The Twelve South PlugBug wall charger includes a feature that every travel accessory should have: Apple Find My support. So not only can it power two devices at up to 50W, you can be sure you won’t accidentally leave it in your hotel room.
To make the accessory even more enticing, a deal knocks 30% off the usual cost, dropping it below $50.

There are so many USB-C wall chargers that it’s hard for one to stand out. But the Twelve South PlugBug has been in my travel bag for almost a year. That’s because I can be sure I won’t forget it in a hotel room.
The PlugBug comes with Apple’s Find My tech built in. This was originally intended to help find lost keys, but it’ll also alert you if you get too far away from a Find My-compatible device. So if I’m checking out in the hotel lobby, I’ll get a reminder on my iPhone that the PlugBug is still back behind the nightstand up in the room. Or the iPhone can show me on a map where the accessory is.
But none of that would matter if the wall charger couldn’t keep my gear powered up. But it does that job well. A pair of USB-C ports put out a max of 50W, which is enough for a MacBook and an iPhone. I wrote a review with many more details and tests.
