This is what you are looking for, it has been used 160 times: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Ddevice_charging_station
Although, I'd probably just unify this with amenity=charging_station and always specify the socket type and voltage. You should only navigate to a charging station that has a compatible socket anyway. I usually mark the available sockets using power_supply=* on cafes and pubs where I can charge my computer or phone without guilt. It can be useful for both mapping parties and drone photography.
