FAQs
What type of wall outlets does this charger work with in Europe?
This charger is designed for standard European wall outlets, typically Type C, E, or F, which are common across most of mainland Europe.
Can I charge my tablet and my phone at the same time?
No, this charger has a single USB-A port, so you can only charge one device at a time.
What does 'Smart IC' mean?
Smart IC (Integrated Circuit) technology automatically detects the connected device and delivers the most efficient charging current for that specific device, ensuring optimal charging speed and safety.
Is this charger compatible with non-European outlets?
No, this charger is designed specifically for European power outlets. For use in other regions (like the UK, US, or Asia), you would need a plug adapter or a charger designed for those regions.
How powerful is this charger?
The charger has a 12W output, which is equivalent to 2.4 Amperes at 5 Volts, providing a good charging speed for most smartphones and tablets.
Does this charger support fast charging technologies like USB Power Delivery (PD) or Qualcomm Quick Charge?
This charger provides a standard 12W (2.4A) output. While it charges devices efficiently, it does not explicitly support proprietary fast charging protocols like USB PD or Quick Charge beyond its maximum output capability.
Troubleshooting
Device not charging
Ensure the charger is securely plugged into the wall outlet. Verify the USB cable is properly connected to both the charger and your device. Try a different USB cable and ensure your device's charging port is clean. Confirm the wall outlet is functional by testing it with another appliance.
Slow charging speed
The charger outputs a maximum of 12W (2.4A). If your device supports faster charging protocols (like USB PD), it may charge slower than expected. Ensure no other high-power devices are being charged simultaneously if using a power strip. Check for any obstructions in the device's charging port.
Charger feels warm during use
It is normal for the charger to become slightly warm during operation, especially when charging a device at high power. However, if it becomes excessively hot to the touch, immediately disconnect it from the power source and discontinue use. Ensure it is not covered or in an enclosed space that restricts airflow.
