Wicaya
Grounded By Design
Wicaya: earthing from the design stage.
Our charger combines ultra-fast charging with built-in earthing to reduce the electric field around your devices.

The performance of a GaN charger, plus earthing.
Your charger has no earth. And you cannot see it.
Almost all chargers have only two pins: live and neutral. Without the third, earth, your devices are connected to nothing while they charge. An electric field at 50 Hz builds up around the cable and the device. You cannot see it, but your hands rest in it for hours.
The field: electrosmog.
Electrosmog is the name given to the electric field that the mains creates around plugged-in cables and devices. Here it oscillates at 50 Hz, the frequency of the current from the socket. Without an earth, it remains around your devices while they charge.
The noise: audio interference.
That background buzz in your headphones or speakers, which some people call “hum”, is a 50 Hz drone. It often comes from an unearthed charger.
The sensation: static electricity.
The slight static discharge you may feel when you touch a metal casing comes from static electricity, also known as ESD. Without an earth, it has no path to drain away.
The detail that makes the difference: the earth contact.
The Wicaya charger connects your devices to the earth of your electrical installation, through the USB cable. The 50 Hz electric field and static electricity drain to earth instead of remaining on your devices. In every other respect, it is a high-end GaN charger. Powerful, compact, uncompromising.
Earthed copper shielding
Inside, earthed copper plates enclose the electronics. The charger itself is shielded.
- 2-pole + earth plug
- Earthed copper shielding
- GaN technology (gallium nitride)
- 65 W or 45 W
- USB-C PD and PPS · QC on USB-A
Understanding intelligent charging
Fast first. Then gentler.
Gallium nitride makes a powerful charger possible in a compact format. USB-C Power Delivery (and PPS) adjusts the voltage and current to what each device requests. Charging is fast up to around 80%, then gentler up to 100%, alongside the charge management of your phone or computer.
Gallium nitride.
The power of a 65 W or a 45 W model, in the same compact format.
10 built-in protections.
Overvoltage, undervoltage, overcurrent, overpower, short circuit, static electricity (ESD), temperature, anti-interference, lightning-related overvoltage, electrosmog protection (earthing).
Flame-retardant polycarbonate.
A smooth, white casing that resists fire.
12,000 hours plugged in.
Our internal test: more than 12,000 hours plugged in continuously, without excessive heat build-up.
What the Wicaya charger changes.
10 advantages. Scroll through them.
- 01
Ultra-fast charging
Up to 65 W in total thanks to gallium nitride (GaN): a laptop and a smartphone both charge quickly.
- 02
Intelligent charging
The Wicaya charger gives each device the power it requests, and no more. USB-C Power Delivery and PPS on the USB-C ports, Quick Charge (QC) on USB-A. Fast up to around 80%, then gentler.
- 03
Genuine earthing
Patent application published under no. FR3172399. The Wicaya charger connects your devices to the earth of your socket: the 50 Hz electric field and static electricity drain to earth.
- 04
The first wall charger with built-in earthing
Conventional chargers, even premium ones, have no earth. The Wicaya charger was designed around it, by the engineering consultancy Chrysaliide Solutions.
- 05
Less static electricity
Less static electricity (ESD) when you touch a metal casing: it drains to earth.
- 06
Less audio interference
Less “hum”, the 50 Hz drone sometimes heard in headphones or speakers plugged in near a device that is charging.
- 07
Compact and cooler
GaN runs cooler than conventional components: more power in a small format.
- 08
3 devices at once
2 USB-C ports and 1 USB-A port: computer, phone and earphones on a single charger.
- 09
Shielded 1.5 m cable included
A shielded USB-C to USB-C cable, so the earth connection reaches your device.
- 10
10 protections
Overvoltage, undervoltage, overcurrent, overpower, short circuit, static electricity (ESD), temperature, anti-interference, lightning-related overvoltage, and electrosmog protection (earthing).
Before. After.
Conventional charger
2-pin plug, unearthed
- Your devices are connected to nothing while they charge.
- A high electric field around the device and the cable.
- Possible static electricity when you touch a metal casing.
- Possible audio interference (50 Hz drone) in headphones.
Wicaya charger
2-pin + earth plug
- Your devices are connected to the earth of your socket.
- The electric field is greatly reduced.
- Less static electricity.
- Less audio interference.
Earthing only works on a socket (or a trailing socket) that is properly earthed.
Don’t take our word for it. Measure it.
Hold a voltage tester near your current charger: it beeps and lights up. Hold it near a Wicaya charger plugged into an earthed socket: it stays silent and dark. Five seconds is enough to see the point.
With your conventional charger
- Plug in your device with your usual charger.
- Switch on the non-contact voltage tester.
- Hold the tester near your device, with or without sensitivity mode.
- The tester beeps and lights up: an electric field is present.
Replace it with the Wicaya charger
- Plug in the same device with the Wicaya charger, in an earthed socket.
- Switch on the non-contact voltage tester.
- Hold it in the same place, with the same settings.
- No sound, no light: the electric field drains to earth.
Pack Sérénité: the charger + the proof
Wicaya charger + W-PM8910 non-contact voltage tester. See the difference for yourself.
A real test, filmed with a non-contact voltage tester.
Worth knowing: the tester is not only for the charger or the cable. In sensitivity mode (the “S” button), it also picks up the electric field in your surroundings: around a desk, a sofa or a bedside table.
Tested by users who measured the difference at home.
They plugged it in.
★★★★★« Bonjour,
Très bon produits, de bonne qualité finition impeccable, détecteur comme le chargeur excellent, d'un coup, j'en ai un au boulot et un à la maison. Après utilisation, chargement rapide avec deux téléphones branchés et des écouteurs en même temps. Test du détecteur sur un chargeur avec et sans prise de terre. Résultat hallucinant. Très bon produit je recommande à toutes personnes pour éviter les EMF sur le corps humain. Good job la team... »

Measured and validated by experts.
The field measurements came before the brand. Validation by EMC professionals followed. We do not promise a universal zero, even if, with some instruments, the reading falls to a value close to 0 V/m, depending on the installation and the measuring device. We simply publish the reality of our measurements.
Born from a measurement, not a marketing plan.
It all starts at a desk, in front of a brand-new, high-end computer. A measurement is taken: more than 300 V/m on the casing. The cause? A 2-pole charger with no earth. No credible alternative existed on the market. So Chrysaliide Solutions, an electromagnetic environment diagnostic consultancy, designed one.
“Tomorrow, every charger will be designed this way. It is common sense.”— K. Moghrani, Designer

Frequently asked questions.
Do I need an earthed socket?
Yes, for the earthing to work. The Wicaya charger does not create an earth: it uses the one in your building, on a socket or trailing socket that is earthed. On a socket with no earth, it charges normally, like a good GaN charger, but without the earthing.
Is it a Wi-Fi or 5G filter?
No. The Wicaya charger acts on the low-frequency electric field (50 Hz, that of the current from the socket) and on static electricity. Wi-Fi, 4G/5G and Bluetooth are radio waves, of a different kind: it does not block them, and it does not block magnetic fields either.
Is the charger safe for my devices?
Yes. It is CE and RoHS compliant and includes 10 protections in a flame-retardant casing. Thanks to USB-C Power Delivery, it gives each device the power it requests, and no more. Our internal test: more than 12,000 hours plugged in continuously, without excessive heat build-up.
