This travel charger combines retro charm with fast charging support

The travel charger is supposed to be a utilitarian device where function trumps form. It turns out, one company didn't get the memo. Sharge has become known for its chargers and power banks that combine aesthetics and functionality and this retro charger is no different. Is the Sharge Retro 67W GaN Charger worth it? Shaped like a classic Macintosh computer, its screen displays real-time charging speeds using a large, pixelated font. When the 67W GaN charger is plugged into a socket but not charging any devices, it displays a digital rain pattern that's reminiscent of the Matrix. The charger supports a maximum output of 67W and has three USB-C ports, each of which is capable of charging at 67W max. Plug in two devices and it charges at a maximum of 45W and 20W. Three-port charging supports 45W on 1 port and 15W on the other 2 ports. Sharge says the device includes safety protection and the Travel Set includes UK, EU and AU adapters. Cons? This doesn't include a USB-A port for legacy devices. Its prongs are located on the bottom, so the charging display may be hard to view if it's plugged into a wall socket Pros: Retro design, displays charging speed, 67W charging, UK, EU and AU adapters Shop here Gallium nitride (GaN) conducts electricity more efficiently and generates less heat than older silicon-based chargers, allowing them to charge devices faster. GaN chargers also require fewer components than silicon chargers, so they can be more compact while handling greater loads. If you're looking for more powerful GaN travel chargers or prefer plain-Jane devices, here are some other travel chargers to consider. Like the Sharge Retro 67W Charger, these can also be used in Singapore, making them versatile choices. This 65W multiport USB-C has two USB-C ports and one USB-A port for legacy devices. It includes interchangeable UK, EU and US plugs. Shop here A 65W charger with two USB-C ports, one USB-A port and one universal socket for devices that don't support USB power delivery. It includes sliding UK, EU, AU and US plugs. 8A surge protection Shop here This slimline 65W charger is designed to fit into tight spaces. Featuring one USB-C port and one USB-A port, it supports fast charging. It has US, EU and UK plugs. Shop here For travellers with more demanding charging requirements, this 140W charger features two USB-C ports and one USB-A port. It supports fast charging, has US, EU and UK plugs, although Type A for Australia and New Zealand is absent. IntelliSense technology detects and distributes the correct charging current to connected devices Over-heat, over-voltage, over-current and short-circuit protection Shop here WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN A GaN TRAVEL CHARGER Gallium nitride (GaN) is a semiconductor that conducts electricity more efficiently and generates less heat than silicon-based chargers. This allows them to charge multiple devices faster and have more compact designs. Sockets: Check that your travel charger includes US, EU, AU and UK sockets so you're covered wherever you travel in the world. Power output: If you want to fast-charge your laptop, or charge your phone and laptop simultaneously, consider a charger that supports at least 65W charging. Size, weight and cost: The current GaN charger sweet spot lies with 65W and 100W devices. More powerful chargers will be bigger, heavier and in some case, much more expensive. If you travel with a lot of devices that need to be charged rapidly, this could still be a viable option for you. Safety: Look for built-in features like over-voltage, over-current and short-circuit protection that help protect your devices.

Retailers Can Enhance Brand Experience With All-Plastic Shopping Carts, Complete Customization With New Launch From The Peggs Company

The Matrix Series shopping carts' improved design and functionality will set the standard for all-plastic carts in the U.S. RIVERSIDE, Calif., August 05, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Peggs Company, designers and manufacturers of shopping cart, retail, and grocery solutions for more than 60 years, is launching the Matrix Series of premium all-plastic shopping carts and hand baskets that will be made in the USA and can be customized with retailer brand elements. The first and only shopping cart line of its kind in the U.S., Matrix can enhance the brand experience for shoppers while increasing durability and lifespan. The Matrix Series, which has patents pending, includes a standard shopping cart, a two-tier convenience cart, and a hand basket. In addition to stock plastic colors and a standard basket pattern, the Matrix Series offers a unique opportunity to customize shopping carts beyond the typically available black and gray. Exclusive to the Matrix Series, retailers can customize the basket pattern with their logo or brand-identifying elements, tailor the side panels and handle, and select any Pantone color for each component of the cart, resulting in contemporary shopping carts that are unique extensions of the retailer's brand. "With the rise of online shopping, it's never been more important for retailers to uphold a memorable, pleasurable in-store shopping experience," said Brett Nelson, CEO. "The Matrix Series of premium carts and baskets will become iconic—a key differentiator for retailers—and make for unique shopping experiences that customers will look forward to." Peggs leveraged its decades of shopping cart manufacturing and maintenance in collaboration with the leading authority on all-plastic carts to bring this to fruition. Together with Supercart, the world leaders in all-plastic cart design, and a consulting firm that analyzed global design trends, Peggs developed the Matrix Series as a superior all-plastic cart that provides solutions to consistent issues and failures facing other all-plastic models. Key benefits include: Made of a custom-engineered polymer that is longer-lasting and will remain colorfast. Improved strength of the gate assembly and an ergonomic handle. Higher-end P&H SuperWheels improve rolling and abrasion resistance with a longer lifespan. Addition of rolling caster lifts simplifies nesting and de-nesting, improving accessibility for older adults and people with disabilities, and reducing wear on wheels, which leads to lower maintenance and labor costs. Overall improvements allow for easier repairs and more affordable replacement parts, lowering the total cost of ownership. Carts and baskets are not only recyclable, but are also backed by Peggs' commitment to assist retailers with an end-to-end service, ensuring all components are sustainably managed. Matrix carts also bring the standard added value of all-plastic carts over metal. They convey quality and a more positive brand perception, are quieter and easier to push, more durable with a longer lifespan, lighter, less likely to bend and wobble, rust-resistant, and 100% recyclable. "Everyone can think of a time they went to the store and got the rusty, noisy cart or a squeaky wheel," Nelson said. "It's a miserable experience that pushes people out of the store. Retailers need shoppers to dwell as long as possible to increase the dollar sales per transaction. With Matrix shopping carts, retailers won't experience irritating sounds or wobbly wheels that negatively impact the customer experience and their bottom line." Matrix orders are being accepted now, with fulfillment expected by early September.
