Wireless charger with USB outlet

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.

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.
