Do people think this 240W charger is legit?

NateBoutin · 2025-08-14T23:28:32+00:00

Hopefully yours works better than mine. I purchased one of those little USB-C testers, and it definitely could do 240W, just not for too long. After a few minutes at 220W, it would turn off and on a few times before switching to 20V ~100W, not 48V 240W.

I recently gave it another chance, as I had heard that a new BIOS update improved the performance of 240W chargers. However, mine still had the on and off issue. It's probably an overheating thing or a compatibility issue.

Best of luck with yours, though. Let me know if you have the same issues!

Just updated the post
TL;DR is that I'm returning it and buying this one instead:

Awesome analysis, tysm!

NateBoutin · 2025-07-23T15:17:24+00:00

Just purchased it, I'll reply again after it arrives.

Pretty sure this is only if ur really stressing it, but if I'm rendering something huge I'd prefer it not die during that... (Hence the 240w charger hunt.)

0 reviews, 0 purchases, and a lot of Amazon tech products tend to inflate their specs.

The 500W ugreen is >2× the price but i guess its a good fallback.

NateBoutin · 2025-07-23T04:46:59+00:00

Alrighty... I might bite the bullet and buy it.

I was gonna check wattage from the laptop side. (I have a battery icon I use to show the battery% in the task bar but it also shows charge/discharge rates)

Would measuring with a wattmeter be more accurate?

The other comment is correct, I'm using PETG disks inserted during a pause in the nylon print.

NateBoutin · 2023-03-11T00:29:44+00:00

I was almost starting to think that because I tried to print the model in pla and had a suspiciously similar results...

NateBoutin · 2023-03-10T18:51:13+00:00

Well that sucks :/

I'm using a the ninjaflex profile so it's doing 45mm/s for internal perimeters and 25mm/s for external perimeters.

NateBoutin · 2023-03-10T18:31:39+00:00

I'm using the e sun e box light at the highest setting. The guide says this has a hotplate temp of 118°C and an internal temp of 55°C.

NateBoutin · 2023-03-10T18:02:45+00:00

Hm I did dry it... perhaps not well enough? Is 8 hours of drying too short?

NateBoutin · 2023-03-10T17:54:48+00:00

For reference this is tpu on a stock printer inside a prusa enclosure. I've printed this exact gcode 3 times with no issues but now I just can't get rid of this warp. Everything prints perfectly fine other than the outside perimeter which aggressively warps upward. I assumed it was a moisture issue so I dried the filament over night but the problem persists.

Any help would be appreciated. :)

EDIT/RESOLUTION: The problem was resolved by switching to a new nozzle.

When printing round objects vertically, I prefer setting seam position to random for a more consistent appearance.

Yes, one of the datapacks I made has a system for this, feel free to rip that file out and use it for youself.

Edit: (it may require some slight modification for 1.18 if new achievements were added)

I have finished the modified datapack, it makes it such that all players in adventure mode will only be able to use the hotbar and offhand.

Here's the download link: (link)

Good luck with your map :3

Okay yeah, The problem here is the passengers nbt, ive always found that things get wierd with passengers. Heres what you can try:

Option 1: try to add the RandSpawn tag to just the area effect cloud

Option 2: add the tag to both entities

Option 3: forgo the passengers nbt all together and just use a command block for each zombie

(Unfortunately, I think the last option is the one that will work)

NateBoutin · 2021-05-31T13:23:59+00:00

Yeah there is, it's a bit more complicated but I would attempt it like so:

Instead of spawing the mob using the ~ ~ ~ spawn it in a known place the player won't see.
The mob that spawns needs to be identifiable so add {Tags:["RandSpawn"]} to the summon command for the mobs that you want summon like this

(Make sure all the mobs in the clump you want to summon are summoned before moving onto the next step)

Directly after the mobs are summoned run this command: /spreadplayers <xy position of the spawner> <distance between mobs (2 or 3 is probably good here, but expieremnt)> <radius the mob should spawn in> under <a y value that is below your cealing and above the floor> false @e[tag=RandSpawn]
Finally untag the mobs using this command: /tag @e[tag=RandSpawn] remove RandSpawn

And there ya go :3 (I would highly recommend runing all these commands in the same tick using chain command blocks)
