15W wireless charging is the newer standard so 7.5W is a bit slow now.

Im currently using this. It doesn't charge full, takes plenty of time to charge the battery itself. Good for backup considering the brand and Costco warranty.

Because you can use it to charge while it stays charged? Basically use it as a dock and "grab n go" when needed.

We have qi chargers at all bed sides and most desks for its convenience.

Imo the design of these are to stick to your phone (via magnets) while you're on the go. We got these a couple weeks ago specifically for our Samsung galaxy phones (s22 and s24 ultra). The magnet on these phones are not strong enough to keep these batteries on; it will fall off. To fix this, we bought a case w/ the magnet on them and it solves that issue.
There is one USB-c port used for both charging and recharging.

These exact battery packs were recently recalled for potential fire and explosions. Not saying that new versions are affected but just keep this is mind when using such portable chargers.

This is the 1618 model. Not the one that was recalled. Costco wouldn't be actively selling it if it was recalled. I have it from the last time it went on sale and just double checked.

Not exact. This is the 1618 model and your link does not list the 1618 model.

Appreciate your check-in..I agree wrt Costco. Their recalls usually happen weeks/months after they've been selling the items, they'd never knowingly sell a recalled item.

This, and a 6" USB cable from Amazon (to get better efficiency) is enough to charge most modern flagships to above 80%
I think it's easier having the battery clipped to the back of my phone than a 3-6ft cable dangling around

USB C port is bidirectional.
Meaning my phone will charge this battery if it is empty?

I've had these for months and I love them. Slim enough to keep in your pocket while charging. Love the kickstand. Perfect for traveling and keeping your battery topped off on the go. I also have larger ones, but this is my go to. I've carried around two, just in case, but never needed more than one to keep my phone ready for maps and pics. I might get a couple more. I paid $40 at Costco 4-6 months ago.

I believe this is only wireless charging with no other ports for output. Reviews were not great overall with a decent amount of heat generation.
It has a USB-C input and output.

I got these and they charge decently enough. Mostly for wireless charging at night with the pass through charging. If we fprget or for whatever reason our phones dont charge we can take them along in a pinch. They can also charge from the usb C port if wireless is too slow

Would bite if it was cheaper just for the one with the kickstand. 7.5w is pretty abysmal nowadays though.
