0:00
with everything already built in is the
0:02
my charge Hub plus C the best USB
0:05
charger you can get let's find
0:15
out Dave Taylor here and I want to talk
0:17
about rechargeable batteries yeah we
0:19
talk about them a lot cuz they're just a
0:21
fact of life power is just a necessary
0:25
thing it's a necessary evil for all of
0:28
these devices we have so so whatever
0:30
kind of phone whatever kind of tablet
0:32
you have you run out of juice and it's
0:34
such a drag trying to find a power plug
0:37
having adapters enter the my charge Hub
0:41
plus C now my charge has been making
0:43
rechargeable batteries for a long time
0:46
they really know what they're doing and
0:47
this one's a really nice set of
0:49
different possibilities so let's start
0:52
with the top it has a wall prong so you
0:55
just plug it in and charge you don't
0:56
need to bring any special cables you
0:58
don't need any special adapters super
1:02
done you clip the prongs down and you're
1:05
good to go on the top there's a USB but
1:09
much more interesting is on the side
1:11
there are built-in cables one for micro
1:17
USBC and here's our handy LG G6 stunt
1:22
phone that has a USBC connector I plug
1:25
this in and boom I am charging my phone
1:29
and just so you know this is a nice big
1:32
capacity it's pretty heavy but it's a
1:34
6700 milliamp hour so that's over double
1:37
the battery capacity of the phone and
1:40
it's going to be plenty enough juice for
1:41
you to charge multiple things
1:43
simultaneously or charge your device
1:46
more than once where is this useful I'll
1:48
tell you when I go to trade shows our
1:51
late afternoon coffee break or something
1:53
you pull out one of these and everyone's
1:55
your best friend cuz they all want to
1:57
charge their devices and you can do them
1:59
all simultane ously how cool is that
2:01
have a lightning connector in your
2:03
pocket you plug it into the USB and you
2:05
got all three rolling so you can really
2:08
do a lot with this and I want to point
2:10
out also this is very important that
2:13
there's a little button you push and it
2:14
shows you on little LEDs how much charge
2:17
is left that is good to know cuz you
2:19
don't want to be the cool kid that has
2:21
the charger just to find out his dead
2:24
awkward so if you have a USBC device
2:29
this is the one you can get they also
2:31
have a Hub plus that actually has
2:33
lightning in micro USB same form factor
2:36
same 6700 milliamp hours very nice the
2:40
other thing this has though since it is
2:42
the very latest generation of everything
2:45
it has both smart charge and something
2:48
from Qualcomm that's called Quick Charge
2:50
3.0 and what these mean is that this
2:54
device has circuitry and it's smart
2:57
enough when you plug something into it
2:59
it knows what device it is and it knows
3:01
the maximum possible wattage it can push
3:04
to that device to give you the fastest
3:07
possible charge really really nice so
3:10
this thing doesn't just trickle along
3:11
and take forever for your phone to
3:13
charge this is more like if you're
3:15
really low and you plug this in and have
3:17
a quick sandwich at a trade show or
3:20
maybe it's between Innings at a baseball
3:22
game or something by the time you next
3:24
look at it there'll be a substantial
3:26
Improvement in your battery so Qualcomm
3:29
Quick Charge 3.0 this is not the first
3:31
device we've looked at that has that um
3:34
one more cool thing is that once you
3:36
charge it it'll hold its charge they say
3:38
for up to a year that is a long time I
3:42
am not going to test it cuz there's no
3:44
way I'm going to wait a year to charge
3:45
something it's crazy right so speaking
3:47
of crazy click the Subscribe button you
3:50
can watch all my other crazy videos
3:52
awesome thank you now mycharge.com tons
3:55
of different options this one is the Hub
3:58
plus c and by the way being a mad
4:01
scientist I decided I would try plugging
4:03
the USBC into my MacBook that uses
4:08
USBC doesn't work it's just not enough
4:11
there it's only an 18 watt output but my
4:14
charge doesn't say it's going to charge
4:15
a laptop but it will definitely charge
4:17
your tablet if you have a tablet that
4:19
has USBC I don't know of any on the
4:21
market yet but they're coming USBC is
4:23
pretty cool it's definitely better than
4:25
micro USB who thought of a connector
4:28
that you had to figure out what or
4:29
orentation who thought of that I say
4:32
crazy but my charge Hub plus C
4:37
$79.99 at mycharge.com I say check it
4:40
out and if you get one of these then the
4:43
next time you're at a trade show at a
4:45
conference you're in class you've had a
4:47
super long day you're even on a hike you
4:50
pull this thing out and you are good to
4:52
go with your new devices so this is Dave
4:54
Taylor and I will catch you fully
4:57
charged in my next video
