SWISSTEN Swissten Edge GaN Travel Charger – USB-C PD 45W + USB-A QC 18W, GaN

The SWISSTEN EDGE GaN travel charger combines compact size with high charging performance. It features GaN technology for improved efficiency and lower heat, a USB-C Power Delivery port up to 45W suitable for smartphones, tablets and many USB-C laptops, plus a USB-A Quick Charge port up to 18W for accessories. Its small footprint and dual-port design make it convenient for daily use at home, in the office or on the go.

Advantages

GaN components enable a smaller charger body with better energy efficiency and reduced heat generation compared to conventional silicon chargers. The USB-C PD port provides up to 45W output for faster charging of compatible laptops and mobile devices, while the USB-A QC port adds an 18W fast-charge option for earbuds, power banks and other accessories. Two ports allow simultaneous charging of two devices without needing multiple adapters.

Suitable for

• Charging smartphones and tablets quickly using USB-C PD or USB-A QC
• Powering USB-C laptops that accept up to 45W input
• Charging accessories such as earbuds, power banks and wearables via USB-A
• Travel and daily commuting due to compact dimensions and light weight

When it may not be suitable

The charger delivers a maximum of 45W from the USB-C port; high-power laptops that require greater than 45W for full-speed charging may charge more slowly or not reach maximum performance. Also, when both ports are used simultaneously the combined output is limited and individual port maximums are reduced, so charging speeds can be lower than when a single port is used.

Key specifications

• Dimensions: 42 x 41 x 29 mm (without EU plug)
• Weight: 58 g
• Input: 200–240 V AC, 1.5 A, 50/60 Hz
• USB-C PD output: 5V/3A, 9V/3A, 12V/3A, 15V/3A, 20V/2.25A — up to 45W
• USB-A QC output: 5V/3A, 9V/2A, 12V/1.5A — up to 18W

• Protections: over-current, over-temperature, short-circuit

How to use

Plug the charger into a compatible mains outlet and connect devices using appropriate USB-C or USB-A cables. For the fastest charging of USB-C devices, use the USB-C PD port; use the USB-A port for Quick Charge-compatible accessories. If charging two devices simultaneously, expect reduced per-port power compared with single-port use. Always use cables rated for the device and power level.

What to consider before purchase

• Check your laptop or device USB-C charging requirement — devices needing more than 45W may charge slower
• Verify accessory compatibility with USB-A Quick Charge profiles if you expect maximum QC speeds
• Consider required plug type/adapters for use outside regions with EU-style mains outlets

Usage recommendations

For optimal results, use a high-quality USB-C cable rated for PD when charging laptops or higher-power devices, and connect only one high-power device at a time to achieve the maximum available charging rate.
