Ugreen has taken the wraps off its latest innovation in the world of charging technology – the Nexode Desktop Charger 500W. This powerful device is capable of delivering up to 500W of power, with a single USB-C port capable of outputting an impressive 240W. This means users can charge up to five laptops simultaneously, eliminating the need for a cluttered power strip and multiple adapters.
The Nexode Desktop Charger 500W features five USB-C ports and a single USB-A port, making it an ideal solution for individuals with multiple power-hungry devices such as laptops, handheld gaming devices, or even power tools and e-bikes. The charger supports both USB-PD 3.1 and Qualcomm's Quick Charge 3.0 fast-charging protocols, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of devices.
One of the standout features of the Nexode Desktop Charger 500W is its ability to distribute power across its six USB ports. The top port can deliver up to 240W of power, while the other five ports share 260W of power. This means users can charge a gaming laptop at 240W, plus two more laptops at 100W and one at 60W, or one laptop at 240W and four laptops at 60W, with another device charging at 20W from the USB-A port. While this level of customization may require some trial and error, the payoff is a highly efficient and convenient charging experience.
Despite its impressive capabilities, the Nexode Desktop Charger 500W is a relatively compact device, designed to sit on a desk, in a workshop, or on a kitchen counter. Its rugged design and GaN charger technology make it a reliable choice for heavy-duty charging needs.
While pricing for the Nexode Desktop Charger 500W has not been finalized, Ugreen has announced that it will be available in March 2025. With its unparalleled power output and versatility, this charger is poised to become a game-changer for individuals and businesses alike, simplifying the process of charging multiple devices at once.
As the demand for high-power charging solutions continues to grow, Ugreen's Nexode Desktop Charger 500W is well-positioned to meet the needs of an increasingly connected world. With its ability to charge up to five laptops simultaneously, this device has the potential to revolutionize the way we approach charging our devices, making it an exciting development in the world of tech.
