Description

This is a bracket for the Chuwi Vi8 that holds a 10000mah Xiaomi Powerbank and doubles as a tablet stand, though only in portrait mode. The bracket should also fit the 20000 mah xiaomi powerbank as well, from what I know it is just longer so the bracket will fit.

My Thingomatic has only a ~100mmx100mm build area, the length of the bracket is around 130mm, so to print it I rotated the bracket at 45 degrees and it fit within my build area.

The Chuwi Vi8 weighs ~350 grams, the xiaomi 10000mah powerbank weighs ~250 grams. I estimate the normal run time for the chuwi vi8 is ~4-6 hours, I have not tested how long the battery life is with the 10000mah power bank but I am guessing 15 hours I hope. If you slap on a 20000 xiaomi powerbank, it will probably have enough juice for a whole week of constant usage.

After you print it out, you should sand the inside that holds the battery, it is a very tight fit, just a minute of sanding is enough.

You need to print out 2 of the same brackets, one bracket for each end of the powerbank.

Update 6/25/15:
The thickness of the chuwi vi8 is ~ 10mm and the width is ~123mm, any tablet that is roughly the same size should work with the bracket.

Batterylife is not as great as I hoped, the internal battery inside the chuwi is good for about 3 hours of youtube playback, with the battery pack it is good for an additional 6 hours of youtube playback, so the total batterylife when playing youtube videos is ~8-10 hours depending on the brightness and volume. A 20000mah powerbank should be good for a total of around 15 hours of continuous youtube playback.
