Multi-Device Charging

CHARGING YOUR POWER BANK
PRO TIP
If your laptop came with a USB-C charger it can be used to fast-charge your Charge 100 Max.
PASS-THROUGH CHARGING
Charge 100 Max can simultaneously accept charge from a dedicated source and provide charge out to connected devices. Note the maximum charge-in power is 65W. So if connected devices are drawing more than the charge supply, the internal battery will eventually drain to 0%.
BI-DIRECTIONAL DEVICES
In normal use, Charge 100 Max will charge automatically from a standard wall charger with no interaction required.
- Some USB-C PD-enabled devices have ports that can act bi-directionally as either a SOURCE (providing charge output) or a SINK (accepting charge input). In some rare occasions, you may want to charge up your power bank from a laptop, tablet, power bank or power station that is acting as a bi-directional device. 0:809
- The C1 USB-C PD port on Charge 100 MAX will default to SOURCE or CHARGE OUT when connected to another bi-directional device such as the BioLite BaseCharge Power Station.
- To allow the C1 port to accept a charge FROM a bi-directional device, double press the Action Button. To return the C1 port to provide a charge TO a bi-directional device, double pres the Action Button again.
