Vinpok’s Duo 2 allows you to charge an iPhone while using your headphones

I understand Apple’s implementation of a single Lightning port design on the iPhone. However, if you want to charge the smartphone and listen to music with wired headphones at the same time, you’ll have to buy a separate, bulky splitter. 

Well, at least you HAD to. No more, thanks to the upcoming Vinpok Duo 2 Cable, which allows you to charge the device while listening to your tunes. Vinpok adds a Lightning port to a charging cable. It supports Apple’s Lightning-to-3.5mm Headphone Jack Adapter and provides 48 kHz, 24-bit audio output

I’m a big fan of Apple’s AirPods, so I rarely use wired headphones. But if you do, the Duo 2 — which is is currently undergoing crowdfunding on Indiegogo — will come in handy.
