Compact 30W GaN wall charger

The Anker 511 Nano 3 delivers 30W of power in a purple housing that measures 1.12 inches thick. Gallium Nitride construction makes it 70% smaller than an original 30W charger. It targets users who want one tiny brick for earbuds, phone, tablet and even a MacBook Air. Foldable prongs keep the profile slim in a bag or outlet.

Replaces bulky 5W or 25W adapters

Swapping an old 5W charger cuts iPhone 13 charge time to 50% by up to three times, reaching 100% in 1.6 hours. The 30W output also adds Samsung Super Fast Charging at 25W and powers an iPad Air (5th Generation) to 50% in 45 minutes. Buyers whose laptop demands more than 30W or who need multiple simultaneous ports should look elsewhere.

Plug in and go with ActiveShield 2.0

No drivers or configuration are required; the foldable prongs flip out and the USB-C port accepts any compatible cable. ActiveShield 2.0 monitors temperature over three million times per day, double the rate of the previous version, to prevent overheating. The only common snag is forgetting that a cable is not included in the box.

Questions about this item

How thick is the Anker 511 Nano 3 30W GaN Charger, and will it block adjacent outlets on a standard power strip?

The charger is 1.12 inches thick and 70% smaller than an original 30W charger, so it usually leaves neighbouring sockets free on standard strips.

Does the foldable plug on the Anker 511 Nano 3 require any special orientation or force to seat correctly in a wall outlet?

Fold the prongs out until they click into the locked position, then insert straight into the outlet; forcing them before the click can bend the hinge.

How often does the ActiveShield 2.0 system check temperature, and does that affect the charger's lifespan?

ActiveShield 2.0 monitors temperature over 3 million times per day, protecting internal components and helping the charger last through its 24-month warranty period.
