CIO Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Moriguchi City, Osaka; Representative Director and President: Shota Nakahashi) will launch its ultra-thin chargers, "NovaPort SLIM DUO II 65W" and "NovaPort SLIM DUO II 45W," featuring a 180° rotating plug, on the crowdfunding service "Makuake" starting Tuesday, March 31, 2026.

While maintaining the portability of a slim charger, this product is a USB charger that enhances adaptability to power outlet environments where conventional 90° plugs were difficult to use. By redesigning the plug position, a structure that allows the plug to open and close 180° from the edge of the main unit has been achieved. This makes it easier to use in low-position outlets, against walls, and in limited spaces, making the charging experience more comfortable on the go. Furthermore, it is equipped with two USB-C ports; the 65W model features a high-output design compatible with laptops, while the 45W model is lighter and more compact for enhanced ease of use. It also incorporates "NovaIntelligence," which optimally distributes power according to the connected device, and "NovaSafety2.0," a safety protection function, achieving a high-level balance of thinness, ease of use, and charging performance.

Product Features

180° Rotating Plug: Just +90° Expands Usable Locations

The plug, located at the edge of the main unit, features a unique structure that rotates 180°. This makes it easier to plug into low-position outlets, against walls, and around furniture where conventional 90° plugs often interfered, allowing comfortable use in previously inconvenient locations. It's not just a gimmick, but a design aimed at expanding the range of usable places.

Ultra-Slim Design: Balancing Portability and Ease of Use On-the-Go

The 65W model achieves an ultra-slim design with a thickness of approximately 12.3mm. It fits easily into bags and pouches, reducing bulk when carried. Furthermore, its flat shape, which sits flush against walls, makes it stable and easy to use in limited spaces such as hotels, cafes, Shinkansen trains, and buses.

Equipped with 2 USB-C Ports, Supporting a Wide Range of Devices with Max 65W/45W Output

Equipped with two USB-C ports, the 65W model supports charging a wide range of devices, including laptops. The 45W model also provides sufficient output for daily use, such as simultaneous charging of two smartphones or a laptop and peripherals. CIO's proprietary control technology "NovaIntelligence" automatically distributes optimal power according to the connected device, allowing comfortable use regardless of the port.

Commitment to Safety and Quality Texture

Equipped with the "NovaSafety2.0" safety protection function, it constantly monitors temperature and automatically controls heat generation, supporting stable power supply. In addition, the surface features a scratch-resistant textured finish, and the port area is accented with CIO purple. The design is finished with a high-quality feel that makes you want to carry it every day.
