   One charger to rule them all 🔌

   Only 100 days until the #commoncharger rules come into effect!

   From 28 December, all new handheld electronic devices sold in the EU will be required to use a USB-C charger.

   It means:
   🔌 One charger for all your devices, no matter the brand 🤖🍎
   ⚡ Harmonised fast charging technology
   ♻️ Reduced e-waste

     @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu What will happen when USB-C falls obsolete in favor of something better? :neocat_googly_woozy_legs_right:

     @EUCommission Okay, is there a standard regarding wattage, etc. or is it just "fuck around and find out"?

     "Okay, anything else?"
