TikTok grade IKEA charger video
Added 2023-04-10 20:23:09 +0000 UTCAnd for the youngsters - here's the sub 1 minute version that still manages to cram in most of the important bits.
Making shorts that contain useful technical data is extremely difficult. They're literally bite sized nuggets of data.
If I made a 6 second video where I plugged a lead into the charger and said "This is the new IKEA charger and it's quite well designed inside." it would probably get more views.

Bought two of them, together with a wireless charging dongle. Works like a charm. The quality of Ikea is not bad at all. I mean the electric stuff.

2023-04-12 04:29:04 +0000 UTCThe YouTube speech-to-text thing did an astonishing job, converting the name to "smyrhagal". In Sweden, we'd pronounce SMÅHAGEL something like small-without-the-l, hard-without-the-rd, gel-with-a-hard-g-and-everything-still there. Based on the long video, I'll make sure to buy a few SMYRHAGAL the next time I visit IKEA. Thanks for the tip!

2023-04-11 03:31:15 +0000 UTCYou did well for the amount of information you crammed in, without it sounding like the fine print they read at the end of a radio ad, sped up 2x. To be fair (?) to the TikTok generation, a 6s video of someone blowing raspberries directly at the camera would almost certainly get even more views.

2023-04-10 21:54:26 +0000 UTCIt cannot be easy to cut down a detailed review into such short bite-size chunks, but they are both still good and informative. I wonder if YouTube will still precede them with several minutes of adverts?
