Accessory maker Satechi at CES 2019 on Tuesday unveiled a pair of nicely designed portable chargers that offer both USB-A and USB-C ports compliant with the Power Delivery protocol which was designed to let devices negotiate their power requirements.

The new accessories include a 75-watt dual travel charger and a 30-watt dual-port wall charger and both support the USB-C Power Delivery standard which protects the charger and the device it’s charging by negotiating power requirements.

30W dual-port wall charger

This compact adapter can charge your USB-C device or fast-charge an iPhone X or newer via its 18-watt Power Delivery port. It can also charge your 2018 iPad Pro (which ships with its own 18-watt adapter). For those wondering, fast charging gets your iPhone battery from dead to half the charge in just 30 minutes.

For compatibility’s sake, you also get an additional 12-watt USB-A port for faster charging of your iPhone, iPad or some other USB device. The accessory sports a foldable plug for easy storage, the 100-240V input range and a heat-resistant enclosure.

The more powerful charger in Satechi’s lineup was designed with travelers in mind.

It has a pair of 60W and 18W USB-C Power Delivery ports and a broad voltage input range (100-240V) allowing it to be used when traveling around the globe (with the right international plug). Given its features, this is an ideal charger for on-the-go charging of larger devices like the new MacBook Air, Nintendo Switch and more.

The accessory also includes a pair of extra USB-A ports for added convenience with a total output of 12W for easy charging of USB devices such as your iPhone and iPad.

On the go charging

These potable chargers are the ideal solution for on-the-go charging and are compatible with the USB-C standard and the fast-charge function. You can use them to charge your 2018 iPad Pro out of the box or any Lightning-based iOS device with a little help from Apple’s Lightning to USB-C cable (sold separately).

A USB-C charging cable is not included.

Pricing and availability

Satechi’s 75W dual travel charger is priced at $70 and available to purchase starting today from Amazon or the Satechi website. The 30W dual-port wall charger, priced at $30, can be pre-ordered starting today in Space Gray from Satechi.

It is scheduled to ship by January 31, 2019.
