La wireless charging It has become a fairly common functionality, so much so that the vast majority of devices focused on the mobile environment, including headphones and speakers, already have compatibility with Qi wireless charging standards, therefore, these chargers are becoming a necessity every time. bigger and more usual.
We tested the Fresh'n Rebel Base Duo, a versatile charging base with an attractive design that will surprise you with its capabilities. Discover with us this new wireless charging base in which you will fit a good handful of devices so you never run out of battery.
Materials and design
What first surprises us after taking it out of the box is that it has a padded upper part fully covered in nylon fabric. We will be able to choose between the five usual colors in the brand: Blue, pink, white, green, black, blue and red, each with a more interesting commercial name. Base dimensions are 175 x 87 x 11mm and will feature a USB-C cable as well as a power adapter that will have exactly the same color as the chosen product, once again an interesting detail from Fresh'n Rebel in this regard.
The base has a plastic bottom and a series of non-slip pads that will allow us to avoid falls or undesirable movements. The base is large enough to house two normal-sized mobile devices, and plenty to, for example, charge our iPhone at the same time as we charge a pair of headphones. The included charger, meanwhile, has a standard size and a traditional USB-A port that we will talk about later. In short, Fresh'n Rebel has once again bet on a design and materials brand of the house.
Technical characteristics
First of all, we highlight the fact that if you purchase the Fresh'n Rebel Base Duo, they include, in addition to the USB-C cable of a length of 1,5 meters, you will also have a fully certified 30W power adapter. This charger will allow you to take full advantage of the wireless charging capabilities of the base and not lose power when we have two devices simultaneously in the charging process. We have in it certification of Qi standard V.1.2.4 and five charging coils in total, getting the power through its USB-C port.
It has a load sensing distance of less than 10mm, in addition to 2 LED indicators of charge status for each of the halves. Unsurprisingly, the base itself features foreign object protection (detection), overcurrent and overload protection, as well as most importantly, protection against overheating, something especially important in this type of large capacity bases, since the heat affects the batteries very negatively and can lead to a reduction in their longevity and even stop charging for safety. From the technical point of view, it seems that we do not lack practically anything in this Base Duo by Fresh'n Rebel.
Editor's experience and opinion
Perhaps the most interesting thing about this Fresh´n Rebel Base Duo it is precisely the fact that cIt has a 30W charger included completely "free", and if we take a look at the 69,99 euros it costs, it will be difficult to find a similar product on the market with a similar ratio of characteristics. I start by highlighting that the LED lights are quite dim and point straight down in order to avoid disturbing the user, making it a good companion on your bedside table.
In fact, we are so used to other things that when I found the charger in the box I was greatly surprised. Like the rest of Fresh´n Rebel products, it has the appropriate certifications, The use of good accessories for our devices is important when it comes to ensuring their performance and durability, and this Base Duo obviously has our approval.
