The shell of the charger is made from durable material (PC) that is fire-resistant. It has dimensions of 85.2 x 39.4 x 39.5 mm and weighs just 94.7 g. The Type-C plugs connect easily and stay snug in the 2 ports of the charger. The front side is the same size as the small square section (bumper) of an iPhone Pro's cameras, so when the charger is plugged into a power strip, it doesn't take up any space from the neighboring outlets. Each Type-C port reaches up to 45W (20V 2.25A) in PD3.0. When both ports are used, the maximum power of each is 25W. It supports most charging protocols such as: PD3.0 45W (PPS) QC4+, Samsung 5V/2A, BC1.2 DCP 5V/1.5A, Vivo Dual Flash 5-12V, Qualcomm QC2.0/3.0 5-12V, Samsung AFC 9-12V, Huawei FCP 5-12V, Huawei SCP 3.3-12V/2.2A, MTK PE1.1/2.0. The same charging protocols are supported on both ports. In standby, the charger's consumption is 0W. It has excellent performance. In PD3.0 20V, I measured a maximum output of 2.50A 19.80V and a maximum temperature of only 42°C. This mini charger is suitable for MacBook, laptops, or other devices that require 15V and above. I tested the charger's compatibility with different devices. The following video contains dozens of compatibility tests for charging and detailed measurements-maximum values of the outputs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bjmB8Uwoiz4

In this video, there are unboxing, usage instructions, dimension measurements, as well as tests of the charger on batteries of different sizes and brands: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3EGdnUpOQWk
It has careful packaging, is a quite sturdy charger with large dimensions, and can charge all sizes (AAA, AA, C, D, and flat 9V) of NiMH batteries. Its detachable power cable is 1.7m. AAA, AA, C, D batteries must be placed in pairs (in specific positions) for charging to begin. Flat 9V batteries can be placed one at a time or two together. In the tests I conducted, I found that it can charge different brands, capacities, and types of batteries simultaneously. It has two discrete green LED bars corresponding to its 2 charging channels. When the green LEDs light up, the batteries are charging, and when they turn off, the charging is complete. If they blink, it means that the batteries cannot be charged. The springs and contacts in the slots are very good.
I measured a maximum power consumption at AC230V of 5.7W, which is very close to the 6W stated by the manufacturer. In standby mode without batteries in the slots, its consumption is zero Watts. The output voltage of the charged batteries reaches up to 1.46V, which means that the Energizer Accu Recharge Universal charges the 1.2V rechargeable NiMH batteries more and much better than other similar chargers. Therefore, it is a fair choice for rechargeable batteries and undoubtedly the best charger in the entire Energizer Accu Recharge series.

The Ugreen HDMI to VGA adapter cable comes in excellent sealed packaging with a micro USB power cable that I did not use. It is suitable for computer monitors, televisions, projectors, and generally any device with a VGA input port. The adapter casing is made of glossy plastic. The 16 cm cable that connects the two plugs is flat and quite durable.
I have been using the Ugreen adapter for 11 months on a computer that does not have a VGA output to connect to an old monitor with a resolution of 1920 x 1080, and it does a very good job. It also has a 3.5mm jack output for connecting the HDMI to speakers, which means it can also serve as an HDMI to Audio output adapter.
It is powered by a micro USB port, but in my case, it works without any additional power source. The only downside is that the connection is only one way, from HDMI out to VGA in (the opposite is not supported). This video includes unboxing, measurements of dimensions, as well as testing the HDMI-VGA adapter on a wired connection from a Dell Inspiron 15 laptop to a Panasonic TV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KcgdSGVvmsQ

In addition to the charger, the package includes detailed instructions in English and a useful 50cm USB-A to micro USB cable. It has a micro USB input, USB Type-A output (for using the charger as a power bank), 5 protections for the batteries, and 3 special functions. It has a sturdy construction with a fairly good charging slot spring. It is a compatible charger with almost all types and sizes of batteries, even with special batteries like LiFePO4. It has two charging current options of 0.5 and 1A. For NiMH or NiCd charging, the options are 0.1 and 0.5A. The supported charging protocols of the Type-A output are: Apple 5V/0.5A and BC1.2 DCP 5V/1.5A. At this low price, the absence of fast charging QC, PD is justified, as the function of this particular integrated power bank is more for emergency charging needs. Simple and practical LED charging indicators, current selection, etc. The Liitokala Lii-100 charger does not overheat at all, even in the summer. It also automatically stops charging when it is completed. I measured a maximum charging current of 0.98A 5V, which is equivalent to almost 5W. All the batteries I tested on the Lii-100 charged without any problems. Its weight and dimensions are 44g and 113 x 38 x 30 mm respectively. If it were a few millimeters longer, it could easily charge 20700, 21700 batteries. The following video contains many compatibility tests with various batteries (type and size) as well as measurements of the charger's input and output maximum values: https://youtu.be/6hxXndIJSWg

This is my first be quiet! power supply (700W version). I have installed it in my mid-range PC (MSI MAG B560 Tomahawk, Intel Core i5-11400, Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 2x8GB, WD HDD 3.5", Crucial SDD 2.5", Asus BluRay Drive 5.25").
The power supply comes in a simple box, wrapped in bubble wrap bag without unfortunately any pouch even though it is a B-tier category intended for mid-range and high-end builds. It comes with 7 internal cables (5 of which are detachable) and a classic AC power cable 1.4m long. The internal cables are all short, which means they are not suitable for most full towers.
The overall construction of the PSU unit is of high quality, heavy (1729g), flawless and has 2 non-detachable sleeved cables: 1 for motherboard (20+4pin) 550mm and 1 for CPU (4+4pin) 600mm. The power supply operates flawlessly, I did not notice any restarts or overheating.
The noise of the very good fan is minimal at low and medium loads (up to 560W) at higher loads above 665W, which is prohibited for use, the intensity exceeds 30db. Even when I tested it in demanding rendering, the sound was low and I had to bring my ear close to the back of the case to hear it.
It was tested and passed the compatibility test with APC line-interactive UPS. I will come back with an update on its performance at high loads as soon as I add a graphics card to my system. In this video, I have included measurements of cable/PSU dimensions, fan noise samples, output voltages, and many other tests of the be quiet! 700W power supply: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dH5lX180K14

I tried the Meliconi AMP200 amplifier on a television with weak signal (about 40% quality and 85% intensity) by connecting two relatively good quality 1.5-meter IEC antenna cables. While the amplifier initially worked extremely well, providing 100% signal on all channels, after 1 day the problems reappeared and the signal dropped below 20% on all nationwide channels. The signal quality was even worse on HD channels. After changing the cables, restarting the amplifier, and retuning the channels, I did not see any improvement in the significant pixelation issue. In reality, this amplifier creates more interference in the image than signal enhancement. I should note that I connected only one television. To make sure before writing this negative review, I bought an amplifier from a major satellite company (it cost me 6 euros more than the Meliconi) and the problem was immediately solved. For those curious to see a detailed demonstration of how poor the performance of the Meliconi AMP200 amplifier is, I have made a video with tests in front of the camera, check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AcH8wTum07A
