Since phone manufacturers decided not to include a charger in the box, many users have been forced to buy one in order to charge their new device. But with the idea of reducing the number of chargers at home and simplifying things, the trend now is to opt for models with multiple USB ports to be able to charge multiple devices simultaneously. And yes, this has evolved in such a way that extreme chargers now exist.
A 300W charger
In Ugreen they have presented the new Nexode 300Wa GaN charger which, as its name indicates, reaches 300W of power, which allows charging several devices at the same time in fast charging. To be exact, its main USB-C port is capable of offering 140W charging, while the other 3 USB-C ports offer 100W, 100W, and 45W respectively.
If you plug in a single device to get 140W, the charger is capable of taking a MacBook Pro from 0% to 56% in just 30 minutes of charging. Although perhaps what is interesting is that thanks to the number of ports it includes, it becomes the total charger, since we could charge 5 devices simultaneously at a high speed.
Powerful and protected
It may be that having so much gross power at your disposal does not offer you too much confidence, but in reality the device has many security mechanisms with which to have the load controlled at all times, and that is that an internal processor is in charge of carrying out 6,000 readings per minute to detect any type of overload that could lead to dangerous overheating.
In addition, the casing is made of flame retardant PVC, so in the event of an accident it will prevent the rapid spread of fire.
The price of carrying everything
These types of high power GaN chargers are not usually particularly cheap. In the case of the Nexode 300W, it will have an official price of 269 dollarsalthough the manufacturer has launched a launch promotion with which to enjoy a 25% discount.
Taking into account that devices like the iPhone 15 and the Pixel 8 are just around the corner, perhaps you should consider including a charger with these characteristics in your budget with which to charge your new mobile and other devices at maximum speed. And it is that as you already know, as long as the capacity and performance of the batteries are not increased, we only have to be able to charge quickly to get out of trouble in a matter of minutes.
