Memorial Day Deals Still Live: Twelve South Charging Devices Are Some of Our Favorites and They’re Up to $50 Off

Keep your trusty devices charged for less with these lingering Memorial Day discounts.

Most of us take our smartphones, earbuds and other devices for granted until they start running out of juice. But there are many handy products out there that can help us keep our treasured tech powered so we can get through the day. If you didn’t get the chance to shop during this long holiday weekend, there are quite a few Memorial Day deals still available on some of these convenient gadgets. Twelve South still has a few items left for up to $50 off right now, and Amazon is still offering discounts on the brand’s products as well.

The Twelve South 2-in-1 ButterFly SE charger is a budget-friendly alternative to its ButterFly 2-in-1 charger that works with iPhones and Apple Watches. It’s marked down to $70 and saves you $30.

Twelve South also makes MagSafe chargers capable of charging even more devices, such as the HiRise 3 Deluxe, which is now only $100, a $20 discount. This MagSafe charger is perfect for ensuring your phone, smartwatch and earbuds can all be powered at once.

Finally, the PlugBug with FindMy is the perfect USB-C charger for anyone who wants a traditional charging block that can be easily tracked. The 120-watt version is now just $90, down from its usual price of $120. We suggest looking through the entire set of deals available at Twelve South and Amazon, as selection might vary.

If you’re in need of a charging device but aren’t sure if these deals are for you, check out our list of Memorial Day deals under $25, which features dozens of standout deals.

Why this deal matters
