hi guys, been trawling through all the old posts on getting a power bank for my MPC One+
Very nearly pulled the trigger on a 19v
Glad I didn't, last night I noticed the MPC One+ runs on 12v/3A (36w) not 19v/3.42A (65w) like the MPC One or other MPCs.
I didn't find anything about this on here, so I'm sharing.
This makes finding a mobile battery a lot easier for an MPC One+ because you can directly use USB-C PD 12v native, instead of the various ways of trying to get 19v for the MPC One (like using a specialised 19v power bank or USB-C-PD @ 20v).
So long as your power bank is capable of PD and rated over 36W it should work fine on a Plus, without overvolting or doing anything undesirable.
I tested this last night with a 12v USB-C PD cable + 65w Charmast powerbank and it works perfectly.
The Charmast or similar can be fast charged via USB-C too.
Best of all this means my kids can have those school shoes they need because I'm not buying an extra powerbank. Joking obviously, I won't be buying shoes when there's all those plugins I need
