The Homeylabs team doesn't seem to be active on social media. No twitter account as far as I can tell and no new posts on Facebook or Instagram since 2017. Their shopping page still seems to be functional (through Shopify), though I haven't tested it myself yet. EDIT: As @samrye_enspiral mentions below, read the reviews before buying. There seems to be a lot of negative reviews of the product itself. Looks like this was originally a crowdfunded product and they stopped communication once the campaign was over. EDIT2: It doesn't look like there is a way to delete this product from the website, but is there any way to deal with products that are known to be cheap/bad? It seems somewhat irresponsible to leave it up. I don't imagine most people will read the comments.

Maybe worth reading these reviews before purchase: https://www.instagram.com/homeyl...

@samrye_enspiral I can't believe they're still selling this thing - I've seen nothing but bad reviews from the get go. I ordered one during the kickstarter campaign and I'm afraid to use it since there have been multiple reports of it shorting out the users electronics. Stay away!

$129? The f? I'll just wait for the copycats

Would be awesome to have a charger, usb hub and a powerbank in one.

Looks awesome but price point is too high for my taste.

Awesome idea! 👏

Im using one as we speak, unfortunately I cant recommend it. While it has always worked fine as a macbook charger the USB ports are all dead. Reasonably I probably shouldnt use it, but it does work and I paid a lot for it, so I use it as a travel charger anyway.

I crowdfunded but it was never delivered, total scam

Pros:

Cons:

Never got the product
