      Is it possible to use the Spark mini as a powerbank for an USB-C connected Samrtphone?

      Thanks

        @matthias-voigt I’m not a ‘YouTuber’ but it seems to be input for power only, not output too on mine.

          @matthias-voigt I am not a YouTuber, but I have one of the super early bird Minis.

          I tried: I connected my Google Pixel 4a with my Spark Mini with a USB-C-to-USB-C cable.

          The phone tells me, and I also see on the Mini's LED, that the phone is supplying power to charge the Mini – not the other way around. The phone offers me to switch, but when I tap that option, a little while later it tells me that it was not able to reverse the charging direction.

          Long story short: The Mini receives power, but doesn't send out power.
