Satechi highlights included short circuit and over-temperature protection to deliver a safe charging experience too.
The aluminum adapter does this without being the least bit bulky, and the charger comes in two finishes including silver and space gray. The compact car charger also includes a standard 12W USB-A port for charging a second device. Satechi’s new $29.99 car charger features a USB-C port that supports fast charging including 60W power delivery to compatible laptops including MacBook Air and MacBook Pro - ideal for passenger work on a road trip. Satechi also has a new USB-C Lightning cable debuting alongside its 2-in-1 car charger. Satechi’s new 72W USB-C PD Car Charger is the latest accessory to use the latest charging technology, and the result is the ability to charge a MacBook on the road for a reasonable price. That’s changed thanks to USB-C PD which can actually deliver enough power to juice up energy-hungry computers during use. Charging on the go is one of the key benefits of Apple’s transition from MagSafe to USB-C on MacBooks, but early solutions struggled to maintain a charge during use on even the lowest power notebooks.
