Anker has unveiled the PowerCore 24K portable charger with a 140W fast charging capability. The new device comes with a 24,000mAh battery which can be charged as well as used to charge other devices at 140W charging speed. The portable PowerCore 24K comes with significant improvements from its predecessor and is already available on demand.
The Anker PowerCore 24K operates under the
Power Delivery 3.1 architecture. It has overshot the previous maximum charging
power by 40W, from its previous 100W speed. There are two USB-C ports that can
simultaneously output 140W charging while the USB-A port charges at 18W. The
new power bank is based on the GaN 3 technology deployed in Anker’s recent
GaNPrime chargers. The technology delivers a more efficient AC-DC conversion
and higher power output. The technology also provides a more compact and
temperature-efficient charging device.
The PowerCore 24K has a smart digital
display that shows charging information. It provides information such as the
power draw for each connected device, the power status of the power bank, and
recharge time. Anker says that the display should only be used when needed to
conserve available power. Other chargers also launched by Anker include the
Anker 747 GaNPrime with 150W charging from a single port. The Anker 747
GaNPrime does not have the Power Delivery 3.1 technology. The maximum power
that can come simultaneously from the Anker 747 is 100W.
You can purchase the PowerCore 24K
directly from the Anker website or via Amazon for US$ 149.99. The package does not
include the device charger or a USB-C cable. The device requires a PD
3.1-capable charger and USB-C cable to achieve its specified 140W charging.
