Faster wireless iPhone charging
Belkin’s new Qi2 25W certified wireless charger can take an empty iPhone battery to 50% in just 30 minutes, up to five times faster than standard Qi chargers.

And, with two USB-C ports, you can use one to charge a MacBook Pro or MacBook Air and the other for an iPhone, iPad, gaming console or other USB-C devices. It boasts near-zero standby power consumption (<5mW at 230V AC), making it as low impact as it is powerful.
Prices are $49.95 for the 50W version. An extra $10 gets you the 67W option. The product will be available locally in late September in retail, Amazon and Belkin.com/au.
