Thankyou – really the critical point here is that vendors really shouldn’t put a standard plug in a device without stating what it supports. Just means for us as consumers we have to fumble around in the dark where being up front would save us all money and potential hazards.

How hard is it to put in the specs: USB-C, charging port, PD support only

I mean they’re quick to say that the Hi-dock is QC3.0, I can’t for the life of me understand why they wouldn’t make it compatible with their own tablet under the Hi brand…sigh…anyway I’ll check out that link thanks…but being in Aus I’ll suss out what banggood and those guys have.

Cheers

I’m pretty sad that Chuwi didn’t offer their charger specs up so we as customers know what’s needed. I saw the Chuwi 4-port charger – I mean they even call it the “Hi-dock” for me if a charger would be compatible with my “Hi13” this should be it right?

Bought it, got it home excited to be away from that dodgy charger the tablet came with – plugged it it…red light came on…good so far I thought, then I saw “plugged in, charging”…excellent, then I saw my battery remaining go down…and down….and down.

Grabbed the little freeware battery util mentioned in the Chuwi forum….opened it, plugged in…reported min of 6000 mW going in…but no charging. I plugged in the original charger…it said 6000mW going in but it IS charging.

Why have Chuwi locked out their own product from charging their tablet? Or is it that the original charger has damaged the chipset and is the only one I can use now?

This is starting to turn me off them for a purchase again in the future.
