CIO Co., Ltd. announces the Makuake project launch for the ultra-thin chargers "NovaPort SLIM DUO II 65W/45W", featuring a 180-degree opening plug to adapt to any outlet environment.
CIO Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Moriguchi City, Osaka; President: Shota Nakahashi) will launch the ultra-thin chargers "NovaPort SLIM DUO II 65W" and "NovaPort SLIM DUO II 45W", which adopt a 180° opening/closing plug, on the support purchase service "Makuake" starting Tuesday, March 31, 2026.
This product is a USB charger that enhances adaptability to outlet environments, which was difficult to use with conventional 90° plugs, while maintaining the portability of a thin charger. By reviewing the plug position, a structure that opens and closes 180° from the edge of the main body has been realized. It is easy to use even in low-position outlets, near walls, or in limited spaces, making the charging experience on the go more comfortable.
Furthermore, equipped with two USB-C ports, the 65W model has a high-output design that supports up to laptops, while the 45W model features specifications that enhance usability by being lighter and more compact. In addition, it is equipped with "NovaIntelligence", which performs optimal power distribution according to the connected device, and the safety protection function "NovaSafety 2.0", achieving a high-level balance of thinness, usability, and charging performance.
