This Charger Retracts More Than Your Motivation
Sharge just turned your dull power bank into the Swiss Army knife of chargers, featuring a 'retractable USB-C cable extending over 27 inches' and a 10,000mAh battery that sadly drops output from 65W to a meager 30W—meaning it’s perfect for phones, not Dragonslayer laptops. For $44.99 (less than that throwaway latte habit), you get a device that boasts 'over 30,000 cycles of being retracted and extended'—likely outlasting your battery’s will to live. Plus, it flexes a pixelated LED battery display inspired by Dieter Rams' Braun Audio 300, because why just charge when you can stare at retro chic?

Sharge made a power bank that retracts its cable 30,000 times but can’t power your Netflix binge laptop. It’s like the floppy disk of chargers: nostalgic, oddly specific, and mostly useless in 2025.
Imagine bragging about a charger that outlives your battery but powers your devices slower than your morning coffee kicks in. Peak 21st century innovation right there.
This charger’s cable retracts more times than I’ve hit snooze, yet somehow it charges devices about as well as a potato. Technology wins, humanity cries.
