Chargeasap Omega 100 and 200W USB-C charger hands-on review

Based on these tests, I can’t recommend the Chargeasap 100W Omega for use during intensive tasks such as gaming. Its FLIR camera results from that part of its testing were particularly alarming in my opinion (as was the smell, although this may have been due to its pre-production status), especially given the “high-quality GaN”, “graphene membrane” and “nano heat-sink” touted as some of its best attributes by its OEM. 

Therefore, unless these issues are ironed out in “retail” units, this is not something to use on a daily basis – or in a situation where it might be the only power brick you have. (By the way, if this is the case, don’t stick it back in your bag immediately after use.)

On the other hand, I feel better about the idea of using the 200W SKU regularly. It’s impressively powerful for something of its size and, with its four ports, is also more convenient. Therefore, it’s a shame that this one loses the portability advantages of its 100W sibling.

Consumers who might be able to live with these issues can still get the Chargeasap 100W and 200W Omega at prices of US$60 and $90, respectively, on the Indiegogo page (correct at time of writing).
