Consumer electronics brand Satechi has released an ultra-powerful charger for Apple users called the 165W USB-C 4-Port PD GaN Charger.
The new charger is capable of supplying enough juice to fully power a 14" MacBook Pro at full speed while leaving enough residual power to charge three other devices. Key to the device's supercharging abilities is its use of Gallium Nitride (GaN) technology, a bandgap semiconductor that is more efficient than its widely used silicon counterpart. In addition, the device comes equipped with a stand to keep the unit propped up on a desk.
In total the165W USB-C 4-Port PD GaN Charger can charge up to four devices at one time, making it an ideal purchase for those consumers who tend to juggle multiple devices at one time.
