HyperX, the gaming peripherals team at HP Inc. and brand leader in gaming and esports, today announced the new ChargePlay Quad 2 Charging Station for Nintendo Switch. Designed specifically for the Nintendo Switch, the ChargePlay Quad 2 Joy-Con Charging Station offers improved charging time, making it an ideal choice for charging Joy-Cons.

I......must be missing something here.

There already exist docks that can charge 4 joycons in less then 4 hours. In fact I cant think of any that take longer. and there already exist bases that can charge more then 4, plus pro controllers.
