If you own multiple devices like an iPhone, AirPods and an Apple Watch, you know how charging all of these things can get a little crowded, as you need three different cables to top everything off. But there are some all-in-one solutions, like this Lamicall 3-in-1 Charging Station for Apple devices. Right now, you can grab this nifty charging station for just $20, which is $20 (50%) off the regular $40 price if you're a Prime member.
Instead of having three cables to charge up your iPhone, AirPods and Apple Watch, this portable travel charger from Lamicall can charge all three at once. Best of all, it's streamlined into one clean charger that's also foldable, so you can get the perfect viewing angle on your iPhone while it charges.

This three-in-one charging station has a unique cooling system so that it won't overheat when charging multiple devices simultaneously. Lamicall included a temperature control chip in the charger itself, as well as multiple heat dissipation holes and a heat-dissipating metal plate at the base. With all of this combined, it can effectively reduce the temperature by 30% compared with other charging stations. Lamicall didn't compromise on the quality either, the charger has stable and rapid wireless charging, so your devices will get topped off as fast as possible.

For older iPhones, the charger can be laid flat and charge wirelessly, but if you have a MagSafe-compatible iPhone, then you can fold out the adjustable arm hidden underneath and stick your phone to the magnetic ring. This makes the charging station convenient to use for hands-free viewing of videos, video calls and more.
Lamicall's charging station also has a non-slip pad behind the MagSafe stand so that when you charge up your AirPods or other wireless accessories, the charging stand won't move around. For the Apple Watch charger, it folds up into position when needed and stays flat and out of the way if you're not rocking one. It's worth noting that while folded out, the area under the Apple Watch charger lights up, but it shuts off after a few minutes so that it won't disturb your night's rest.
There are also light indicators on the front of the charging station to show you which devices are charging, which is a nice touch. Lamicall also includes a 20-watt charging adapter and 5-foot USB-C charging cable, so you don't need to supply your own.
Why this deal matters
No one likes to have extra chargers to worry about, so an all-in-one solution just simplifies the experience. And this portable charging station is also very compact, so you don't need a lot of space to use it. At just $20, it's much cheaper than buying separate chargers for your iPhone, AirPods and Apple Watch, and this is a great option for travel.

‘Things are getting tougher': I'm struggling with $145,000 in debt. Should I refinance my 3.5% mortgage?

I'm in my upper 40s and have $300,000 in my 401(k). I also have 23 years on my mortgage — $254,000 with a 3.25% interest rate — and $400,000 in equity. Things are getting tougher each month with expenses, and I find myself in $145,000 debt between low-rate credit cards (15%) and a 8% HELOC. Medicare will test using AI to help decide whether patients get coverage — which could delay or deny care, critics warn 'I'm tired of corporate America': My wife and I have $1.65 million. I'm 61. Can I retire already? 'She lives alone': My mother-in-law, 86, gets $1,300 in Social Security. Is that enough to live on? 'Stagflation is coming to the U.S.,' says this economist. Here's what it means for the dollar, bonds and stocks. Shop Top Mortgage Rates Personalized rates in minutes A quicker path to financial freedom Your Path to Homeownership If you were in my shoes, would you rather refinance at a 6.7% mortgage rate and pay off the credit-card debt and home-equity loan, get a HELOC or downsize your home? Forties Don't miss: 'He claims to be a nihilist': I told my friend to sell his Tesla shares. He did not appreciate my advice. Was I wrong? You have a few poisoned chalices to choose from. Given that you are paying 3.5% on a $254,000 mortgage, I assume your monthly payment is around $1,100 a month. Only two options you outline allow you to keep your current home. An ideal third option would be getting rid of your credit-card debt at all costs by slashing expenses. However, if your goal is to get rid of this $145,000 debt entirely and get back into the black, downsizing might be the lesser of three evils; the other two being refinancing your mortgage or taking out an 8% HELOC to cover that credit-card debt. Downsizing would be humbling, but that's not always a bad thing, especially if you preserve your 401(k). It also allows you to take a long, hard look at your finances and figure out why you got into $145,000 debt, not to punish yourself, but in order to prevent it from happening again. By downsizing, you would be taking on a higher mortgage rate — around 6.7% — but hopefully for a much smaller amount. You would not increase your monthly expenses, allowing yourself to save and invest money and be free of your unsecured debt. Selling your house and releasing that $400,000 in equity, paying off the $145,000 in combined debt, and buying a smaller house for $500,000 at a 30-year rate of 6.7% interest with the remainder of your cash, would leave you with a $1,500 monthly payment. The downsides are obvious: You have the potential emotional gut punch of trading down, you don't have such a valuable asset and you pay more interest over the lifetime of the loan. The upside: Your life becomes more manageable on a month-to-month basis. And refinancing? Brace yourself for a numbers salad. These are blunt back-of-the-napkin calculations, excluding home insurance and other costs, to show you the difference in your monthly payments under each scenario, and give you an idea of how much interest you would pay with each one. a) Refinancing your existing mortgage to add that $145,000 in debt — plus $5,000 in attorney fees, etc. — would give you a $2,600 monthly payment at a 30-year mortgage rate of 6.7%. That does not seem like a viable solution for you. b) Converting your debts to a 20-year HELOC at 8%, would give you a $1,300 monthly payment in addition to your existing mortgage payment. So your monthly payment would, in total, jump to $2,400. Is that lower than what you are paying now? Again, it does not seem viable. Frankly, none of these rough refinancing estimates sound like attractive solutions for you, but they give you an idea of your monthly payments, your interest payments and keeping your current home versus giving it up for a smaller house. Some context on the kind of interest you'd pay with your three options: 1) With the downsizing option, you pay roughly $321,600 in interest over 30 years but could aim to pay off the mortgage early. 2) By refinancing at 6.7%, you pay $526,560 in interest over 30 years. 3) With a $145,000 home-equity line of credit, or HELOC, you would pay $146,360 on your loan in interest over 20 years. Adding the roughly $144,000 interest you're paying on your existing 30-year mortgage at 3.5%, you'd be paying total interest of $290,360. If you refinanced your mortgage debt or took out a HELOC, would either of those options reduce your current monthly debt payments enough to make it worth your while? If not, are you willing to downsize to a smaller home to pay the debt and have lower monthly costs? If you are unsure, cut your expenses and live like a monk to pay your debt. Don't miss: 'It might be another Apple or Microsoft': My wife invested $100K in one stock and it exploded 1,500%. Do we sell? My therapist said he was in-network. He's not. Am I obliged to pay out-of-network rates for all prior sessions? 'I have never been asked for money before': My friend wants to borrow $1,600 to pay her rent. Do I say yes? 'I feel shaken': A man offered $50 to powerwash my patio. He would not take 'no' for an answer. My late husband's employer is forcing me to take 10% 401(k) distributions. Help! Millions of student-loan borrowers have no idea how much they're supposed to pay 'I feel shaken': A man offered to powerwash my patio for $50. He would not take no for an answer.

Bessent says new Fed chair should be someone who can examine organization, Nikkei reports

TOKYO (Reuters) -U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the new Federal Reserve chair should be someone "who can examine the whole organization" as the Fed's mission has included so many things outside of monetary policy and has put its independence at risk, Japan's Nikkei newspaper reported. "It's someone who has to have the confidence of the markets, the ability to analyze complex economic data," Bessent told the Nikkei in an interview, when asked about the qualities the new Fed chair should possess. "And it's also someone who wants to be, I think, very attuned to forward thinking, as opposed to relying on historical data," Bessent was quoted as saying in the interview, which was conducted in Washington on August 7 and published on Monday. A source has told Reuters that Bessent is leading a search for a successor to Fed Chair Jerome Powell, with an expanded list that includes a longtime economic consultant and a past regional Fed president.
