If youre a die-hard Apple Watch fan, there might be times when you feel a bit slighted at how Apple Watch chargers almost feel like afterthoughts. Most simply use the original Apple puck, and the majority simply have it tacked onto a larger all-in-one charging dock for iPhones and AirPods as well. Notable chargers designed specifically for the Apple Watch are almost few and far between, so this rather quirky charging cable comes as a pleasant surprise.Yes, its a charging cable designed to be used by other devices as well, but the presence of a built-in Apple Watch puck makes it clear what it really is for. Yes, theres a block that houses that charging circle for the Apple Watch, serving as an always visible reminder to check your smartwatchs battery level every time you plug something in. Fortunately, that isnt the only trick it knows.Designer: NomadUnless you have a portable and foldable wireless charging dock, chances are you still rely on charging cables to keep your Apple devices topped up on the go. But while thats fine for iPhones and AirPods, it means carrying a separate cable just for the Apple Watch because it can only charge wirelessly anyway. The Nomad Universal Cable for Apple Watch fixes that problem by literally combining those two functions in a single design.The otherwise normal USB-C cable has a block on one end that houses the typical Apple Watch wireless charger, meaning you can charge your Apple Watch on the same cable, whether alone or with an iPhone or iPad. And since this is USB-C were talking about, any combination of charger and device will work, including charging an iPhone via an iPad while also charging the Apple Watch.What about your AirPods, you might ask? Of course, you can charge it normally via the USB-C cable, but you can also place it on top of the Apple Watch charger if either end of the cable is already occupied. It almost offers the same versatility as multi-device MagSafe docks but with a more space-efficient design. Presuming, of course, youre fine without wireless charging for anything but the Apple Watch.The one catch to this design is that youll have to be mindful of the actual power draw when using the Apple Watch charger. Instead of the full 100W capacity, it will use 8W for the Apple Watch and 92W for anything else connected to the cable, which could lead to a bit of a problem with more power-hungry MacBooks. The cable is also specifically designed for charging, not data transfer, and it opted for a slower USB 2.0 spec in exchange for making the cable longer.The post Nomad has the strangest and most useful charging cable for Apple Watch owners first appeared on Yanko Design.
