USB-C PD chargers for travel

Post by Asposium »

Hi,

Seeking a USB-C PD charger for bikepacking, hiking, and travel.
Wondering if fellow boners have discovered an interesting charger.

My requirements:
+ Two USB-C PD sockets
+ At least 20W per socket (any more than 20W per socket is pointless)
- If greater than 40W output then symmetrical power splitting
+ UK and EU convertible
+ Compact
+ Available in UK :lol:

This charger on Amazon seems to tick all the boxes, though never heard of the brand
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0936HGX55

Anyone discovered any others?

This is what I bought for the exact same reason, I spent the extra for the Anker brand:

I have a similar charger at work
Unfortunately the U.K. plug is fixed.
So would need to carry a U.K. to Euro adapter.

Ironically, the USA version of the Anker charger has removable mains plugs.
U.K. version is fixed. 🤷‍♀️

I've had a multi port Synchwire charger in constant use for 5+ years so I think the one you linked to should be fine.

After a recommendation on here (forget who it was, sorry) I bought the Minix one, which has 3 ports. Has worked well so far, as far as I can tell. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08 ... UTF8&psc=1

there is a review stating it can easily be separated from the plug adaptor plate when fitted into the socket. :shock:
Be careful else it exposes live electrical connections creating a potential deadly the electric shock hazard ~X( .
