There's a few portable, USB-C powered grinders coming to market this year. The Varia Hybrid, Staresso's new model, and a few others.
But they all have the same problem: the motors used in the rechargeable "bricks" each grinder have are
a) underpowered
b) low wattage output (40W or less)
c) extremely slow RPMs (like half of hand grinding crank speed.
Until these motorized units can actually speed up the grinding action, they are a weak novelty.
Check out AB's video on the Varia Hybrid. The time it took to grind is redonkulous.
