If anyone is in the market for power adapters I find SlimQ to be top tier.

I was mildly impressed until it got to the wall of slack-jawed selfies featuring titles like “gen-streamer” and my scam alarm bell started ringing.


I own a couple of these devices and they are the real deal but I understand how that can be off putting.

Full disclosure: they use some Chinese shipping service I’ve never heard of that may raise scam alerts further.

The adapters are smaller than comparables I have and work with every device I’ve tried. That being said, I haven’t done a teardown and I’ve only used them about half a year so far.


I also like these chargers. I use adapters to several companies' proprietary charging ports. I like they will do 240W in a SFF and have bonus USB-C ports for my phone and tablet (or whatever).


Would you bother to explain your motivation?


My motivation for buying one was that I used to have a huge laptop charger and my SlimQ is much easier to carry around.

My motivation for sharing is that I like the product and thought others might too. People responding in a thread about power adapters might be in the market for power adapters so I want to help them find good products.
