FAQs
What is Power Delivery (PD) charging?
Power Delivery (PD) is a fast-charging technology that allows compatible devices to charge much faster by delivering higher power levels. This charger supports PD via its USB-C port.
Can I charge my laptop with this charger?
This charger provides 20W of power, which is generally suitable for smaller devices like smartphones and smartwatches. Most laptops require higher wattage (e.g., 45W, 65W, or more) and may charge very slowly or not at all.
Which port should I use for faster charging?
For devices that support Power Delivery (PD) fast charging, use the USB-C port. The USB-A port provides standard charging speeds.
Does this charger work with all USB devices?
It works with most devices that charge via USB-A or USB-C. However, the fast charging capabilities are dependent on the device supporting PD or Quick Charge technologies.
What does 'fixed European pins' mean?
This means the charger has built-in pins designed for European power outlets. It does not have a retractable or interchangeable plug system and will require an adapter for use in countries with different socket types.
How do I clean the charger?
Use a dry, soft cloth to wipe the exterior. Avoid using any liquids, cleaning agents, or solvents, as these could damage the charger.
Is this charger safe to use?
Yes, the charger is safety approved and meets the latest energy efficiency legislation (Level VI), ensuring reliable and safe operation.
Troubleshooting
Device is not charging
Ensure the charger is securely plugged into the wall socket. Verify the charging cable is correctly connected to both the charger and your device. Try a different charging cable or a different port (USB-C or USB-A) if available on your device. Confirm your device is compatible with the charger's output.
Charging is slow
Check if your device supports fast charging (PD). If not, it will charge at a standard speed. Ensure you are using the correct port for fast charging (USB-C for PD devices). Remove any case from your device if it seems to be interfering with the connection. Ensure no other high-power devices are drawing power from the same circuit.
Charger is warm during use
It is normal for the charger to become slightly warm during operation, especially when charging devices quickly. If it becomes excessively hot, unplug it immediately and allow it to cool down. Ensure the charger's ventilation is not blocked.
