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.

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.
That would be a problem with your expectations then. These devices aren't meant to permanently power things that don't have batteries and need 100% uptime - it's for charging devices. Almost all of these types of things work like this.

Hell, the thing is called the ChargeView 240W Desktop Charger. It's for charging.

Even the "Sabrent 252 W" the other guy was talking about, it actually does drop power to renegotiate. The reason they think it doesn't is that it has two independent groups of ports, and so if you plug something into group a, and something into group b, there won't be an interruption. But if you plug two things into group a it's going to do the exact same renegotiation.

It would be great if none of them ever dropped power to renegotiate, but well over 90% of them do, and so let's not pretend your expectation is anywhere close to reality (for now at least).

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?
