If it was phone and watch, I’d have bought it as that’s much more useful (my AirPods can charge on the watch charger, so that would work for all three).
As is, though, I’d still need a separate watch charger, which is unfortunate
@kasona Yep, but generally this sort of product is cheap (sorry “affordable”) because they are on clearance because today 3-in-1 chargers are all the rage. So suck it up and pay full price for one of them, or buy this thing at deep discount.
Oh, or side Deal has this thing – apparently at a higher price. Beats me if that is because it was “way more overpriced” to start, or if being a watch/phone combo it is still in more demand (you can put the AirPods on the watch or phone pad and they charge, but I’m pretty sure the watch will not charge on the AirPods or phone chargers, which is a shame because I bought a different 2-in-1 a little bit ago for my office desk and it would have been nice if it were watch + phone not iPod+phone. The watch band holds it off the charge pad though so it doesn’t work. Maybe if I took the band off but that is way to inconvenient I’ll just use a separate watch charger!). Oh, the sidereal one also has active cooling so I assume it can charge the phone at 15W for longer before it has to step down to a lower wattage, but also I assume that means more noise wherever the charger lives from a fan buzzing.
Seen Moonraker first release and it was kick@ss for it’s time. Roger Moore was The James Bond. Believe Sean Connery did a couple off ones again later during this era also.
So they went with a Moonraker picture in the email today because of Artemis II. Let’s see if the Artemis II crew brought a “Stores.com” flag to plant on the moon by dropping out of the spacecraft while flying by the moon.
Not that i actually have any faith the Artemis II will work but sure why not.
@Joedetroit@richrauch Yes! I used an IPhoneSE 2 (2020 model) for quite a while with a magsafe case on it and it worked great with a number of magsafe chargers and stands.
Great little charger on my desk, but the cable did not work. I had to use a different USB-C cable. So before you return it, try a different cable. (And cut the original cable with a pair of scissors. )
I actually bought the other one that had the watch and the headphone charger capability also, but this one is more compact. Much better for travel.
So mind just arrived yesterday. It works great on my desk, and I’m pretty happy with it for the price. But I’m feeling a little crazy that i can’t figure out what the little button on the side does (if anything). On one side are the LEDs that indicate charging etc, on the other is a weird button that doesn’t seem to do anything as far as I can tell. It has a weird little symbol next to it that looks like maybe its supposed to indicate like wind or something? I can’t figure it out, and as far as I can tell its not mentioned in the manual that came with it at all.
@Brandonshire Nevermind. No sooner has I posted this than I realized the button helps release the suction cup on the bottom. (And the manual does in fact mention that, I just missed it).

@dvermilion why lol?
@dvermilion I bought a set of these for around $10, solved the problem
Need one that charges watch too. Pass.

@kasona @theonetruestrip Our $39.99 Daily Deal is still live on this model:
@kasona @troy I don’t really need one, but…
I’m in!
Movie Reference is Moonraker James Bond!

Best thing about this deal might be the “more” link to the zens.tech page about Qi, Qi2, etc. and the devices that support them. Good to know! (https://zens.tech/pages/phones-with-wireless-charging-technology)
@richrauch so that link says that this charger will work with the iPhone S/E (2022). I just gotta get the right case for it, correct?
@Joedetroit @richrauch Yes! I used an IPhoneSE 2 (2020 model) for quite a while with a magsafe case on it and it worked great with a number of magsafe chargers and stands.
What’s the deal with slide #7?
