Rekavin 40W USB Type-C Plug UK Multiport Fast Charger (Dual USB-C + Dual USB-A)
Product description
If you’re fed up of juggling multiple chargers, a single multiport plug is usually the smarter move. This Rekavin USB Type-C Plug UK is a 40W fast charger with Power Delivery and Quick Charge 3.0, designed to charge several Apple devices from one wall outlet.
On paper, it ticks a lot of the boxes people care about day to day: multi-device convenience, faster charging than the old 5W brick, and built-in protection for safer charging. That said, the “fast” part depends quite a bit on what you’re charging and which port you’re using.
The essentials
This is a UK plug USB charger with four ports in total: dual USB-C and dual USB-A. With a maximum total output of 40W, it’s aimed at households (or travel bags) where you want to top up an iPhone, an iPad, and maybe a watch at the same time without bringing a small pile of adapters.
When charging iPhone series devices, the description states it can deliver full 20W power, which is positioned as up to around three times faster than a 5W charger. If you’re moving from older chargers, that jump is the main reason you’d consider this.
Key features that matter in real life
The straightforward value here is the multiport layout. Instead of choosing between USB-C-only convenience and legacy USB-A cables, you get both in one plug head.
You also get two charging standards mentioned in the listing: Power Delivery and Quick Charge 3.0. In practice, those standards are what help the charger recognise compatible devices and deliver higher wattage where supported.
And there’s protection circuitry for over-voltage, over-current, and over-heating. It’s not a guarantee that anything will be perfect in every situation, but it’s reassuring that the charger is designed with safeguards rather than relying purely on luck.
What stands out (and what’s less convincing)
The biggest standout is convenience: four ports means you can spread charging across devices without swapping cables or hunting for spare sockets. It’s particularly handy at night when everyone’s devices need a top-up.
Power Delivery and Quick Charge 3.0 are the other key points, because they’re the difference between “it charges” and “it charges noticeably faster” — at least for supported devices.
Where you should be a bit cautious: the total power is capped at 40W across all ports. If you charge multiple devices at once, the wattage available to each one may reduce depending on how the charger allocates output.
Also, while the listing names a wide range of Apple models, you still need the right charging cables and support from the device side for fast charging to kick in.
Who it’s for
This charger suits you if you want one UK wall plug for a mixed Apple setup — for example, an iPhone plus an iPad, with extra USB-C and USB-A availability for other accessories or family members.
It’s also a practical “one-and-done” choice for travel or shared spaces. Instead of packing a separate charger for each device interface, you can keep fewer bricks and rely on the multiport head.
It may not be the best match if you only ever charge one device at a time and you’re specifically chasing the highest possible speeds for a single phone on its own — in that scenario, a dedicated single-device fast charger can be simpler to reason about.
Where it shines: everyday use example
Imagine you’re getting ready for the day and you’ve got your iPhone on one USB-C cable, an iPad on the other USB-C, and a second device (or a family phone with a USB-A lead) on USB-A. With this plug, you can connect them all at once and let the charger handle the output distribution up to the stated 40W total.
If you’re only powering an iPhone, the listing claims up to 20W for iPhone series charging — that’s the scenario where the “faster than 5W” message is most relevant.
¿Merece la pena?
If your goal is fewer chargers and more simultaneous convenience, this 40W multiport Type-C Plug UK makes sense. The combination of dual USB-C + dual USB-A is genuinely useful, and the protection features are the kind of baseline you’d want from a plug you’ll use every day.
However, if you expect consistently maximum fast-charging speeds on every device at the same time, you may find it a bit disappointing. Because the total output is shared across four ports, simultaneous charging is more about convenience than guaranteed maximum wattage per device.
Quick check before you buy
- Make sure you have compatible charging cables for USB-C and USB-A devices.
- Consider whether you’ll mostly charge one device, or multiple at once (that affects how meaningful the 40W total feels).
- If you’re buying specifically for fast charging, it helps to confirm your device supports the relevant fast-charging behaviour described for iPhone series charging.
Pros
- Four ports (dual USB-C + dual USB-A) for charging multiple devices together

FAQ
Will it fast charge iPhones?
The listing states it provides full 20W power when charging iPhone series devices, positioned as up to around three times faster than a 5W charger. Fast charging still depends on device and cable support.
Can I charge 4 devices at once?
Yes, the charger includes 4 ports and is described as enabling simultaneous fast charging for up to 4 devices, with a maximum total power of 40W.
What if I use multiple ports at the same time?
Keep in mind that the output is capped at 40W total. If several devices are connected, power may be shared rather than each device receiving full wattage.
Is it safe to leave connected while charging overnight?
The charger includes intelligent protection circuitry for over-voltage, over-current, and over-heating. Still, like any charger, it’s sensible to use it as intended and avoid cramped, overheated environments.
