Travel gadgets come and go. Some stand the test of time and others, not so much. Since I am perpetually packing and unpacking my electronics travel bag, anything that reduces the amount of tangled cords is a blessing. When I discovered the iLive 3-in-1 Wireless Charger, I knew it would be a favorite travel goodie. This charging station handles multiple Apple devices simultaneously while using only a single outlet.
My Favorite Three-In-One Charging Stand
I love testing out new travel gadgets. Technology updates typically make traveling easier and more streamlined.
To become one of my favorite travel gadgets, it needs to pass three important tests:
- Multi-purpose use
- Lightweight
- Reliability
The iLive 3-in-1 Wireless Charging Stand measures up to these three requirement standards and more.
Pro Tip: The iLive 3-in-1 Wireless Charging Stand does need to be plugged into an electrical outlet power source with its cable and AC Adapter — it charges your devices wirelessly.
Multi-Purpose
The wireless station charges three devices simultaneously: Apple Watch, AirPods, and iPhone (three other required travel items).
Not only does it charge all three at the same time, I only need one cord. The charging station eliminates the need for my Apple Watch charger, which I am always afraid of leaving behind, dangling from an outlet in the bathroom. With the iLive, I know exactly where my AirPods are when they are not in my ears — I certainly don’t want to lose those wireless earbuds. Finally, it charges my iPhone quickly so I am ready to get back out exploring in a jiffy.
Lightweight
The iLive wireless charging station is slim, super lightweight, and folds up into the size of my phone. Charging station dimensions are 7.36 x 2.76 x 5.6 inches. Its compact design allows the iLive charging station to fit easily in my technology travel bag.
Reliability
My phone stays put on the iLive wireless charging pad. An added bonus, it is in an upright position so I can quickly glance at my notifications.
My Apple Watch doesn’t slide off the charging spot — no disconnected and drained battery here.
My AirPods sit on the charging pad and the battery fills up quickly.
I simply unfold the iLive 3-in-1 and plug it into a nightstand outlet to get all three of my devices charged quickly and simultaneously.
Other Benefits
Trading in three cable connectors for one is a huge benefit. Many times, hotel rooms only have one or two outlets on the nightstand. I dislike having to jockey for plugs; my devices never fully charge. One outlet works as three — genius. Additionally, I don’t have to juggle all the charging cables that are easily forgotten, left disconnected, and are dangling from a hidden outlet.
Status Indicator Lights
I know where the charging status of my devices’ batteries are by simply glancing at the light bar. When charging, the bar is a flashing blue; when it is complete, a solid green.
Charge All Your Apple Devices
Anything that makes travel easier and more streamlined is a plus. I rely on my Apple devices when I’m on the road. I know all of my fellow Apple users will agree, you rely on these products and you want them charged and functioning. Juggling multiple charging cables can be annoying and the iLive charging pad makes packing and repacking easier.
The Best Wireless Charger For Your Apple Devices
There are lots of multi-use chargers on the market and I have tried several. The iLive 3-in-1 wireless charger is the best charging brick I have used. It has made the last two dozen on-the-road adventures in my travel bag and will remain an integral piece of my technology tool kit.
Whether you are staying in urban luxury like The Whitney Hotel or a traveling camper van, having a 3-in-1 wireless charger is a wonderful addition to your electronics bag.
