Chargeasap has announced that the Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign for its latest high-wattage Zeus multi-port power brick has ended. However, those still looking to back it are still in luck, as it is now listed on Indiegogo. The OEM claims that it can charge three MacBooks at once thanks to its cutting-edge gallium nitride (GaN) technology.
The Chargeasap Zeus is around the size of a pack of mints weighing 320 grams (g), or, "up to 45% lighter than industry leaders", yet is rated to pack "all your charging needs" into that space, even if those needs extend to a 16-inch MacBook Pro and 2 of its 13-inch siblings at once.
The OEM touts its new power brick as a "world first", rated to deliver up to 270W to up to 4 devices at once, thanks to its GaNFast NV6127 Power ICs from Navitas. It is also Chargeasap's first high-speed power brick with its own little OLED status display.
The Zeus launched via Kickstarter; however, this campaign is now to be found on Indiegogo, offered at US$90, or 41% off its the eventual RRP of US$219 envisioned for it by Chargeasap. Backer units are currently projected to ship in May 2023, and is slated to do so with a full set of travel adapters.

I became a professional writer and editor shortly after graduation. My degrees are in biomedical sciences; however, they led to some experience in the biotech area, which convinced me of its potential to revolutionize our health, environment and lives in general. This developed into an all-consuming interest in more aspects of tech over time: I can never write enough on the latest electronics, gadgets and innovations. My other interests include imaging, astronomy, and streaming all the things. Oh, and coffee.
