Think of the Hornet air horn more as a “power tool” like a cordless drill than a bike light or mobile phone. The power requirements are high and it is very difficult for a USB-C charging system to achieve this.

In addition, a USB-C charging port is not very rugged for this application, and could also get filled with dirt and debris resulting in charging issues.
