NEW YORK, Jan. 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — As the new year unfolds, the leading charging solution brand TESSAN proudly announces an inspiring collaboration with the American singer-songwriter Rachael Yamagata. Together, they are embarking on a journey of innovation, encouraging people to discover and engage with the world around them.

Rachael Yamagata has made a significant impact on the global music scene with her soulful and emotionally resonant songs. Her music, characterized by its raw honesty and heartfelt lyrics, has garnered a dedicated international fanbase. Rachael has toured extensively and has a strong following. Her ability to connect deeply with audiences through her music has solidified her place as a beloved and influential artist on the global stage.

For Rachael, a journey represents the balance between planning future destinations and appreciating the present moment. It is a rich tapestry of life, interwoven with new encounters and personal growth. This vision aligns seamlessly with the “connection” concept of TESSAN’s mission, resulting in a strong partnership between TESSAN and Rachael.

Rachael’s experiences as an international traveler have shaped her perspective on the essentials needed for a seamless journey. She emphasizes the importance of efficient packing when traveling, particularly for tours. “You can only take so much because you go on trains, planes, you’re walking through cities, you’re getting cabs, you’re literally changing cities every day,” she shared.

One of Rachael’s main travel challenges is balancing the need to bring essential items without overpacking. TESSAN’s WTA series travel adapter emerges as an indispensable companion to address such challenges during modern travelers’ global exploration. As a user of the WTA series, Rachael finds the series highly appealing due to its excellent connectors, lightweight design, compact size, durability, fast charging capabilities, and ability to charge multiple devices simultaneously.

Weighing only 0.62lb and featuring a compact design, the WTA series fits easily into any luggage. Its classic slider design includes EU, UK, and US plugs, with rotatable pins for sockets in Australia and China, ensuring compatibility worldwide. GaN technology contributes to its lightweight nature and enables faster charging while maintaining a stable temperature, preventing overheating. The WTA series can simultaneously charge multiple devices, including iPhones, Macs, iPads, cameras, and CPAP machines. Built-in safety features, such as double-patented 10A auto-resetting fuses, provide peace of mind when using high-power devices.

As part of the collaboration, TESSAN conducted an exclusive interview with Rachael, capturing the entire process in a documentary. On January 4th, the documentary will premiere on YouTube, offering a glimpse into Rachael’s journey and insights. Through this exchange, TESSAN encourages audiences to ponder “What’s Your Next Journey,” inspiring them to embark on new explorations as a New Year’s resolution.

To support this initiative, TESSAN is launching a series of activities aimed at inspiring users to share the stories in their journeys. Including the sharing of the documentary trailer released on YouTube on January 1st allows participants to enter a prize draw. Then, on January 4th, the TESSAN website will showcase a limited time offer on the WTA series. The excitement will reach its peak on January 8th with a TikTok live event, featuring giveaways of prizes and Rachael Yamagata posters.

This collaboration between TESSAN and Rachael Yamagata is an invitation to explore, connect, and discover new horizons. As the new year begins, it calls for individuals to embark on their own journeys, starting from the comfort of home and reaching out to the world.
