Powerbanks tested with DHO800/900

It could be interesting to share our experiences with DHO800/900 powered by a powerbank.
I begin by a failed !

Anker 737  24,000mAh (powercore 24k) FAILED !
This powerbank is well rated on many reviews, but sadly my Rigol DHO804 powerred by this powerbank does not complete boot correctly. Yes it power up and begin to boot, but failed to run the app, something wrong happend at about 30s, just when the power needed grow up, from about 12-18W to more than 30W.
Tested with the provided 140W cable and many others.

When I have a moment I would use the PD listener function of the FNB58 to investigate.
But for now my workaround, is to use the FNB58 to trigger 15V/3A, it works as this.
Autonomy tested with a load of 37W 2h15min (in fact the average load being less than 37W)

This powerbank



FNB58 PD trigger function


Interresting to note, that 12V is missing on the powerbank datasheet but in fact it is available

Has anyone come across a powerbank that fully works without issue?  What is the requirement?

[Proxy64]

Here result of the PD listener.
Just plug the power supply (power led green then red, auto boot off).

Provided LiteON adaptor


Anker 737, there is one more option (6. programmable power source) it ask for this one !

[Silver_Is_Money]

Here result of the PD listener.

So the Anker 737 will work.  Correct?

[idolclub]

Rigol DHO800 / 900 can work with ZMI PowerPack No. 20 Model QB826G (210W / 25000mAh).

My several years old Xiaomi powerbank 3 20000 mAh works with the DHO914S. I think one should look for the 50W ones.

How about this powerbank?  https://www.amazon.com/Charging-50000mAh-Portable-Compatible-External/dp/B0CHJRW5K5/ref=sr_1_3?crid=12WDPKYL1Z6O5&keywords=power+bank+fast+charging+50000mah%2C+65w+laptop+portable+charger&qid=1704762752&sprefix=Power+Bank+Fast+Charging+50000mAh%2C+65W+Laptop+Portable+Charger%2Caps%2C455&sr=8-3

... Interresting to note, that 12V is missing on the powerbank datasheet but in fact it is available

I doubt the Anker 737 supports PD12v as none of the protocol triggers I tested with can activate 12v in power delivery regi on these 140w Anker powerbanks.

When you test for PD-listner on your 737, how do you hook up your Anker737 to the FNB58?
Fx a description or a picture of your setup.?

These are the protocols, I get greenlit from the Ankers737 PD protocol inventory.

Yes that why I noticed that on my initial post.
I saw some reviews with the 12V missing, I saw many complaints from Mavick users about the missing 12V.
So maybe they have made an update, maybe it’s only software, I don’t know!
But below a picture, I trigged for 12V/3A and as you can see on the dummy load screen, it’s really 12V sinking 1A for test.

I don’t know this one and they don’t provide informations about supported protocols,but I would say:
Stay away from mysterious China brand with big promesses, often they don’t have the capacity annouced on marketing flyer.  Brand like Baseus, Liteon, Shaargeek, Anker and many others you will find online reviews.
For the issue with the Anker and the DHO, probably better to avoid PD3.1 maybe the scope has an issue with this, maybe.

Have you tested the actual output of the 737 to check what voltage it is delivering from the bank to the FNB58 fx with a USB meter in between and its not some fluke in the FNB58 that / bulks it down, Anker is pretty is pretty clear cut, the A1289 does not support 12V PD, and no revisions of the A1289 should have that protocol support, according to them.
Reached out to see if the A1289 is pushed under different fimware revisions or upgradeable.

Anker respons
The Anker 737 Power Bank (PowerCore 24K, model A1289) does not support 12V/3A output. If some users claim that they got 12V PD output, it might be due to a misunderstanding or a specific interaction with their devices that could be misinterpreted as 12V support. As of the information provided, there is no indication that later revisions of the PowerCore 24 (Anker 737) include the ability to output 12V PD.

It seems its a conclusion that Anker have taken when Apple dont support 12vPD as Anker tries to be pretty hardtied into Apples ecosystem..

Let's see what Anker responds, as you're quoting a technician from Anker support that was under the clear-cut belief that no variants of A1289/Anker737 had 12V PD implemented, but Anker got quite a portfolio of products, so there is a chance they (fx western orientated support technician) simply aint up to date if there are changes. and perhaps regional..
Not to mention, it could also be relevant to get an idea of what serie-nr or production stats new revisions took place - but as I exampled to you above, my unit doesn't carry PD 12v from its native TypeC PD sockets, so that should be written in stone by now, PD-listener screenshot or not - and likely the same with most units here in the West.

Been an issue for some since the Anker 737 came out a year or two back and seems to go hand in hand with Apple's lack of 12V PD. https://www.astroworldcreations.com/blog/powering-your-rig-with-usb-power-delivery

You seem to be in Thailand, and your Anker737 still got screencover on it, so I reckon you likely just got it... where did you purchase it from, local in Thailand, or CN import like Aliexpress etc?
Here in Europe, the 737 looks to be on the verge of being discontinued and not in stock, seemed they were cleared at a reduced price.
https://www.anker.com/eu-en/products/a1289?ref=naviMenu&variant=42109767549118

Anker refers to newer models, like the Prime series..
in the USA they also seem to be clearing stock of older 737 units with a -40% to 45% reduction 159/149 down to 91US
https://www.anker.com/products/a1289?variant=41974285041814

Or maybe they are simply clearing stock, of older revisions..

No the FNB58 will not add missing sources capatibilities,

Ofcourse it does.. FNB58 are able to add missing ablelities , it will even give you 12V PD on powerbank units that don't have it   
- as explained my unit doesn't support 12V PD (like most units) but the FNB58 can in fact recreate a 12V PD protocol, even from a socket that aren't intended for any PD support, like USB-A, - the FNB58 does it by converting the Qualcomm fast-charge into 12V PD power delivery signal.

So 12V PD products can trigger and run on 12v PD signal from the Anker737, but it's limited to sub 30W (12v/2.5A) its called "QC to PD converting", and its limited to the older power delivery standard PD 2.0.
Alongside the FNB58 offers the ability to regulate the voltage down to your heart's desire by giving access to different voltage adjustment protocols that both Qualcomm & Power Delivery have, alongside other vendors' semicharge protocols.

Anyway - as mentioned, it's a shame with your new power bank, and its doesn't work with your new Rigol scope as it's a nice power bank..
as you can see above' my unit (Anker737) does in fact work with Rigol's new TypeC products and it doesn't make a 12v dip, it stays continuously at 15v from scratch to boot, so maybe you can put your hat on the tiny "hope" that Rigol can change it thru future firmware..

[Proxy64]

Ofcourse it does.. FNB58 are able to add missing capatibilities , it will even give you 12V PD on powerbank units that don't have it   

Sorry, no it doesn’t, you are confusing PD trigger function and QC to PD converter function, in this case it make a protocol exchange between QC and PD, so if you have an output QC 12V it will convert the protocol to give an PD 12V output (it make change only on the protocol layer).

As you said, anyway, yes I think you are right about localization, I live in Thailand and I got it directly from an authorized seller in China, that should explain th difference.

I don’t mind about the issue with the dho800, because I don’t buy it especially for that and if I need it I can use it with the fnb58 trigged on 15V/3A in this way it works. Really a good Swiss Army knife this FNB58

Not sure what your meaning? "makes only changes on the protocol layer".. of course, what else, should it do?
"FNB58 will not add missing capabilities" when it in fact does that... it adds a 12v PD standard to fx a power bank that doesn't have it, and from a USB-A socket that never will have PD-officially.

When you can use the FNB58 to convert the QC/Qualcomm charge protocol into a Power delivery protocol (PD) you suddenly can use 12v PD products from a power bank that simply doesn't have 12V PD support.. that is, in fact, adding "features" the item didn't have or supported.
Not to mention having 12V PD Power delivery from a USB-A socket, also a feature that is added by FNB58 that you're not gonna obtain natively since PD is centered around TypeC sockets, not to mention getting 3x PD outputs on a unit that only supports 2x PD out, so the FNB58 is certainly adding new features

These two protocols come from two competing backlands.. QC is Qualcomm's own charging protocol (Qualcomm is the corp behind Snap Dragon SoC, Aptx etc) while Power delivery [PD] is from USB-IF (Implementers Forum) a consortium of technology companies where the board reflects representatives from a lot of big dogs on campus.. fx Apple, HP, Intel, Microsoft, Renesas, STMicroelectronics, Texas Instruments etc. (USB-IF is generally classified as a non-profit organization)

Qualcomm is certainly not to fund of Power Delivery (PD) as they feel big tech for years been stigmatizing their Quick Charge standard (QC) - which they certainly have but for good reasons.
https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2016/11/google-threatens-qualcomm-quick-charge-with-android-incompatibility/

if I need it I can use it with the fnb58 trigged on 15V/3A in this way it works. Really a good Swiss Army knife this FNB58 

There you go, stay locked in 15v PD, so it could look like it's the 12V dip on your DHO800 bootup phase that is messing it up.
That would be a shame if it's that new 12V PD feature that seems to be implemented on your new Anker737 from CN, that is choking & undermining a direct use-case, which is very unlikely as I have no problems with PD3.0 powerbanks that include. 12v PD, it will not dip to 12V,, it stays in 15v from start to boot

Either way, you got it to work with your Anker737, even though it sounds far from ideal to have to trigger with FNB58 every time, but if it works when you got it triggered in 15V3A with FNB58 then just get a locked 15V PD decoy cable or make the cable yourself, then you won't have to trigger with FNB58, and can run your new power bank directly with your scope.

Today I got an email from Anker:

We want to inform you that, after confirming with our backend team, we have implemented an improvement to our 737 power bank. The latest version now includes an additional charging tier of 12V/3A, designed to provide you with more versatility and efficiency in your charging needs.

I can confirm that Essager PB187 65W "15000mAh" does work for DHO924S. No tests done in terms of how long it will last and what it does to the noise floor - my fully-floating sessions were fairly short and on fairly large signals.

I can CONFIRM that even if new generation IT DOES NOT WORK with RIGOL DHO914.
Even 140W Seires 7 Generation 2 these beefy PB does freeze the Rigol at startup since cannot go beyond 20W. EITHER plugged in C1 and in C2 jacks. See attach
DO NOT BUY IT.

Not sure what Rigol had in mind with their DHOxxx line, and could look like they placed themself between two chairs 12V PD & 15V PD
As mentioned newer products from Rigol, using the same form factor, works on all the high current powerbanks I got access to.
An example of the start-up cycle stays constantly in 15v PD.

You can obviously decoy trigger a locked 15V PD, then it should work according to the info on page1.
What I do with my Micsig scope that doesnt have native PD, so can use most of these PD powerbanks with that unit.

[Proxy64]

@Houseman you can use a board like this one, to trig 15V/3A
Maybe there is version with USB-C male to USB-C female, I don’t know.

And you know, I don’t think Anker is guilty in this case with the Rigol DHO800/900

Thank You all. Would like to know a way to measure how much noise in injected into the rigol via power supply with this setup.
And why the power supply provides 12V instead of 15V provided by the powerbank

[ebastler]

And why the power supply provides 12V instead of 15V provided by the powerbank

Where "the power supply" means which power supply??

Only the very early power supplies shipped with beta units (and maybe to early Chinese customers) were of the cheap fixed 12V type described in the user manual. All DHO800/900 scopes shipped to the Western world should come with proper supplies which negotiate the voltage via the USB PD protocol, and should negotiate 15V.

Rigol have just neglected to update the user manual. Or did you actually measure 12V being used with your scope's power supply?

[Demon Xanth]

Baesus 140W powerbank DOES NOT work works on the C2 output, but not the C1 input/output. Very curious.

Edit:
The C2 and USB-A outlets cut out due to lack of current, the C1 seems to have a handshaking issue. The 65W works fine though.

[shapirus]

This one works too:




The PSU here is a 69W Ugreen. The battery is a 3s LiPo.

Curiously, just like the Baseus mentioned in the previous post, it doesn't work (or the scope doesn't work) on port USB-C1. The other two, USB-C2 and type A, work fine.

update: I checked the specs, and now it's obvious: the specs state 20W max on port C1, 60W max on port C2. But then again, it says max 22.5W on port USB-A, and the scope works fine powered from that port.

[Houseman]

Nice!.
Isn't it a little bit undervoltage powered?
I see 11,1V instead of minimum 12V
How long does it last?

[Houseman]

Ah, ok got it now.
It is not just a cigar plug.

[shapirus]

Ah, ok got it now.
It is not just a cigar plug.

But it is. It's a plain automotive 12V USB power supply designed for the cigarette lighter socket, only of the fancier ones -- higher power and with support of PD, QC and all the type C paraphernalia.

How long does it last?

Haven't measured. Will be equal to: battery energy capacity * DC/DC converter efficiency * wires and connectors loss factor / scope power. Very rougly, that's a 50 Wh battery, let's assume 80% conversion efficiency, then at 35 W consumption it's going to last 50 Wh * 0.8 / 35 W ~= 1.14 h.

Speaking of min voltage, it seems to work fine at (currently) ~11V, and there's really no reason for it not to: there's a plain switching buck-boost converter inside, and they typically have a wide range of acceptable input voltages. I will test it later with a lab PSU to see how low a voltage it can accept on the input.

I can confirm that the INIU 25000mAh unit works fine - https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B08VDJP7WN
I timed it, and it gives almost exactly two hours out of a 100% charge.
That's not overly impressive, as at 3A draw it mathematically should be over 7 hours, and even allowing for losses it would be nice to have more than 25% of the power delivered.
But, if two hours is sufficient, then this model works fine and is nice and cheap.
I've also ordered a 40,000mAh unit to test, and I'll post if it works or not.  It's a bit of a minefield choosing the packs, as some are only 5V, and many split their current over several ports, rather than a single one with 15V@3A as we require.

No that's actually good enough. It's 25000 mAh at 3.7 V -- the usual disgusting trick of the powerbank manufacturers who don't specify capacity at the actual battery voltage, or, better, energy capacity. Always use energy -- measured in Wh -- to estimate the battery run time. This makes the battery 25 Ah * 3.7 V = ~92 Wh, and at 35 W power draw it theoretically means slightly over 2.6 hours. Apply the conversion losses and the chinese Ah derating, and 2 hours run time doesn't look bad at all.

Interesting, I have the same one and have no issues running the scope.
I can use it in either output socket (45W or 100W) and I get about 110mins out of a full charge.
The pack is rated to 3A@15V, which meets the requirements.

That is interesting, and I see what you mean. I guess it's a tricky one to specify accurately, as you can only specify the battery capacity as it supports so many voltages. It is a bit disappointing though!

The good thing about this particular pack is that it also works in pass-through, so you can leave it connected and charge it (quite slowly) while running the scope.

I'm just running a test on a 40000mAh pack to see how that fares, but it doesn't support pass-through, so may not be worth the extra hassle. It reports 2.3-2.4A of current draw at 15V, so on that basis (40Ah * 3.7V = 148W) it's got over 4 hours of running.
I'll post up the actual running time once the scope dies

This is exactly the reason why specifying not charge, but energy capacity, in Watt-hours, and conversion efficiency at different output voltages, is the right and universal way of doing it. Having these two, the customer can adequately compare different powerbanks and estimate how long they are going to last in a particular scenario.

It reports 2.3-2.4A of current draw at 15V, so on that basis (40Ah * 3.7V = 148W)

Make sure you make no mistake in units calculation to avoid misunderstanding the concepts of power, current, charge, and energy. Multiplying Ah and Volts won't yield Watts:

1 A = 1 C / 1 s [current, aka charge over time]
1 W = 1 J/s [power, aka energy over time]
1 A * 1 V = 1W
1 A*h = 1 A * 1 h = 1 A * 3600 s = 3600 C [charge]
1 W*h = 1 A*h * 1 V = 1 W * 1 h = 1 W * 3600 s = 3600 W*s = 3600 J [energy]

I purchased a Baseus Model BS-30KP365 for a USB Soldering Iron and for other general purpose usage awhile back.

Ran my DHO924 for an hour and 45 minutes today and it took the pack fully charged down to 56 percent. Negotiated for 15vdc and ran 2.1-2.2 amps.

I'm just running a test on a 40000mAh pack to see how that fares, but it doesn't support pass-through, so may not be worth the extra hassle. It reports 2.3-2.4A of current draw at 15V, so on that basis (40Ah * 3.7V = 148W) it's got over 4 hours of running.
I'll post up the actual running time once the scope dies

Yes, I get almost exactly 4 hours of running from the ROMOSS 65W 40,000 mAh pack.
The only thing I'm not keen on is that it only has a single USB-C ports, so it doesn't support pass-through and you can't leave it connected to recharge when the scope is powered off.
