Twelve South Condenses Leather Wireless Valet, Boosting Output to 25 Watts
The newly released Valet charging tray from Twelve South reduces its physical footprint while increasing power delivery. This updated leather-bound model trades a dual-item surface for a compact design and 25W wireless speeds.
Technical Upgrades and Dimensions
Twelve South has revised its leather-wrapped Valet charging tray, prioritizing space efficiency and charging velocity. Debuting as a follow-up to the unit showcased at CES earlier this year, the latest version slashes the depth of the accessory from 7.5 inches down to 4.5 inches. This adjustment narrows the device's utility from a wide-ranging catchall for multiple personal items to a specialized tray for essential single objects, such as a pair of spectacles.
Enhanced Power Performance
Despite the reduction in physical scale, the internal hardware sees a performance increase. Twelve South upgraded the wireless charging capability compared to its predecessor, shifting the power ceiling from 15W to 25W. This allows for faster energy delivery to compatible devices even as the tray occupies less desk or nightstand real estate. The shift in dimensions reflects a strategic move by Twelve South to cater to users operating in environments where space is restricted.
