Abstract

A device including a first receptacle for receiving a first electronic device, a second receptacle for receiving a second electronic device, a first switching charger for fast charging the first electronic device, and a second switching charger for fast charging the second electronic device. The device may determine that the first electronic device is communicatively coupled to the device within the first receptacle and that the second electronic device is communicatively coupled to the device within the second receptacle. The device may receive a first request from the first electronic device to fast charge the first electronic device via the first switching charger and charge the first electronic device via the first switching charger. Additionally, the device may receive a second request from the second electronic device to fast charge the second electronic device via the second switching charger and charge the second electronic device via the second switching charger.
