Zens Bows Multi-Device Apple Chargers for iPhone, AirPods, Watch at IFA

Zens will bow at IFA this week the first wireless charging stands with a lightning connector, said the company Wednesday. Filling in for Apple’s promise of the ill-fated, tri-charging AirCharge wireless charging pad, the Zens ZEDC07 ($139) simultaneously charges an iPhone, Apple Watch and AirPods. Rather than charging from a pad, the ZEDC07, with a total 20-watt output, has a lean-back Qi charger for the phone and charges an Apple Watch from a customized charging transmitter mounted to a horizontal aluminum bar; the AirPods connect to the base of the unit via lightning. The watch module and lightning connector are Apple MFi-certified, it said. A built-in USB port enables charging for a fourth device. Zens also is launching the ZESC13 wireless charger ($59), with 10-watt output for a single Qi device, and a 2.4-Amp USB port that allows wired iPad fast-charging. The 20-watt ZEDC06 ($99) wirelessly charges two devices simultaneously; a built-in USB port charges a third device, said the company.
