Satechi Launches 240W ChargeView Desktop Charger With Six USB-C Ports

by

Satechi today launched the ChargeView 240W Desktop Charger, a successor to the 140W ChargeView released last year. The ChargeView 240W can power multiple devices at one time, splitting 240W across six USB-C ports.

The ChargeView 240W has an LCD display that shows the live wattage of all ports that are in use. The C1 and C2 ports offer up to 140W each, while ports C3 and C4 can deliver up to 100W each. The final two ports offer up to 30W. These are maximum power levels, and actual wattage will vary based on how many ports are used at one time. If all six ports are in use, power would be split 70W/70W/30W/30W/20W/20W.

Satechi is offering the ChargeView in Space Black, and it has a metallic matte finish with a glossy display cover. The Space Black shade is meant to complement Apple devices like the MacBook Pro and Studio Display. There is an included stand that allows the ChargeView to be used in horizontal or vertical orientation on a desktop.

The ChargeView uses GaN technology so it is compact, and it has no fan, so it operates silently. Satechi notes that the device will redistribute power when a new device is plugged in, so there can be a momentary interruption in charging.

The ChargeView 240W can be purchased from the Satechi website or from Amazon for $149.99.

Boooo. This is a big issue for USB-PD power supplies as it means that multiport chargers can't be used to power things like NAS units or Raspberry Pis as connecting another device will cause a power cycle. There is a Sabrent 252 W unit that doesn't do this, but I'm not really aware of any others.

I think most would expect that a device with no battery needing an uninterrupted source of power would be on its own dedicated power source, no?
Not at all. I would never expect any sort of power supply to ever cut power regardless of how many ports it has, except in emergency/overload situations.

This thing is going to cause a lot of people headaches.

You could, but for those who want to power several devices in a small cabinet one power supply is better for efficiency and saving space. A friend of mine had a cabinet full of consumer network equipment and they all had a separate power adapter. Those adapters alone generated a lot of heat, so replaced it with one more efficient power supply. This reduced the heat significantly and in the long run saved him a bit on his energy bill too (generated heat costs money).
Right a power supply, not a charger. This isn’t a UPS. You need the right tool for the right job.

It’s a charger, not a power supply….bug difference between the two.
