Try as I might, I have a hard time not taking my laptop with me when I travel. This usually means I have a smartphone, an e-reader, and a laptop, plus accessories like power banks, earbuds, and headphones. All of these things need to be charged, and while I might be overpacked when it comes to tech, I only carry one wall charger with me. It’s the Anker PowerPort III 3-Port 65W Wall Charger, and best of all, it’s on sale for just $25.

Admittedly, at the original price of $30, a roughly $4 markdown isn’t a major discount. But this already affordable solution to your on-the-go charging needs is getting even more affordable, which is nothing to complain about in a time of tariffs.
The wall charger has foldable prongs for easy storage and three ports, including two USB-C and one USB-A port. The USB-C charger charges at 65W, so it can power up the 13-inch MacBook Pro or MacBook Air models, although larger or more powerful laptops require a more powerful adapter.
In my experience, it can power multiple devices at once without overheating, although you’ll need an appropriately-rated cable. Because of Apple’s move to USB-C for the iPhone, it’s possible to carry just one cable, too.
If 65W isn’t enough for more power-hungry laptops, Anker has other options that are just as compact but more powerful, some of which are on sale.
