbernic 35XX SP unless the device is *Powered On.* Strange eh? 🤔
If powered *OFF* it won't take a charge huh? 😕
I've since switched to 5V-1.5A to be safe.
Just use the included type c cable and 5v 1.5a charger and you won’t have a problem im still using the rg35xx typec cable no issues at all your not suppose to use other type c cable some of them has higher amp
what about an adaptive fast charger? I have one that outputs 9v-1.6a or 5v-2a
I had the same question, but he showed at the beginning that he used one like that with multiple V and A, and he said his device reheated and didn’t recommended it, what I was thinking, and I myself don’t know about this, is that probably what happens is that the charger uses the higher V and A from where you are connecting it, so if the cube is receiving more than 5V=2A and he can receive more because it can adapt it will output the higher voltage, so probably is not recommended because of that, because how i think it works is that the Voltage is the amount of electricity the device receives and the Amps are the speed that the device receives the V, so even of your charger is 1.6A but it has a 9V it will damage your device because the device only handles 5V at the time and receiving 9V even if it is 1.6A it can warm up the battery
Are iphone chargers ok?
I want to use an old iphone 8 charger
Really phone hager 5v 1,5 plug am i safe was going to order a dock for miyoo mini plus's
5v 2.1a samsung Can I use a charger? Is it safe ?
I managed to get a 5V2A of brick. I have the RG353M, am not sure why but when I charge it, it is hot to touch like both of the brick and the device. It is like I am nervous to touch it since it is hot. Like it is not normal hot. Is this okay?
whats the general lifespan of such handled, or how can we keep them good now as you say about charging are there any other things to keep in, like limit to play or anything else
If you get a good one, and you take good care of it. Use a right charger, don't drop it, or damage it. It can last you a long time. I can't say for sure. Some of these are very cheaply made and do die all of a sudden. I do have some that are over 2 years old though.
@@JaviPlayRetro great thanks
I usually use the stock usb-a to usb-c and plug it (MM+) into ac with those apple 30w usb-a female to ac. Is that good?
The stock cable may be rated to be 5V2A like the anbernic stock cable. So it may be fine.
I plug mine in and and it does not show it’s charging. I’ve tried using my ps5 usb c port and I’ve tried a wall adapter. Am I supposed to do something special to charge it?
My RG35XX screen is broken after having it for 6 months. The screen was flickering few times before it broken.
Some said it's because I used wrong charger. But the charger that I used was 5v 1.5 A.
So is it the charger or my unit was bad?
Not the charger. Definitely defective unit. Maybe open it up and see if the screen is loose.
I’ve been looking online for an answer and I hope you have it. I have a powerbank which has 2 USB A ports and everyone says USB A is safe but on the PB it says that the output for these ports is 4.5V=5A, 5V=4.5A, 9V=2A, 12V=1.5A is it safe to use it or not?
I would just use the USB A ports. There's no need for extra power anyway as the device can't use it. Also be on the safe side in case the device miscommunicates with the power bank.
The idea is that the output I listed is specifically for the USB A ports and this is what makes me worry that if they miscommunicate it will receive higher voltage but most powerbank nowadays come with multiple voltage output ports
Stron charge whiped my sd card got a tiny cabull with it
I use power bank changing my RG35XX Plus it's works.
Don't use faster power bank.
Hi guys! Can i use 5V 1A charger?
Can i charge the rg405v wuth a 33w charger - 5v - 3a ? I dont want to kill the batery
I don't know about 33 W as that is pretty high, but 5 volts at 3 Amps is only 15 W. Many charging bricks will tell their total charging capacity so if it has 2 different ports that each charge at 15 Watts it will say it's a 30 watt charger for example, but nothing plugged into it is going to get 30 watts. I have been using a 5v/3a usb c to usb c on my RG35XX (2022) since I got it and it has been fine but in hindsight it's probably not the best now that I see how cheaply the internals on these are made and they don't have overcharge protection.
What’s a good charger for ANBERNIC RG556 I recently bought It
look at the back. all information written
Just get the additional charger that matches the recommended power level. its a headache and extra money but hey 2 sd cards , one charger to keep the chinese gadget safe and working isnt that bad 😅
My Brand New *Anbernic 35XX SP* will not charge at all unless powered on with Micro SD card inserted.
I used a high quality expensive 65W GAN charger with high quality USB A to C.
I also tried a USB A TO C 5V-2A and again, would not charge unless the device is *POWERED ON!*
Any thoughts?
Dont use fast chargers. Use a regular slow charger 5V2Amp
@@JaviPlayRetroWOW! Fast reply! Thanks Javi!
But any thoughts about it needing to *POWERED ON* to charge.
It WILL NOT charge if turned off.
Even with 5V-1.5A high quality chargers and A To C Cables.
@janX9 It shouldnt completely power on. Its supposed to turn on the battery charging screen and then turn off and a hold an orange charging light. Are you on Stock OS?
@@JaviPlayRetro yes stock OS brand new device right out of the box. Fixed now.
I think the SD was slightly corrupted.
At first the screen would not stay on either. Just 1 second at a time. It would shut off, of press power button, screen on for 1 second then off.
I couldn't tell if it was a software issue or the magnets in the lid were messed up. But the first 2 days I had it, it was screwed up.
I moved the SD to another Anbernic and since other handhelds and back. Now it charges and the screen works. Thing is fine 😁
Corrupted SD? Getting a SanDisk to replace it.
Using a 5V-1.5A with quality cord now too. Even though, my USB voltage tester says my expensive quality 65W GAN PD charger says it's taking the proper 5V-1.5A that is supposed to. Just to be safe.
Thank you for your help and advice. Your quick replies are appreciated 👍
What if I'm using a 5V 1.55A charger? It's the only one I could find laying around the house. Hoping it won't do too much damage.
Youre fine
@@JaviPlayRetro awesome, thanks for the content. followed your 2 card sd setup the other day!
@@retiredhater If your charger gets hotter then you think is normal, please stop using it for your device as to not create a fire hazzard
This should be more than fine. I use a 5v 2amps with no issues, and I personally think this is pretty much the higher limit for these kind of devices. To my opinion, the most important part is NOT using a charger that is capable of more than 5 volts, this because... I really hope that at least a current control is present on the device, I doubt a voltage control is there,though
Miyoo mini plus's the same 5v only
I take it the original RG35XX also had this problem?
this is not a problem. step one: read the back lines. step two: read the charger you have. İS this Equal? problem solved. is not equal, get new charger. (cable doesn't matter.)
@@Feimyol If I recall correctly, the issue is that Anbernic put >= instead of just ==, so most people (especially those new to the handheld console scene) will assume it's safe to use something with a larger input.

Very interesting video. I am a bit of a tech savvy, but I can easily see my handheld explode while wife or son charges it... And big part of the general chargers (and data transfer... Though not so much applicable to the retro handhelds) mess is due to the USB type C "standard", which is... I don't want to use bad words so I will just say it's a mess. The type C is the attempt, in my view a badly failed attempt, at unifying everything charge/data related under one single standard. Issue is... Looking at the Power transfer, this should work across the board from 100watts laptop chargers to 5 watts headphones / flashlights / "toys" charger... Thus the multi-power and multi-voltage chargers. Probably in the mind of whomever thought this would work there was the idea that each and every appliance would have a very high quality (therefore high cost...) Charging circuit, that can tell the charger what voltage and current he had to provide. Of course... Not gonna happen for the cheapest devices!! There had been a simpler time when USB outlets were by standard all 5v, 1amp (or even 0.5 amps, can't remember). That is of course not sufficient for higher end devices, which at that time had specific charging ports (do you remember the coaxial plugs of laptops and... Literally any high power device?)
Regarding the concept of having every device coming with a power brick.. the intent of type C was exactly to avoid this, and have much less e-waste produced, but again, failed.
The defence we have now is... Keeping a couple of "stupid" chargers (ideally a 5v 1amp and a 5v 2amps should cover everything) for the smallest creepiest devices.
Type C still remains kind of a dream but though "smart", it's surely not smart enough
Type C was a colossal failure. There should've been a law to force all cables to be identical and a standardization for fast charging. Not 15 different fast charging protocols. Thats what I'm saying, not all Type C cables are created equal, not all fast chargers are created equal, a lot of fast charger are made for specific devices. Using the wrong charger on the wrong device can lead to problems. If the goal was to make every device use the same connector, we failed hard,
@@JaviPlayRetro yeppp exactly. Actually, the connector itself was unified, true, but implied even more confusion and risk. If they at least were able to fix say... 4-5 levels of Power transfer, and same for the data transfer, and simply color code (or number code) them clearly (so that at least one could match the codes between charger/cable/device) it would have been a little better. Actual situation is just a jungle, where every producer uses same connector and wildly different tech features
Is it safe to use powerbank with 5v 2.1a output?
Yes, perfectly safe. I have one just like it.
Hi, I have a 1a charger and a 2,4a cable, its safe to charge a 5v 1,5a handheld? the cable is a problem?
Cable cant output more that 1a the charger is suppling. Youre fine
Thanks!@@JaviPlayRetro
@@charlessouzanetto9377 I do recommend getting a power supply 1.5A or greater if you can so you can avoid slow charging. 🐌
@@JaviPlayRetro Thanks again. Your video is very helpfull.
This is why i bought a 5v 1A charger specifically for my portable devices and accessories. I'd rather charge slow than break my devices and accessories.
you made an entire video about charging, and not once showed the light on the top of the console showing it's charging
The battery lights on all these are finicky at best.
I do not recommend using a power bank to charge. I killed an rg280v using a Samsung powerbank.
it doesn't really need to come with one, they are just saying use one certified to your countries standards as every country has different standards and power networks.
Also in fires batteries can explode and if they do its usually very violent. They just worded is poorly. it almost sounds like they are saying the battery will cause a fire that will have explosions lol
You basically just want to use the black USB A female plug and you're probably fine. Orange and blue usb plugs are rated for higher Amps and often variable voltages. Use old tech on old tech.
1. These devices were made in China, so translation is not always literal.*
2. The label on the back is most likely referring to the cable provided in the packaging and not an actual charger.
3. It’s general knowledge at this point that Lithium (in this case it’s a Lithium Polymer hybrid) batteries explode when overheating beyond a certain point. Manufacturers have been putting warning labels all over packages containing Lithium batteries for years. (It’s not written that way on the label for reasons that are obvious as I have mentioned earlier - *)
Can I use my Iphone 15 charger type c?
Can you read the output to me? I believe it has a 9V lane. If it does, i wouldn't use it.
i have 5v 2.4A
shall i need to change
No that's fine.
I think it's ok, generally every device has a current limiter (easy and cheap), not a voltage limiter or transformer (more costly). Just be sure the charger can't supply higher voltages than 5v
So just so my gold fish brain of mine understands lol. Since I just ordered my first one. I've got the RG35XXSP coming in. So if I want to guarantee safety of myself and devices life. I can use any USB A to C cable, other than the one they provide? Then if I go to Amazon and order a plug/ power brick. That is strictly 5v1a, I will/ should be good? Please no trolls, I'm genuinely asking for correct info. Thank you in advance.
For the most part, any usb A to C should be good. You want to use a 5V2A slow charger. Thats whats perfect for charging your sp.
@@JaviPlayRetro I appreciate the quick reply. Thank you for the video and the comment. I hope in the future, these companies. Really look into fixing this issue.
@@JaviPlayRetro I appreciate the quick reply. Thank you for the video and the comment. I hope in the future, these companies. Really look into fixing this issue.

@DWS2020 They're really great little chargers. Ive been using them for a year
You care so much about me
Its ok charge this console on a PS4 USB port?
yep, i have 5 handhelds and i charge them all by Xbox Series S port
USB-C is supposed to negotiate and work with all chargers - why the Jeff do these devices die if using a more powerful power brick? Device probably doesn’t use USB-C standard.
I been using faster charger with myioo mini plus with no issue until recently discussion on the internet, for rx35 i been using normal charger with just C port wire. Since this is from china , i rather take safety first, forget fast charger and use normal, i even dont charge at night while sleeping,i dont trust things made from china. I admit i was wrong to not bother with myioo mini plus and safety for myself and others in the house.
"The battery may explode in the fire." ROFL
Just yapping. Can we get a TL;DW?
My piece of shit Miyoo Mini wont even charge from a laptop, whats up with that?
It’s just badly translated Chinese
If these are cheap bootleg systems which they are, don't matter anyways the build quality probably wouldn't matter to which charger you use. And the part where it says may explode in a fire is self explanatory it's clear as day to what that means. You don't throw anything with batteries in a fire or it could explode especially lithium batteries they are highly reactive AF. Seen videos where people take lithium batteries take them apart get that foil that's in them and throw in fire then they explode, also they would throw in water and they also explode. So these are bootleg consoles so if don't come with a charger just charge with what you got they cheap just buy another when it dies. Even phones don't come with them anymore either they all assume people have way too many of them so your good charge it whatever you have
This video is primarily about keeping your handheld alive and more importantly safely. I have 2 kids in my house a 1 year old and 4 year old. What if I left that Anker charger alone and that handheld got so hot it explodes with them next to? Then I have a severely burned child. now what do I sue Anbernic thats half way across the world.
No where in the device spec does it say supports fast charging. Just c to c. On the back of the device it say 7.5W and thats not fast charging.
Just be safe. Please.
