Fake or Rip off Products
Fake USB C PSU
I purchased several USB chargers & tested
120W USB PSU from Aliexpress
120W advertised on Aliexpress with QC5 & PD
Supplying 5v at 9A but the specification for USB A is only 2.3A so could cause a fire!
The advert & printed on the unit states 120W & under test it maxes out at 45W i.e 5V at 9A max!
On selection of 9V, 12V or 20V with USB PD & QC3&5 does not work. After disassembly it is obvious due to lack of circuitry!
Plus to keep the weight up a piece of zinc coated steel as in the middle of the picture!

As the seller most likely has been harassed by UK authorities the seller will no longer sell these fake products to the UK so to see it change your ship to country to a less stringent safety standards country like the USA!
65W PSU from Aliexpress
65W advertised on Aliexpress with QC5 & PD
Supplying 5v at 7.5A but the specification for USB A is only 2.3A so could cause a fire!
The advert & printed on the unit states 65W & under test it maxes out at 55W i.e 5V at 7.5A max!
On selection of 9V, 12V or 20V with USB PD & QC3&5 does not work. After disassembly it is obvious due to lack of circuitry!
