Aukey’s new wireless charger gives you more freedom through the power of the orbs
Aukey has announced a new modular charging solution called the MagFusion Ark. It combines a base station featuring up to three Qi2.2 charging pads with spherical power banks that each have their own Qi2.2-compatible pads. The spheres support passthrough charging and can wirelessly charge another device while they’re on the base station, but they can also be removed and used as standalone wireless chargers powered by either their 6,700mAh battery or a USB-C port.
Pricing will be announced closer to the MagFusion Ark’s release in Q1 of 2026, but it will be available in three different configurations: a bundle that includes a base with three pads and three spheres, as well as one- and two-pad bases with the spheres sold separately. The Ark is entirely Qi2.2-compatible, and both the base and spheres will wirelessly charge Qi2.2 devices at rates up to 25W.
On battery power alone, the number of times that the spheres can be used to fully recharge a device like a smartphone will depend on the capacity and health of that device’s own battery. But given the battery in the spheres is also used to power a cooling fan, you can probably expect to get at least one full smartphone charge out of them, or a handful of top-ups.
Each sphere also features a 30W USB-C port. You can use it to maximize the sphere’s battery capacity by sidestepping the inefficiencies of wireless charging, charge devices that aren’t Qi2-compatible, or even keep the sphere plugged in to use as a charging stand. You can also charge two devices simultaneously from each sphere — one from the USB-C port and one from the Qi2 pad— but wireless charging rates drop to 15W while the USB-C port’s output drops to 20W.
Although Aukey says the MagFusion Ark offers a “total of six charging points,” you’ll only be able to wirelessly charge three devices at a time on the base station, excluding the spheres. When the spheres are each being used independently to charge other devices, that then frees up the pads on the base for other devices. That’s a bit limiting given the relatively large footprint of the Ark’s base, but the added flexibility of being able to grab one of the spherical chargers and use it anywhere in your home could be worth the tradeoff.
