Can I hold something personal ? I ’m a sucker for a skilful courser . minor chargers , fast charger , wireless chargers — you name it . Put a calibre charger in front of me , and I ’ll be a happy motor home .
Something I peculiarly enjoy is having specific charger for dissimilar social occasion . The Anker 747 , for example , is one of my favourite travelling battery charger . It ’s a great at - home charger , too , but since I ’ve been on the route a wad more this yr and often have the 747 in my travel bag , it ’s been going back - and - forward a lot — from my desk to my rucksack , back to my desk , and into my haversack again . I needed a newfangled chargerjustfor my home business office .

As fate would have it , Belkin reached out earlier this year and send me its BoostCharge 3 Port USB - ampere-second Wall Charger . It ’s not as knock-down as my beloved Anker battery charger and does n’t have as many larboard , but it ’s quickly turned into my raw favorite home business office battery charger .
So small, yet so many ports
One of the main reasonableness I love this Belkin battery charger so much is how small it is . At just three inch magniloquent when it ’s erect — it ’s atinylittle matter . And unlike my Anker 747 , which juts out when it ’s plug into an outlet , the Belkin charger is slant vertically .
Not only does that provide easy access code to the three USB - deoxycytidine monophosphate ports on the top , but it also means that it does n’t look so awkward when it ’s plugged in on my desk . Perhaps this trouble oneself me more than other family line , but that insidious alteration in aesthetics makes the Belkin charger look so much more discrete in my agency than the Anker 747 ever did .
And , yes , I did saythree USB - light speed port . Despite how tiny the Belkin courser is , you still get three ( very degraded ) USB - C ports . If you ’re just using one port at a time , each one is capable of up to 67 - James Watt maximal cathexis speeds — fast enough to charge laptops like theM3 MacBook Pro . And if you ’re using all three , you get 65W total charge speeding — 25W from the top embrasure and 20W from the other two . If you ’re charging a telephone set , keyboard , and mouse ( like I often am ) , that ’s still tidy sum of speeding .

Perfect for daily at-home charging
What I love most about this Belkin courser is just how discrete it is . It ’s been in my home government agency for the last few week , and it ’s faded into the background in an extremely positive mode . It has n’t overheat , fail to file my equipment when I expected it to , or caused any other type of friction . It just works , and it does so incredibly well . It ’s summary , fast , and has been precisely the eccentric of home position charger I ’ve been searching for .
The best part ? It ’s shockingly low-priced . Belkin sells this battery charger for just $ 45 , and you’re able to often line up it on sale for even less . At that price , it ’s a steal .
That ’s really all you demand to know about this one . Buying a battery charger should be an easy task , but with so many brands , model , and cost range to choose from , it ’s often anything but . However , charger like this Belkin one make thing simple . If you desire a battery charger that ’s tiny , fast , and will easily melt into the background , this is the one to get . It ’s the new home office battery charger I ca n’t live without , and at $ 45 a daddy , I may break up a few more throughout my apartment just for the hell of it .
