Wieder einmal gutes Video. Dank dir weiß ich jetzt auch warum meine USB Adapter die ich so hatte nicht die Switch geladen haben. PD war mir vorher kein begriff. Danke!
I wrote a script under Linux that automatically sets charging limits to 0% and switches the system to battery-mode (CPU scheduler etc) until the charger is disconnected. That way I'm able to use the external power bank as a main source quite long, which truly extends the time I can use my notebook without a wall plug.
Does that work with all distros? I'm using Arch on my main PC, but it would be good to have a script like that in case I eventually get a Framework laptop or something similar.

Hab' zuletzt nur noch USB C Ladegeräte mit >100W gekauft. Müssten so 3 sein, ein viertes ist in Planung für die Arbeit. Bin totaler Fan von USB C, finde den "alten" iPhone Stecker mechanisch irgendwie etwas solider, aber alle Geräte über USB C zu verbinden bzw. zu laden ist mMn ein mega Komfort Feature. EU kann geil sein, merkt man auch beim Urlaub machen! 😜 Hab' 2x Anker PB, für das Notebook aber bisher noch nicht genutzt, da das MacBook eh nie leergeht. Aber das Prime könnte zumindest das Teil laden.
Meine Huawei Notebooks und Windows Tablets laden sogar am 5V 1A Ladegerät... und die werden voll.... dauert halt. Wie die das machen... schleierhaft müssen das wohl irgendwie hochzutransformieren.
Von den INIU´s sind bei mir auch 2 im gebrauch. Für deutlich unter 50€ bekommen und somit musste ich bei der 2. nicht lange überlegen. Aktuell ist auch die neue Ugreen 300w sehr häufig im gebrauch. Die bietet ~140Wh und hält 200W bis 1%. Ist aber natürlich aufgrund der anderen Zell Chemie etwas schwerer und größer.
Du hast die sie schon ? kannst sie empfehlen will sie für mein galaxy book 4 ultra hole das unterwegs damit ich mit voll Leistung(140 watt) unterwegs länger arbeiten kann
@@umit9292 Ich hab die jetzt seit fast 2 Monaten. Direkt über Ugreen. Ich find sie super. Wenn man nur die USB-C Ports nutzt schafft sie die 300W locker bis 80% (ich hab auch schon gesehen das sie sie bis 65% hält). 200W gehen immer. Und geladen bekommst du sie mit dem richtigen Netzteil in 1:20h. Schön ist auch das sie egal bei was kaum warm wird. Nachteil ist natürlich die Größe und das Gewicht dank der LiFePo4 Zellen... aber die angegebenen 3.000 Zyklen (dann 80% Kapazität) sind auch nicht ohne wenn man sie täglich nutzt.
Hab die anker prime 27.650 das book 4 ultra brauch 140 watt dafür ist das top sonst hab ich 2 revolt(1x 20.000mah 1x60.000mah) die könne nur 65 watt für mein einfach galaxy book pro reiche es aber für ultra nicht aber bin mal auf die ugreen 48.000mah
**deutsh:** I’m looking for a USB-C switcher that allows me to connect my USB-C EarPods to both my Mac Mini (for WhatsApp/Zoom calls) and my Pixel 7 Pro (for cellular calls). Here are the specifics of my setup: **Mac Mini:** Running macOS Ventura, primarily used for WhatsApp and Zoom calls. Pixel 7 Pro: Running Android 13, used for regular cellular phone calls. **USB-C EarPods:** Standard USB-C EarPods with built-in microphone. **Requirements:** The switcher should support seamless switching between devices without needing to unplug and replug the EarPods. It should also maintain audio quality and microphone functionality across both devices. Does anyone know of a USB-C switcher that can handle this setup?
That's a pretty hard requirement, because I doubt there will be something like this out on the market. I used to run a setup like this on my Mac Mini a year ago for the same kind of thing: 1. Creative Sound Blaster X4 --> This is an external USB DAC/Sound Card, which can capture audio from your Pixel by plugging a headphone jack cable into the mic port (your Pixel ofc needs an USB C to heaphone adapter) 2. Rogue Amoeba Loopback --> With this software you can route audio from mics to output, making it possible to easily listen to any sound from your Pixel The software is expensive, but that's what you sign up for when using macOS. On Linux and Windows you can easily do this with preinstalled software. iirc you can kind of also do this with OBS and/or BlackHole for free, but don't quote me on that. Loopback is for audio production mostly, hence the high price. 3. Place your Pixel near you, that way people still hear you through the mic of the device itself and there's no need to use the USB-C EarPods mic. Basically, that's an overkill setup to achieve this, but mostly solid one. Alternatives: 1. (expensive, easy) Buy an iPhone, iPhones just automatically let you answer the call on the Mac. (I hate iPhones, but this is an area where they excel) 2. (workaround, easy) Use a different device that runs Windows or Linux. Some laptops have mic ports, which means you don't have to buy an external USB DAC. Windows allows you to link your Pixel with your PC by bluetooth, but iirc the quality takes a small hit when doing that and I can't vouch for stability. I like wired methods more, so you could also just do what I tried to explain above, as it should be really easy with Windows too. 3. (complicated workaround) If you have a landline network/phone at home and a router that can receive calls by voice over IP (VOIP), you could re-route the call to your landline number and answer the call on your Mac with Softphone apps. With German routers from AVM (Fritz!box) this is really straightforward, but the setup process for the first time is a little complicated. I can't think of more alternatives, but maybe you could just write if it absolutely has to be used with your Mac Mini. Maybe someone else has a better idea, though.
@@TheFingerMove usb c earpods works just find with pixel 7 pro. no need for adapter because pixel 7 pro got usb c port and the earpods are usb c too. Could you test if usb c earpods functions as a peripheral on a USB-C KVM switch between two Macs, or alternatively, between a Mac and an iPhone/Android device? very appreciated for your effort
@@Renee.Dominique1 Okay, so if I understood correctly, you just want a quick way to not have to replug your USB C EarPods and are just looking for a normal USB KVM switch. I'm not entirely sure if that will work, since the KVM switch will need to support audio over USB C. Your best bet would be to just buy one from Amazon that has as least two USB C out ports and a switcher button for quick switching between devices, I guess. If it doesn't work, just return it. Even though I'd still question if that's a good solution, because this still requires you to manually switch between your Mac and your Pixel. Personally I'd always go for a solution where you don't have to do that (=routing the Pixel's audio into the Mac Mini).
I use scrcpy to mirror my Pixel on my Mac, and it’s set up on a stand with a cooling fan. My earpods work with my Pixel, but I’m unsure if they would interface with a KVM switch. It’s not due to audio over USB issues, as many USB-C KVM switches support this. However, they typically specify compatibility with Windows, Linux, and macOS, but not Android or iOS. I’m looking for someone to test this out. If successful, it could make for unique and pioneering RUclips content-a win-win for everyone!
@@Renee.Dominique1 I mean, there are just better ways to tackle that specific issue, that's why I doubt someone will buy a KVM switch for that purpose. And phones aren't really listed for support because they're not used as PCs. If they are compatible is a whole different question altogether. Also, I kinda forgot about using Scrcpy on macOS because it has really bad screen tearing since macOS 13 which isn't fixed to this date, I think. But that's technically the easiest workaround then if you're willing to just skip out on the mic itself, because iirc Scrcpy has a way to also play back audio from the device through your Mac.
Vielen Dank für dieses Informative Video, du hast mir damit auf jeden Fall bei meiner Kaufentscheidung geholfen. LG :)

Hallo,
gibt es Nachteile wenn man permanent das Macbook Air M2 über USB C anstelle MagSafe lädt ?
