the problem with chargers that come with your device generally you only have one port the
solution in the past that used to be something big and bulky like this that only had two
connections on it and could only output 30 Watts Max the solution
smaller than you think hello I am Wanderer001 and this is my review of the Anker 735
65 watt charger first thing you might notice is compared to that 30 watt charger that we
had before this is remarkably smaller in form factor in some cases it is half the size and while
we're talking about size we are talking about a length of 2.6 inches with a width of 1.5 so
this is a ridiculously small device and you kind of saw right there well guess what this actually
has three connection options on the back you have two USBC and then one USB a now the total wattage
output for this is 65 Watts if you start using multiples that will lower the wattage because it's
going to dynamically push as much power as it can to specific devices while maintaining the optimal
output the overall device itself as you can see it's got this matte black finish all around the
front facing here if I get that to focus a little bit there's a little silver accent piece right
there and then even more more difficult to see on camera it's actually a little textured beveling
right there bringing it around to the front end of things well this does have a collapsible prong
which I do appreciate because that helps you save on space and there's just a little accent Channel
around there one of the things with prongs that collapse that I'm always concerned with is the
ability for them to withstand accidental bump so you can see right there I'm actually you can
see my thumb is changing colors a little bit I'm actually putting a decent amount of downward force
on this to try and get this to collapse again and it does actually need a substantial amount
of force and then quickly kind of Springs itself back into the wall charger which is great now one
thing that you do not get with the Anker 735 here is any charging cables you will be providing your
own charging cables however you do get something that you don't normally get with a charging brick
like this and that is a wall adapter this is a silicone adapter with a bunch of suction cups
on the back of it so the idea behind this is that you place this against a outlet and these suction
cups kind of help keep this in place a little better so you can see right here we just kind of
push that into place like that and then this would be the back view and obviously your prongs to be
out already but that would be sticking against the wall and that is to help support this on
older Outlets that might not be able to accept the weight of this this is ridiculously light
it is less than a pound but older Outlets might have a problem with that so you have the suction
cup the beauty of the size of this also is you can have two of these stacked one on top of
each other giving you a total of six possible uh peripherals that you could be charging off
of the two separate devices but let me give you an example of what this looks like in
the wall as well as what the silicone adapter here kind of looks like and helps with this
here we can see the plug in one of my adapters here and you notice that there's plenty of room
right here for another one if I wanted to I could have two of these stacked on top of each other
now one of the things with this particular plug being that this is an older Outlet you can see
it kind of can easily fall out but if we utilize the adapter here and we kind of leave the prongs
out put that in place and then come along and push that in you can see we'll just suction
cup that into place granted utilizing this you are going to eat into some of the usable space
down here you're not going to be able to use two plugs if you're using the adapter however
if I didn't have a wall plate that was egregiously painted over this would stick a little better and
kind of help it not jiggle as much at least it's not falling out like it did before and again if
this is a smooth wall plate this would help it to stay in place much better there you saw really
small form factor good peripheral peripheral gets in the way of some things if you wanted
to use two of these but that's a small thing because you're really not going to need to use
that too often now coming back up to our charging areas I want to state that unlike some other ones
that I've tested in the past these don't actually light up so if you need to keep this plugged into
a wall at all times you don't have to worry about a light disturbing you if you're keeping this in a
bedroom you might have seen the Gan Prime branding for this anchor charger that is anchors new push
with the 7 Series stuff that Gan Prime is kind of their code for like a lot of stuff that you're
getting with it one being power IQ 4.0 for the charger here so you can see right there that's
powered by the iq4 right there you also have their active Shield technology which pretty
much monitors the temperature of it three million times per day there is a host of other things they
have a seven point system I won't get into that there's a lot that goes into this for the price
that you're paying but one of the things that I like to test is well they're telling you how
much throughput you can actually get well what does that look like in real situations in real
scenarios as well as this is outputting quite a bit of power for such a small device what
are the temperatures like for this when actively charging at the highest walk capacity well let's
take a look at that here we have the plug actually plugged in powered on I've got a little volt meter
here we will plug this into the USB a and there we can see we get five volts out uh sadly I don't
have a volt meter for the usb c but what we'll do is we will take a USB a to USBC cable here
and we will plug it in so that we can see the draw I've got my pixel phone just dying to be charged
so that I can make sure that it will pull the maximum amount out and here we can see the voltage
dropped it's a 4.67 with amperage being 1.39 and just for clarification here we have ampere tool on
my phone show like a minimum of 880 milliamps and a maximum of 1350 milliamps and there you can see
the current draw right out of the IQ boost right here take that out we're going to plug it directly
into our USB a to see if there was any change based on you know sending it through the tool
first so we're just going to give this a chance to read itself and there you can see it actually
has increased to a minimum of 1360 and a maximum of 1510 and there you see it's holding steady
now what I'm going to do is I'm going to take both of those I'm going to plug in a USBC cable
directly into the phone and allow that to get a moment to measure and then we're going to use
the the iq1 as opposed to the one that's meant for the laptop first and here we go
here you can see minimum minimum of 3720 maximum of 38.40 and there you have 3840 sustained for
milliamps and we're going to swap this to our top one and then here we have minimum of 37.90 and
a Max of 38 38.40 and then 3840 sustained and starting off just from our little tests we're
going to quickly take a reading and just from the little bit of tests that we were doing it is 70.9
we will come back after half an hour and see how that is and after 30 minutes only 82 degrees so
as far as Electronics go that's not bad at all so while it is a little warm to the touch don't
really have to worry about that catching anything on fire next we'll test the maximum output from
this using an anchor power bank and 140 Watt USB cable so we're going to plug that in there
and then we're going to plug it into the top of my charging brick right here
and we're going to give that a chance to start up and it's pulling about 58 Watts right there
so what we're going to do is we're going to leave this on for about 30 minutes see
how hot it gets based on pulling the 58 Watts temperature reading for the maximum pull that
I was getting here so it seems the average 115 I'm getting a high of 122 and some areas
125 towards the voltage area that plugs in but overall not that bad yeah 124 on that reading
and we'll do the top here only 111 to 108 so even with something doing a very high draw the
power brick itself is not going to get warm enough that it's going to hurt anything that it might be
leaning against but it will get a bit warm as you saw I managed to get it up to 137 degrees
Fahrenheit when I was really pulling to charge that anchor battery but all in all it was still
cool enough to the touch that I wouldn't have to worry about leaving this somewhere
and it accidentally catching on fire again that's also part of the Gan Prime where it's constantly
checking itself for fire hazards for overcharge it's a lot of brains in this small package now
one of the things I will mention is that as far as small compact Chargers go this is not going to
be one of the cheaper ones you are paying for all of those extras but those extras are well
worth it however this has come down considerably in price since I've originally got it and there's
also a model that's slightly more expensive but has a higher output right now I don't have any
laptops that would run off of something like this that would need that higher output so for me the
65 watt form factor here that I can charge three devices off at a time is just great for me because
of all that I highly recommend checking out the Anker 735 65 watt charger with that being said
