The Amazon listing for the nano lists as it working with AirPods. Could this be a slip up and confirmation on a new AirPods case coming?
 
I've haven't bought into the wireless charging power banks because I assume there's a significant efficiency hit charging from a battery via Qi. Anyone know what it is?

I really like the 3-in-1 desktop charger, might consider it for my bedside table.
I just wish companies would put an additional USB-C port on these to neatly plug a cable for iPad/ Kindle / Nintendo Switch / whatever. I’ve seen some models who do but they either look cheap/ugly/don’t have AppleWatch fast charging.

Still, considering that AppleWatch fast charging is finally mandatory I will probably wait for a year to see if a company finally does the exact thing I’m looking for:
-Flat design
-Apple Watch fast charging
-Can tilt Magsafe & AppleWatch charger for nightstand mode
-Aesthetic: good materials / no huge logo
-Not made by Belkin
-Magsafe for AirPods => I’ve given up on this one
-Additional USB-C port

I've bought 4 of the Anker power strips and they come with 2 USB-A and 1 USB-C ports. 2 of them have 3 outlets in a cube and 2 have 6 outlets in a short strip. These are to replace power strips that are 20-30 years old. My wife was using a power strip on the floor with 2 charging blocks and the prongs of the blocks stuck out a little which to me was a hazard.

This allowed me to eliminate one of the USB multichargers on my desk.

I wish Anker made power strips for the UK or EU.

These products seem to be US-only?

They only make US plugs 🔌. They used to make a travel kit, but it doesn’t exist anymore. One needs an adapter for the rest of the world if one doesn’t live in North America. The Anker charger itself support 120/240V inputs. Therefore, as long as one can plug it into the wall outlet wherever one lives, it will work.
 
OH BOY, mixed reviews here... I did see this Lightning Nano Power Bank on Amazon Prime Deal Day (still on sale + 30% off) yesterday. and just gave in, impulse buy and I thought Anker was ok? Should be here by 5pm Not a HUGE fan of how it sticks out of the bottom...ah well.

My 13 Pro Max battery is draining so much now just doing simple tasks after ios 17...seems worse on 17.0.3 😐

See what happens...
