Overpriced charger

I was excited when I saw this charger because I could charge both my iPhone 6 plus and my Apple Watch.
It does charge both at the same time but it's much slower. I think when charging both the watch and iPhone, it takes an extra 1 1/2 hour. So far that hasn't been a problem since I charge my devices when going to sleep but during the daytime I use the regular iPhone charger.
I feel like I expected a lot more for the price. Also erasing the watch cable can be a pain sometimes.

The Nomad makes a great bedside charger as well as a very convenient travel charger for my iWatch and my iPhone. The included battery was a live saver when my electric went out too!

Nomad - Pod Pro Portable Charger

I set up my Nomad Pod Pro Charger last week. Inserting the USB end of the Smart Phone charger is a little difficult. After setting up this unit, I found that it sporadically charged both my Smart Phone and Smart Watch.
Just today I exchanged it for a second unit hoping for better results.

Instructions should be included.

Instructions were not included which has caused frustration. It may seem like a simple enough device, but several times I have placed my watch on the charger to charge at night only to have it depleted the next morning. This occurred even after pressing the "on" button. I have looked online since receiving as a gift and overall the product gets good reviews, but I still have yet to find instructions or troubleshooting information.

...but I had to wind and adjust the cord every time I wanted to charge my iwatch because the charge magnet would move around and not make a secure connection to the back. If I'm spending $100 on a great concept, I should not be working so hard to make it work.

I have had to take it apart and rewind the cord for the watch several times. Doesn't seem to always connect to charge. The cord for the phone is also a little to short. For the money could be better

Functions with some problems

This item does work but there are a few gotchas. First you must turn on the charger after placing your watch on it or it will not charge. That was an oops first time we discovered this. Second is that when the charging cable (not included) is inserted in the unit, the kid will no longer close flush with the magnets on the unit leaving it loose and wobbly and prone to falling off. This could be fixed by digging a bigger groove out with a Dremel but why didn't the manufacturer test this or care? If this would set flush it would possibly be worth the bulk but otherwise just wind a cable around a charging brick that is less expensive.

I have been very impressed with this charger. I have used it multiple times to charge both my Apple Watch and iPhone (at the same time) and have not had any issues with it. Recharges to full capacity quickly and stores enough energy to get multiple recharges out of it. Highly recommend this.
