Nomad today introduced two new products in its Stellar Orange colorway, expanding the number of accessories it offers in the unique shade. Stellar Orange matches the Cosmic Orange color that Apple used for the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max.

The Stellar Orange Stand One is a 2-in–1 charging stand that's priced at $135. It was previously available in silver and carbide, but it now comes in bright orange. It is a Qi2 charger that charges a MagSafe iPhone at up to 25W.

The upright charger supports charging an iPhone in portrait or landscape orientation for Stand By, and it has a quality glass and metal build. A second Qi charger at the bottom of the stand allows AirPods to be charged at 5W.

The stand charges over USB-C, and you'll need to supply a 40W or better power adapter, but it does come with a braided nylon USB-C cable. An anti-slip base keeps it in place, as does the weight of the charger.

Nomad's Stellar Orange Tracking Card Pro is $39, and it is made to slip into a wallet to add Find My tracking capabilities. It connects to the Find My network so it is locatable in the Find My app's Items tab, and it can use nearby Apple devices to report its location if lost or stolen.

The Tracking Card Pro can charge using any Qi or MagSafe charger, and the battery lasts for up to 16 months. It is 2.5mm thin, which makes it three times thinner than an AirTag and better suited for use in a wallet. It does not support Precision Finding because Apple doesn't make the iPhone's Ultra Wideband chip available to third-party trackers.

Nomad's $135 Stellar Orange Stand One and $39 Stellar Orange Tracking Card Pro are available from the Nomad website as of today.

I have a wallet that has an airtag pocket on the outside, it’s pretty common (https://a.co/d/0feqyik4)

I love Nomad's products and I wanted to get this, but it doesn't have an Apple Watch charger built-in like what I currently use.
 
I assume that the piece of the tracking card that looks like the chip from a chip and pin credit card/debit card is actually the antenna? Anyone know for sure?

The 'chip' and magnetic strip on the back are purely cosmetic according to the manual. I assume to throw off someone who steals the wallet into thinking it's a CC and not a tracker.

I bought a bunch of standup MagSafe chi chargers for the house and they were $10 each. I guess orange and AirPods charging are an extra $125.

It's a 2.2/25W stand charger which go for a premium... nicer ones commonly go for over $100, even the cheap options tend to be at least $60/70. And Nomad's stuff in general tends to be on the pricier side.

Are this charger's Magsafe components visible on the pad, as shown in the photo?

And what's that odd plug sitting on the back of the iPhone?
 
Exact same question: "Are this charger's Magsafe components visible on the pad, as shown in the photo?"
1. I hope so
2. It looks pretty cool
 
That's a super thick card, roughly 3 credit cards thick. Many rechargable tracker cards are half that and less. Mine have a shorter battery life, but how hard is it to put it on a mag safe every 6 months? Also, a 4-pack costs $4 less than one of these. And an innocuous gray is better to be less visible in wallet and luggage.
