FAQs

Can I charge two tablets at once?

Yes, but be aware the 2.1 amp output is shared between the two ports, so charging speeds may be reduced if both devices are power-intensive.

Does this charger include a USB cable?

No, you must provide your own USB cable compatible with your specific device.

Will this work in any car?

It is compatible with all vehicles featuring a standard 12V cigarette lighter port.

What safety protections are built in?

The charger includes safeguards against over-charging, overheating, and short circuits.

Can I leave the charger plugged in when the car is off?

While most car sockets cut power when the ignition is off, it is good practice to remove the charger if your socket remains live to prevent battery drain.

Troubleshooting

Device is not charging

Ensure the charger is pushed firmly into the cigarette lighter socket and check if your charging cable is fully functional.

Charger feels hot to the touch

Unplug the device immediately and allow it to cool down; ensure your devices are not drawing more power than the charger is rated for.

Charging is slow

Verify that your cable supports fast charging and try using a different port on the device to see if performance improves.
