Explore Mighty Ape’s 3-in-1 Magnetic Chargers for Holiday Travel

As the holiday season approaches, many individuals are searching for innovative tech solutions to enhance their travel experiences. Among these, the Mighty Ape 3-in-1 magnetic chargers have emerged as a popular choice, offering a blend of portability and functionality. These chargers provide a versatile way to keep devices powered, especially for users within the Apple ecosystem and beyond.

Introducing the Charging Options

The Mighty Ape lineup includes several 3-in-1 magnetic travel chargers, each designed to meet varying user needs. The first highlighted option is the **Kogan 3-in-1 Qi2 Foldable Wireless Charging Stand**. Notably different in shape, this charger resembles a camera lens and weighs **340 grams**. While it may be less suited for a handbag due to its weight, its cylindrical design fits well in a drink bottle pouch, making it easy to carry.

This charger features a top plate that tilts forward to reveal a second cradle for earbuds or AirPods, while a separate charging pad for the Apple Watch slides out from the side. With **15W** charging for phones, **5W** for earbuds, and **2.5W** for the Apple Watch, it promises efficient power delivery. Users appreciate the foldable design, which also accommodates the Nightstand clock feature on compatible devices.

Upon activation, the charger emits a bright white ring light, initially causing concern about its brightness during nighttime use. Fortunately, this light functions as a nightlight and can be adjusted or turned off completely, enhancing its usability in dim environments.

A Closer Look at Other Options

Next in line is the **Mighty Ape Foldable Magnetic 3-in-1 Wireless Charger**. Although it has a bulkier appearance, this model is lightweight and folds flat, which makes it convenient for travel. Its design includes a phone charging panel that hinges upward, revealing an earbud charging pad, while the Apple Watch charging stand unfolds from behind.

This charger also features a ring “Ambient” light, with a button that cycles through brightness levels. However, the presence of a status LED, which cannot be turned off, could be a distraction for light-sensitive users. This charger stands out as the most powerful among the three, delivering **15W** to phones and **5W** to earbuds, while providing **5W** to Apple Watches, which is particularly beneficial for users with larger battery devices.

The final option is the **Kogan 3-in-1 Aluminium MagSafe Compatible Wireless Charging Stand**, which is notably compact, folding down to the size of a credit card and measuring only **22mm** in thickness. Its stylish design features brushed aluminum and grey charging pads, appealing to those seeking aesthetic value in their tech accessories.

This model is unique in that it can charge both Apple and Samsung Galaxy Watches, providing versatility for users who switch between ecosystems. The charging pads are rubber-coated to prevent scratches, and the stand’s stiff hinges ensure stability at various angles. While it includes several safety features such as Overcharge Protection, users have noted that it tends to become warm during operation.

Despite these drawbacks, it still offers reasonable charging times, increasing a Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra’s battery from **51%** to **61%** in just fifteen minutes.

All three Mighty Ape chargers come with a USB power cable, but notably lack a wall charger, which could impact maximum charging speeds if not paired with an appropriate power brick. Priced between **NZ$50** and **NZ$62**, these chargers represent a practical gift option for the holiday season, either for friends and family or as a personal treat for those planning to travel.
