Plus, the size / volume / weight / price will increase in line with the chargers’ output...
A similarly higher (split) output is coming sooner with the Omega 200W that pseudoswede mentioned earlier:
Outfitting your travel kit for USB-C.
(Though, no idea / comment on expected reliability...)
Oh, I don't doubt that. But I'm likely not travelling extensively in the next year or so and I have all the chargers I need at the moment. My needs now are deskbound stuff and some faster ways to transfer media to storage. Based on what a whole bunch of reviewers are saying, and assuming most aren't full of it, it's going to be an interesting next few years.
