Quick Take

The Air 65W is the easy choice: it is the same size and only 0.32 ounce heavier, so there is little reason to give up 25W of output.

EPICKA Air 65W and Air 40W universal travel adapters side by side — The Air 65W and Air 40W use the same slim chassis and port layout.

The EPICKA Air 65W is the one to buy for laptop travel. It is the same size as the Air 40W, has the same ports, and weighs only 0.32 ounce more—but provides 25W more USB-C power.

What Is Different?

Both measure 3.15 × 1.97 × 1.19 inches and include three USB-C ports, one USB-A port, and one AC outlet. The Air 65W weighs about 5.26 ounces (149g), versus 4.94 ounces (140g) for the Air 40W.

The main difference is output: 65W versus 40W from the primary USB-C port. When several USB ports are in use, that power is shared.

Which Should You Buy?

Buy the Air 65W. It has no size penalty, weighs only 0.32 ounce (9g) more, and provides substantially more charging headroom. The difference is too small to justify choosing the Air 40W.

Both include built-in US, European, UK, and Australian/Chinese plugs, but neither supports Type D or Type M sockets. Neither converts voltage, so anything connected to the AC outlet must support the local voltage.
