As a brand-new product for the lipstick power ring to enter the hand accessories market, these two new products perfectly inherit the family's quality gene_safe and stable charging experience and compact and portable design. The new third-generation GaN technology brings ultra-high power density up to 1.07W /cm3--

This is a small-size plug-in charger that can meet the needs of multiple scenarios. It is compatible with PD, QC and PPS charging protocols. It fully supports efficient and fast charging of mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets, smart watches, bracelets and headphones. It has obvious and strong "Mobile All in One" attribute.

The release of the new lipstick power supply also means that Lenovo thinkplus has fully entered the hand-fitting market, and the next hand-fitting market is about to usher in a strong competitor and unprecedented fierce competition.

After a period of in-depth experience of Lenovo thinkplus lipstick power supply GaN 30W, I can deeply feel Lenovo's strong determination and technical strength to become an industry leader.

But Lenovo's ambitions did not stop there.

Safe charging does not hurt the machine, charging safety does not hurt people First of all, Lenovo thinkplus lipstick power supply GaN 30W biggest highlight is safety.

For example, intelligent temperature control technology. According to the official introduction, this set of intelligent temperature control technology includes more than ten intelligent protection functions such as overvoltage protection, output overload protection, input overcurrent resistance, short circuit protection, antistatic protection and low ripple protection.

Take temperature detection as an example, which will exceed real-time temperature detection of up to 600 times per minute to ensure that the whole charge is maintained at a constant temperature.

For example, Lenovo thinkplus lipstick power supply GaN 30W lightning surge protection 1.2V is better than the national standard 1KV, low electromagnetic interference protection is better than the national standard 3dB, output voltage range stability does not exceed 5%, higher than 10% industry standard, keep the equipment has the longest service life.

This strict safety standard and intelligent temperature control technology make Lenovo thinkplus lipstick power supply GaN 30W have the current ceiling level safety capability.

This safety advantage is not only to protect the charged equipment, but also to protect the user.

For example, in terms of design, thinkplus lipstick power supply GaN 30W housing is selected from V0 fire retardant materials, and has passed up to 40 electrical performance tests and 33 reliability tests.

The so-called "V0 fire protection" refers to the highest level of fire protection rating UL94, with the best flame retardant performance. It is reported that the fire retardant material reaching V0 level can ensure that after the material is tested in contact with the combustion source for 10s, its flame will be extinguished within 30 seconds, and no burning objects will fall.

This line of defense achieves the highest fire safety from the physical level.

The second line of defense is "low leakage current" far lower than the national standard.

In daily life, many people have experienced being "electrified" by charging interfaces. For example, when sleeping at night, if you accidentally press your body against the charging port, you will feel a distinct tingling sensation. More serious, even by electric injury, this is because the charging interface is charged and caused. Therefore,"low leakage current" is no small matter.

According to encyclopedias, the minimum current felt by the human body during electric shock is called perceived current. In a dry environment, the minimum perceived current of adult males is 1100μA, and the minimum perceived current of females can be further reduced to 700μA. The minimum perceived threshold is about 500μA. In wet and damaged conditions, the minimum perceived current of the hand can be reduced to less than 200μA.

At present, the current of 250uA specified by the national standard is a safe current, but this does not mean that it is safe in all cases. For some special people and special environments, because the body resistance may be lower than the normal value, even if the current is lower than 250uA, it may cause danger to the human body.

Therefore, Lenovo thinkplus lipstick power supply GaN 30W will control the low leakage current below 50uA, far lower than the current of 250uA specified by the national standard, which solves the phenomenon of acupuncture when touching the charging line interface and further protects the user's charging safety.

On the other hand, Lenovo thinkplus lipstick power supply GaN 30W controls the charging noise to only 25dB level at 30cm, even if it is used at quiet night, it can guarantee that there is no whistling sound when charging.

In addition, in terms of wire specifications, thinkplus lipstick power supply GaN 30W standard 1 meter USB-C pluggable charging wire, passed more than 10000 plug-in and 5000 times of bending resistance test, but also supports 480Mbps high-speed data transmission, can be said to be both internal and external repair.

The third generation of GaN can be smaller or stronger. The so-called gallium nitride (GaN) is actually a new type of semiconductor material with the characteristics of small volume, high conversion rate, low heating and low switching loss. Since 2019, this technology has been widely used in various chargers.

Lenovo's new lipstick power supply uses the third generation GaN technology, creating a new height in industrial design and integration.

Specifically speaking, the three-dimensional size of Lenovo thinkplus lipstick power supply GaN 30W is further reduced to 30mm * 30mm * 31mm, obtaining the ultimate aspect ratio of nearly 1:1:1. The plane size is almost close to that of a coin. The volume is only 28cc and the weight is only 40g. It can be easily put in a pocket or backpack, suitable for business travel. The compact body also meets the strong demand of travelers for "portability."

In this mini form, Lenovo thinkplus lipstick power supply GaN 30W can achieve a maximum output power of 30W, with an ultra-high power density of up to 1.07W / cm³! Far beyond the industry peers.

According to official data, the lipstick power supply is compatible with PD3.0, QC3.0 and PPS fast charging protocols at the same time, can output 5V/9V/12V/15V/20V voltage, and self-adaptive identification charging equipment, has good compatibility, fully supports smart phones, tablets, smart watches, bracelets, headphones and other mobile devices efficient fast charging.

For example, it takes only 30 minutes to change the iPhone 14 Pro Max battery from 0 to 50%.

CTOnews.com first conducted a simple fast charge test, testing the device for the iPad Pro 11, with a large battery capacity of 28.65 watt hours, theoretically supporting up to 30W PD fast charge.

The test results showed that:

Charge from 10% for 35 minutes, the charge reaches 51%, charge for 60 minutes, the charge reaches 76%, and it takes 1 hour and 40 minutes to charge to 100%.

POWER-Z records show that PD fast charging can be unlocked by thinkplus lipstick power supply GaN 30W charging.

During the charging process, the charging power of the device is kept at about 26W, occasionally reaching above 28W, basically running full.

This 30W lipstick power supply is enough to meet the charging needs of devices such as the iPad Pro.

During the charging test, we also tested the heat generation of this lipstick power supply, and the overall temperature of the charging head was basically controlled below 45°C.

Of course, there was still a certain warmth to the touch in the early stage, but it was not particularly obvious. This was a normal phenomenon. Everything was under control.
