Relief for disappearing USB Ports.

If you’ve upgraded your MacBook recently you’ve noticed it only has USB-C ports, making it a challenge to charge your iPhone, wireless headphones, battery packs, etc., with your MacBook. Instead of buying dongles or carrying extra chargers, why not add PlugBug Duo to the MacBook charger you already have - so you can charge two USB devices, and your MacBook, simultaneously, with one device.

Charge three devices from just one outlet.

PlugBug Duo snaps onto your MacBook power adapter giving you the ability to charge your MacBook plus two additional USB powered devices, such as your iPhone and AirPods, from one outlet. Imagine how awesome that would be in an airport or a coffee shop where outlets are scarce. No more having to decide which item to charge before you board a plane or on a break at a conference.

PlugBug Duo FAQs

Where will PlugBug Duo work?
PlugBug World includes five international snap-on plugs designed to work in over 150 countries around the world including but not limited to the UK, Hong Kong, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, Continental Europe, North America and Japan. Please note, that there are specific regions in European countries that may not use the traditional EU plug adapter that is included. When traveling abroad we do suggest you check the power adapter requirements prior to arrival.
Does PlugBug Duo work with the MacBook extension cable?
Unfortunately the newest PlugBug Duo will not work with the Apple extension cords that were previously shipped with your MacBook (current MacBooks do not ship with the extension cable). Due to updates in power regulations our power-connecting pin is designed to be the most efficient for wattage distribution, which unfortunately, does not mimic the same design as the original extension cables.
Does each USB port provide 2.1A charging or is this the total power supplies?
PlugBug Duo is a 2.1A (12W) charger, so this is the total power it can provide. If only one device is being charged via USB, use the top port (labeled “2.1”) for the fastest charge of your device. If two devices are being charged simultaneously, the power will be equally split between the usb ports (1 amp / 6 watts each).
