Satechi Multi-Port USB Charging Station saves desktop space as you juice up your various Apple devices

If you’re like me, you probably have several devices charging at any given time. This requires multiple USB ports and/or chargers, which results in a bit of desktop clutter. Satechi’s $29.99 Multi-Port USB Charging Station helps alleviate this problem. 

With 60W of power and integrated smart auto-detect technology, it sports four Type-A ports and two Type-C ports, so you can safely charge several gadgets simultaneously. And, yes, I said Type-C, which means the Multi-Port USB Charging Station works with Apple’s 12-inch MacBook, which has a solo USB-C port. (And I suspect upcoming MacBook Pros will also have USB-C connectivity.)

The Satechi solution has a compact design (4.5 x 2.75 x 1.13 inches), so it doesn’t take up too much desktop or countertop space. It’s also small enough that you can toss it in a backpack when you’re traveling. Conveniently, the Multi-Port USB Charging Station has an on/off switch when you need to power it down.

Unless you simply have one or two gadgets that must be charged, this is a sweet little product. In addition to saving space, it makes sure you don’t “lost” devices due to chargers being scattered all over your office or home.
