Twelve South’s new wall plugs have Apple’s Find My functionality built in


It’s basically a charger and AirTag in one.

Your own travel readiness (and likeliness) seems like a bit of a prerequisite for these chargers to make much sense because if your bigger wall plugs never leave the house, it’s doubtful you need to track their location. But if you’re a jet-setter or everyday commuter, one of the PlugBugs could present a nifty way to keep track of your belongings on your way to the office since it’s going to act as your bag’s location tracker until you reach your destination and take it out to charge something. I can’t say one of these chargers seemed that alluring to me until I thought about that exact use case (for the very rare times I go to the office), but let’s not forget that slipping an AirTag into a hidden pocket of your bag may be just as reliable, and one of those costs just $25 or so.
