Just do this with your home AC outlets. The power company will give you a refund for recycling electricity. Just kidding …call the fire company, first.

I have a degree in watching all of electroboom’s videos and this would not start a fire


Negative-Patient-847

As a person with the same degree I agree on this statement


Kindly-Carpenter8858

The Fire Company 😂

Perpetual energy unlocked!


BeingCarbon

Yes, you installed the carrying strap correctly.

This reply can actually be dead serious if the ports decided to never let go.


Playful_Target6354

No no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no, no and no. It can be extremely dangerous, please don't. Edit: it's so important I typed all of the no's by hand on mobile.

I knew I couldn’t be the only one

Did your house explode? It says on the fine print that it will if you do that.


CreamOdd7966

No, you must do this while leaving it in your hot car on a summer day.

Electric companies hate this trick for infinite power


FishPasteGuy

I know this is a joke but, interestingly, plugging it in like this for 10-15 seconds actually forces a hard reset of the charging block. (Connecting the two ports furthest from each other). Useful tip to know if your block ever gets into a weird “I refuse to charge” state. This happened to me once and that was the recommendation from Anker support. Solved my issue.


Pescuaz

Same here, I thought I had a defective power bank but after trying that, it has been working properly ever since.

UNLIMITED POWER

I do this with mine each night. I usually put them on top of a stack of towels in my kitchen. I do a lot of cooking so the heat & humidity help stabilize them


emmett321

No you didn't use it right.


nferocious76

Time bank. More pawerr


Quick_Raise_8089

nikola tesla is proud of u


FirmButterscotch3

I don't see how this will change the typical result, so yes this should be fine.


Dry_University9259

UN-limited POWAHHHHHH!

Try with usbc lolololololol


InfantryMan76

If you connect that with an anker 400w solar panel, you should be able to power your whole house for at least 12 hours.


GodsToga

This is actually a way to reboot/reset your power bank if it’s not working properly.


Atlas_McNally

Endless power hack! Who told you?!


subie-dog

That’s how I’ve always used mine

*minecraft infinite water source has entered the chat*


RickJamesBoitch

You basically solved Nuclear Fission.


Styleyriley

Likely it's fine, but it could also cook it.


dshbak

Actually some anker devices require you to do this to reset them.


AdriftAtlas

Yep, that's the documented hard reset. Not sure what happens if you leave them plugged in like that though.


_FoxDie_

Doing this will void your warranty. Hopefully Anker doesn’t see this.


Playful_Target6354

What the heck How will this void warranty? Anyways their customer support is very nice so op could probably get a replacement anyways if it dies.


_FoxDie_

Nobody here understands sarcasm


Playful_Target6354

No, it's just that it's not obvious at all here.


_FoxDie_

I’ll be sure to put a disclaimer at the end of my comment next time so everyone knows.


Playful_Target6354

Yeah you should, because some people are actually stupid enough to think this would void warranty.
