Extremely small portable USB-PD USB-C power supplies

[glinoob]

Hi there,

I would like to gather insight on which, if any, single-port compact USB-PD chargers will reliably deliver 5V 3A to newer GL.iNet devices such as Slate Plus, Beryl AX, Slate AX, etc.

The point of this is to find power supplies that are good for travel and use on a plugstrip:

• small (GaN based)
• do not block any adjacent power socket
• have one (1) USB-A or USB-C port (no integrated cable)
• have a folding plug
• will provide up to 5V 3A to any "dumb" device plugged in
• no "quirks," noisy power, or unreliability at max power draw

Any insight would be appreciated. I will edit this top post with findings from myself and others in the thread.

Personally tested

• Ugreen CD318 Nexode - US - 20W - [5V 3A; 9V 2.2A; 12V 1.7A; PPS] - Amazon US
  powers newer routers
  not yet tested with connected USB devices
  will not block outlets above/below in most cases
  may block outlets left/right

• Spigen PE2009UJ ArcStation Pro - US - 20W - [5V 3A; 9V 2.2A] - Amazon US
  powers newer routers
  not yet tested with connected USB devices
  may block outlets above/below
  will not block outlets left/right in most cases

Alternate Power Supply for Beryl AX (GL-MT3000)

Hello, We have a new Beryl AX and I know from the data sheet that the power input is Type-C, 5V/3A. I would like to know if the router is compatible with a USB-C power delivery (PD) charger. We currently own the uGreen charger at this link. I used the Ugreen charger for a short troubleshooting test and it works without any issues. For convenience, I would like to travel with as little as possible but I do not want to cause damage to the router. I found one reference in the forum confirming t…

Slate AX requirement for 4A adapter

The router can be powered using 5V3A for sure. Using 4A adapter is just because there is a USB port and need to power up external devices.

I am using an Anker 511 myself for this purpose.

I've obtained a Spigen 20W USB-C, a Ugreen 20W USB-C, as well as a 2-port Anker unit for testing. Excited to report back in a few days!

I have been very happy with the uGreen line of products. Only have good things to say about their hardware.

Ugreen Nexode 30w works well with my Beryl AX
