No-load power consumption test

Whether the charger will waste electricity when it is not in use when it is plugged into the socket, and how much power will be lost, is a question in the minds of many readers, and the standby power consumption link is to answer this question. Plug the charger into the socket of the PA300 series power meter and read the data on the power meter, the test result is as follows.

Review of Huntkey Card F65 Slim 65W charger, ultra-thin body, support 65W multi-protocol fast charging

After the power meter test, the no-load power consumption of the charger at 220V 50Hz voltage is 0.21W, which translates to about 1.84KW·h of power loss in a year, and if the market price is 0.6 yuan / KW··h, the electricity cost of the charger is about 1.10 yuan a year.

The no-load power consumption of the charger at 110V 60Hz voltage is 0.33W, which translates to about 2.89KW·h of power loss in a year, and if the market price is 0.6 yuan / KW··h, the electricity cost of the charger is about 1.73 yuan a year.

Conversion efficiency test

A charger is essentially a conversion device, and there is a loss in the process, which is emitted in the form of heat; The charger tends to draw more power from the socket than the charger labels; The conversion efficiency of Huntkey 65W GaN fast charger was tested separately under the condition of 220V 50Hz AC input, and the test results are shown in the figure below.

Review of Huntkey Card F65 Slim 65W charger, ultra-thin body, support 65W multi-protocol fast charging

Let's take a look at the conversion efficiency under 220V 50Hz voltage, the overall conversion efficiency is between 80-91.81%; Among them, the highest conversion efficiency is the 20V3.25A gear, with a conversion efficiency of 91.81%; The lowest conversion efficiency is the 5V3A range, with a conversion efficiency of 80%.

Let's take a look at the conversion efficiency under 110V 60Hz voltage, the overall conversion efficiency is between 81-90.91%; Among them, the highest conversion efficiency is the 20V2A gear, with a conversion efficiency of 90.91%; The lowest conversion efficiency is the 5V3A level, with a conversion efficiency of 81.12%.

On the whole, the conversion efficiency of Huntkey 65W GaN fast charger under two types of voltages is at the mainstream level among similar chargers, with the highest conversion efficiency reaching 91.81%, which is a good performance.

Ripple test

Due to the switching power supply used in the charger, the secondary output of the transformer is not direct current, and the output needs to be rectified and capacitively filtered, that is, there will be ripple in the output of the charger; The charging head network uses an oscilloscope to test the ripple value of the charger's output, and compares it with the industry standard to detect the output quality of the charger. The lower the ripple, the higher the output quality of the charger.

No-load ripple
