PD resets during heat up tip [Pinecil V2]
#1
Strange power behaviour of chain: Baseus 100W GAN Charger + Pinecil V2(+short tip).
After pressing button to heat up the solder tip, Pinecil starts heating, and in some moment Charger resets TypeC output, I press again it tries to heat up again and resets again, and after several tries, it reach threshold temperature and after that I can solder easily. Seems not enough power, and charger detects power peaks and resets output.
This is 100W charger from Baseus:  https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003117435688.html , I am using 100W TypeC cable.
I tried other cables, doesnt help. I tried to limit power in Pinecil's "advanced seting" to 65 to 50 W to 40W - doesnt help.
I tried to disconnect all other consumers, and remain only Pinecil connected to this Charger - doesnt help.
This Baseus charges my 65W Lenovo laptop easily.

Is there ideas what to check? Maybe some other advanced settings to try? Huh

If charger drops to 15V PD mode, it works stable.
