Tesla's super cute wireless smartphone charger is coming back
Still waiting for your Model 3 to arrive? Well, now you can soothe your desire for Tesla gadgets with something much more affordable: A wireless, Tesla-branded smartphone charger.
The gadget was introduced last month and quickly went out of stock, but The Verge noticed that the company is now informing customers that the charger will become available again.
Even better, the charger will now be available at a reduced price of $49 -- down from $65 -- and those who paid the higher price will get a $16 refund, plus local sales tax. Tesla claims that the price difference is due to the company producing higher quantities of the gadget, which lowers production costs.

The charger is available in black or white and comes with a USB-C cable and an additional USB-A port. It has a 6,000 mAh battery and a 5W wireless output. For the price (even the new, reduced one), you can get a charger with a lot more charging capacity, but that one wouldn't have a "Tesla" logo, would it?
The Tesla wireless charger still isn't available in the company's online store, and there's no word on when it will arrive there, so keep checking back.
