Hands up, who else has a hot mess like this near their bed for plugging in numerous gadgets at the end of a day?
In recent years we have added more and more gadgets in to our lives that we use daily, phones, tablets, smart watches, camera...the list goes on. And with new technology comes an extra plug.
The Aukey 3 Port wall charger is a great solution to whittle down the space taken up by extension chords and surge protectors.
Save space by having 3 devices charge off a single plug socket. As an added bonus...charge your devices faster. The 3 USB outputs include 1 Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 port and two AIPower ports.
Qualcomm 3.0 is available now but that doesn't mean 2.0 is outdated. There are only a select few phones and tablets on the market that are compatible with 3.0 as this goes out. So the chances are, splashing out the extra money for a new version of this wall charger may be a waste right now.
at £13.99 from amazon this is a steal!
AI Power USB are intelligent outlets that talk to your device and prove the optimum power needed to charge the device as quickly as possible without damaging the device or its battery. For more information on the types of output see here.
Power banks are great (check out our review of the Iceworks 500mAh power bank here), but they can be limited and will only get you out of a jam once or twice per change. As i spend most of my time in an office or visiting family, I am never too far away from a plug socket. Since the start of this year i have carried this plug in my bag pack with a handful of cables for ever device. It's been everywhere with me for 7 months, saving me on multiple occasions, and i can honestly say it has held up brilliantly with no marks or damage. With a form factor not much bigger than a standard iPad charger but able to charge 3 devices at once, up to 75% faster, It has truly earned its place as a piece of essential kit for me, both at home and on the go.
