The bestselling Aioneus adapter combines two USB-C and two USB-A connections, with more than 5,000 bought on Amazon in the past month
A four-port fast charger that can power phones, tablets and other everyday gadgets from a single socket has fallen below £10 in an Amazon limited-time deal.
The Aioneus 40W USB charger is currently £9.49, down from its £15.99 RRP. That represents a 41% saving on a plug Amazon ranks as its number one bestseller in the mobile phone mains chargers category.
More than 5,000 have been bought through the retailer in the past month, while the four-port charger has an average score of 4.5 out of five from over 7,100 customer ratings.
Its biggest attraction is the ability to connect as many as four devices at once. There are two USB-C ports alongside two traditional USB-A connections, potentially reducing the collection of adapters competing for space beside the sofa, on a bedside table or in a work bag.
Aioneus says the 40W charging plug supports USB Power Delivery and Quick Charge 3.0. Each USB-C connection can provide up to 20W when used in the right circumstances, making the adapter suitable for fast-charging compatible iPhones and Android handsets.
The manufacturer claims a compatible iPhone can reach 60% charge in around 30 minutes. Actual speeds will depend on the phone, charging cable and how many products are connected, while the available power is shared when several ports are being used simultaneously.
That distinction is worth bearing in mind. The Aioneus multiport adapter offers up to 40W in total rather than supplying 40W through every connection. It is designed for phones and smaller gadgets, so buyers should not expect the output of a high-powered laptop charger.
Compatibility stretches across recent iPhone and Samsung Galaxy models, Google Pixel phones, iPads, Android tablets, smartwatches, Nintendo Switch consoles and USB-powered PS5 accessories. The inclusion of USB-A ports also allows owners to continue using many of their existing charging cables.
No cables are supplied with the £9.49 fast charger, so customers will need to provide their own. A compatible USB-C cable will also be required to get the fastest supported speeds from newer phones.
Its compact design could make the plug particularly useful for holidays, commutes and motorhome trips, where carrying one adapter is easier than finding space for four. It could also be handy in family homes where several phones, headphones and smartwatches need charging overnight.
Built-in safeguards are said to provide protection against excessive current, overheating and overcharging. Aioneus describes the casing as being made from fire-resistant ABS and polycarbonate, and backs the product with an 18-month replacement promise.
Amazon is also advertising an extra 5% saving when four qualifying products are purchased, although the terms and eligible items should be checked before ordering. Anyone interested in the single-plug offer can view the Aioneus charger deal on Amazon.
The £9.49 price is marked as a limited-time deal, meaning it could change or end without notice. Customers should check the latest price and delivery details at checkout.
