Has anyone seen a wireless charger that also has a USB outlet port?
The objective is to wirelessly charge a phone overnight, but at some bedtimes/lazy mornings I want to use my device when it's low on battery so require a cable.
Current solution: don't bother with wireless. Another solution - use a dual outlet charger (or two chargers), one cable to the pad and a spare.
The reason I can't find one is probably because manufacturers need to deal with power requirements if a user tries to use pad and outlet at the same time, or has to turn one outlet off if the other is in use.

I have this table lamp with both a wireless charger and USB plug built in. Had it for a few years and it works great.

Thanks - I'm looking for a pad with no other features other than the USB output, but this does have that outlet.

Nice, thanks! That's the sort of thing, especially the second one that has USB-C out as well. Neat.

By usb you mean USB-A? What kind of crazy phone are you using? Most Qi chargers run off a usb c cable specifically so you can just unplug the charger and plug in your phone. Perhaps you can explain in more detail what you are looking for as this is how I understood your question but it doesn't make sense.

If the recall IKEA had something like that. Mine is a really old model so I don't know if the same thing is sold today.
