MultiChargers for travel

[N9JIG]

Being that I not only drink the Apple KoolAid but literally bathe in it I have a mess of various chargers and cables. Now that I will be traveling again I am working on my travel bag. Before I used a simple 6-port USB-A Multicharger that covered all of my devices aside from my MacBook.

I am looking for a decent multiport charger solution that has at least 6 USB ports, with at least 2 be powerful enough for an iPad Pro and has a mix of USB-C and USB-A ports. I have to have at least 2 A's (Watch and a radio device) and 2 C's (iPad, iPhone), the remaining could be either A or C.

Charging a MacBook Pro is not needed, I will use the MagSafe adapter for that.

I could use a dock/hub I suppose but I prefer a separate charging solution.

Any suggestions?

i've been looking for one of these too, for the exact same reason. i don't think they exist.

What six devices are you needing to charge at the same time?

I travel with the MoPoint 100w GaN charger, 3 x USB-C and 1 x USB-A. Never had an issue, it’s small and comes with small adapters for most countries

I suppose you could add one of these

I ended up buying this one:

Fast Charger, Sacrack 100W GaN Compact 6 Port Charging Station, Portable Wall Charger Adapter 3 USB C and 3 QC USB A for All iPad iPhone 14 13 12 11 Pro Max Pixel Note Galaxy

It should arrive in the AM, it has 3 USB-A and 3 USB-C ports.

I will be charging an iPhone 13ProMax, an iPad Air5, an Apple Watch, AirPods, a gimbal and a radio. I can use the 3 "C" ports for the iPad, iPhone and gimbal and the "A" ports for the rest.

Assuming that this works well for me the next month before my first trip it looks like it will fit the bill.

Hope it works for you… I travel with MacBook Air, iPadPro 11, iPhone 13Pro max, AirPods Pro, Apple Watch. Never had an instance to need to charge them all at the same time ??‍♂️

I use each of these devices pretty much all day long on these trips so I need to make sure they are fully charged overnight. At home it is no problem but on the road I prefer to have them all fully charged and ready to work all day long. I don't have access to charging during the day often so this will help prevent the need.

Just be certain you buy from established/high quality charger makers. I bought a Hyperjuice stackable 100w and on it's face it is a great idea. It just killed my iPad and a few other electronics after it failed and is pulsing > 60volts on the USB-C port.

Just a heads up... This just dropped

I just got back from a week-long trip and used the Sacrack charger (below) each night to charge my iPhone, Watch, iPad, gimbal, AirPods and a radio. I had no issues at all, each device was fully charged and ready to go by the time I got up and the device exuded no noticeable heat.

I call it a win!

How about 2 3 port chargers instead of one big one. That way you can place them in different places. But yah having multi port chargers have been a game changer.

I think anker make a 5 or 6 port GAN charger, you may even find one with USB-C PD capable of charging the macbook.

I use a little 2 port one (usb A + usb c) and it does a good job.

 

[frownface]

looks like they only do up to 4 port

Doesn't look very travel friendly. And if you go international, you'll need an adapter
