An 8-port 200W GaN III charging station designed for multi-device desktop setups. Charges up to 8 devices simultaneously across a mix of USB-C and USB-A ports, with a dedicated 65W USB-C port fast enough for laptops (MacBook Pro, DELL) and a separate iPhone/Android fast-charging port. No wireless charging or MagSafe—this is a purely wired hub optimized for wall-powered desktop use. GaN III technology keeps heat and brick size minimal compared to older chargers. Best suited for desk workers, content creators, or anyone juggling laptop + multiple phones + tablets + accessories. Not a travel charger due to the fixed wall brick; designed for stationary charging stations.
