With the increasing prevalence of USB-C to X cables, the “old” USB chargers require adapters to accommodate the newer cables. So I’m thinking just byte the bullet and get a “modern” charger with PD that I can use to charge all my devices: MacBook, iPhone, iPad & Apple Watch
That way I only need one “brick” in my travel bag and can streamline my packing checklist. 💭

aukey is no longer available on Amazon [no idea why] but for comparison, this is the closest thing to it:

Will report back once it arrives. 👍

AUKEY Omnia Duo PA-B4S arrived yesterday and works well.
Quite heavy. But presumably it needs to be ...
cause it has hefty transformer and heatsink
to support up to 65W Power Delivery.

Would still prefer if it had more ports so that I could charge more devices simultaneously. 💻 📱 ⌚ etc.

Yesterday I picked up one of these:

The package includes a 30W USB-C ("Fast") Charger with Two ports!
So in addition to charging all 3 apple devices: iPhone, Apple Watch and AirPods,
it has a spare USB-C port for charging a fourth device!

Currently have all 3 devices charging here on my desk:

Wish I had found this sooner! Such a no-brainer.
If they come back into stock I will buy one for each desk and eliminate all other chargers!
