Nomad debuts new 240W USB-C ChargeKey tool to match your Cosmic Orange iPhone 17 Pro (Hands-on)

Nomad debuted its next-generation ChargeKey tool around this time last year, and today it is unleashing a new model in a Stellar Orange colorway to match your Cosmic iPhone 17 Pro. 

New Nomad ChargeKey in Cosmic Stellar Orange

The new limited edition Stellar Orange model is identical to the previous model, save for the vibrant new paint job. The ChargeKey is a handy little keychain accessory (also great for your EDC bag) that combines a premium metal and woven cable design with a pair of USB-C connectors – it is effectively a small keychain-ready accessory you can pull out to transfer data or power for charging from just about anything to anything else with a USB-C jack. 

The new Stellar Orange ChargeKey is now available for purchase at $29.

The standard gunmetal model carries the same $29 list price, but you can save 10% if you order two of them and Nomad does have open-box units available down at $20 right now. 

Elevate your look with Limited Edition Stellar Orange ChargeKey, color-matched to Apple’s Cosmic Orange iPhone for a perfectly coordinated pop of color. Designed with portability in mind, ChargeKey fits in the palm of your hand and barely adds any bulk to your keychain.

I came away quite impressed with this handy little gadget after getting to test it out myself when the new 240W model debuted last year, and the Stellar Orange delivers much the same. It is designed to specifically match your Cosmic Orange iPhone 17 Pro and, while I personally prefer the sort of gunmetal treatment on the standard model, those of you with a penchant for Apple orange might really appreciate the new electroplated zinc colorway here. 

This handy device can really come in handy when the last thing you need is a giant 5-foot USB-C cable for charging or quick data dumps while traveling or just out and about on a daily. It has come in handy for unloading images from iPhone on-the-go and for quickly grabbing some Logic Pro sessions files to take home with me too.

With USB-C on both ends, ChargeKey supports a wide range of charging and data transfer configurations at up to 240W & 10Gbps. Plug ChargeKey in and start charging or transferring right away.

Features at a glance:

  • Color-matched to Apple’s Cosmic Orange
  • Fast charges devices at up to 240W
  • Supports data transfer up to 10Gbps (USB 3.1)
  • Braided nylon cable
  • Electroplated zinc cable housings
  • Cable tips secure magnetically
  • USB-C to USB-C

Here are some real-world shots and my hands-on impressions of the original:
