Anker Nano II series GaN chargers launch with up to 65W charging output
Anker launches its second generation of compact GaN chargers. The Nano II series builds on the company’s previous gallium nitride power stones, which deliver high performance in small packages.
Although the original Anker GaN line was already pretty compact, the Nano II GaN chargers are shrinking even further. The 45 W and 60 W versions have folding prongs and weigh 85 grams and 150 grams respectively. While the 30 W option has fixed prongs, it is almost 60% smaller than an equivalent MacBook USB-C, according to Anker Charger. It also weighs just 39.6 grams.
The Nano II series uses Anker’s GaN II technology or the latest version of their gallium nitride based components. The semiconductor, which is billed as the successor to silicon, offers higher temperature limits and higher load capacity in a smaller space. In this way, businesses can reduce the size of chargers without reducing their potential performance.
The chargers are also equipped with USB-C sockets, support USB Power Delivery, Qualcomm’s Quick Charge 3.0 and Samsung’s Super Fast Charging. Anker’s own PowerIQ 3.0 power management technology is also available.
