130W laptop charger with the Air 3s

[Mrktn]

I bought an Anker 100w charging brick, and used the stock USB-C cable and one of those small devices that plug in-line with the cable to measure wattage and all that, and I was getting only 35-37W. I then bought a USB-C cable that is rated to 240W, and I STILL get 35-37W. It doesn't seem like it takes to long to charge the batteries, but I'm just curious if there's something up.

To put it into context if it’s any help, I have the 3 battery OEM DJI charging hub for the Air 3S and the OEM DJI 65w charger and each battery takes 59 minutes from approx 10% charge state.

I'm going to have to time it the next time I charge.

Does the Anker charger meet the PD 3.0 or greater spec? That's required for fast charging. Also note that the charging rate will decrease as you get closer to 100% charge. Approximately how full was your battery when your measured the wattage?

I'm not worried about fast charging, I'm just wondering if the Anker brick isn't working properly. I had 3 batteries in the charger, all 3 were at roughly 40-50% capacity. Not sure about the PD 3.0 spec. This charger was recommended by a few Air 3S users on YouTube (of course... ugh...). Here is the link:

I have the exact same one (along with another wall plug Anker charger and a couple of their power banks) and always get ~65W out of it. Using it to charge the Avata 2 I'd get either ~30W or ~60W depending on the battery's SoC and whether the hub was dual-charging. It sounds like your charger is defective.
To rule out the hub being the issue, you can try plugging the charger to the drone directly with a battery inserted. You should also get ~65W charge rate.
