Just completed my personal test of Naztech 26800 vs Anker 26800 PD (Power Delivery @ 30 watts). Controls: 1. Same USB-C port used on Macbook 2. Same Anker USB-C to USB-C cable used 3. Macbook placed in same location (never moved) 4. Naztech and Anker placed in same location while charging Macbook 5. USB-C cable plugged into power bank using same orientation 6. Both given 30 minutes to charge Macbook in sleep mode 7. Both battery packs near new condition and full charge before testing (both less than 30 days old)
Naztech results: Battery of Macbook before charging..~37% - After 30 minutes..~ 48% Anker results: Battery of Macbook before charging..~48% - After 30 minutes..~70%
Naztech charge = ~11% Anker PD charge = ~22%
Conclusion: Anker PD charged at twice the rate of Naztech.

glennacThat item would have been helpful at measuring the watts. Thanks for the heads up.
TaimanThank you for the detailed review. Its awesome when community members share information like this. In reguards to the Anker product if you are in need of Power Delivery and dont mind paying the extra $40 bucks for it then I say go for it.
However as 200 people have already joined in on this drop I would have to say its a pretty good deal at $60 bucks. Also, for future reference you will see more and more drops with a review section which is more appropriate place to post content like this. It helps members go directly to those reviews and receive awesome feedback like you have provided here.
If you dont mind also putting your review there that would be great. As this post will eventually get pushed down the feed and missed by most people.
Thank you!

glennacThat's the same one I have! Great little USB-C capacity measure.
However, it lacks Watt measurement.
You have to use the W=V x A and calculate by your own.

Tex-ArozziHutch, I did notice the new Reviews section earlier in the week under other products. However, it doesn’t appear to be visible on mobile devices. At least it isn’t showing at the moment under this product on my iPhone.
glennacCool, well whenever you can get logged into a computer it would be great if you can also post it under reviews. Its a good one and I want others to be able to find it for upcoming drops.
Thanks.

TaimanTo add to this, the main reason the Anker device charged faster is because the Anker device supports Power Delivery over Type-C, while the Naztech only supports 15W max over Type-C.
So the Anker charged at twice the rate because its PD spec supports up to 20V/1.5A, or 30W, literally double the speed of the Naztech.
What you need to consider in the end here is what you really need a power bank for. If you have a ton of 2-3 generation old cellphones and USB devices, you might want this Naztech power bank instead because it supports Quick Charge 3.0 where the Anker you mentioned doesn't. If you have current-gen Type-C smartphones, a Macbook, or something like a Nintendo Switch, buying a power bank that supports Power Delivery will benefit you equally or greater over this. (Or alternatively, you could shell out a bit more money and get a power bank with both QC3.0 and PD so you have both options available)
For example, my LG V30 supports both QC3.0 and PD, and charges at the same 18W rate on both, so it makes no difference to me which bank I use. My Nintendo Switch can make use of PD though and charge faster. So in the end, a PD device is better suited for me.
Just things for everyone to think about!

TaimanHi how many watt is the naztech power bank? I have HP Spectre 360 15t laptop with USB C port/ thunderbolt and I am not sure if this power bank would charge it. The battery I have in the laptop is 6 cell 84Wh li ion.
