If you work at a desk, chances are you use a desk lamp -- or could use one. This LED model features touch controls, five lighting modes, a USB port for charging other devices and, in its base, a 7.5-watt Qi charging pad. There's currently a $3-off coupon you can clip on the product page, and the previous version of the lamp sold for around $32 -- so the price of this should drop before long.

Mouse pads are still a thing? They are when they double as Qi charging pads. If you're going to keep your phone at arm's length anyway, why not get a two-fer? This particular pad can deliver 10-watt charging to phones that support it, but you'll have to BYO USB-C port. If your laptop has one, great, otherwise you'll need an AC adapter.
