As a road warrior often driving up to six or eight hours at a pop, I pride myself on being prepared for whatever I encounter. I don't like being out of touch. Electronics and cables are a big part of that because I need to communicate with others as well as record important details, or read or write for projects that aren't convenient or easy to view on a phone. Thus, the laptop, which has to have a laptop charger. Now I do. I don't have to concern myself with a laptop that's run out of battery power!
This car charger will be another valuable tool added to my collection of cables. The same charging block accomodates two separate Type C inputs, a beautiful and convenient thing. That means that I can charge two devices at once, which is something I do more often than not. I can also plug it into my car 3-way splitter which gives me an additional two or more devices that I can charge.
On the down side, I am not a fan of the rubbery cables, either PVC or TPE. They don't last near as long as nylon cables, but I've fixed that issue by swapping the cables that Coolgear provided for my tried and true nylon. They last much longer.
Another fine aspect of this cable is how long it is. Short cables can be frustrating. I suspect the cables are long enough to reach into the back seat, believe it or not. They are certainly long enough to still reach their respective plugs without bunching up. That's important when you are on a cross-country drive and need to stay organized.
Who wans to tell their grandchildren that they make device cables for a living? Hey, it may not be glamorous, but those responsible for making our lives better in these everyday things should take pride in a job well done. We appreciate your work more than you know. Thanks for the useful cable!
This cord actually charges like it would if I were plugged in at home.
Great product!
This charger solved that problem. Even with everything running, the tablet continues charging instead of slowly draining. That alone made it worth trying.
The advertised power output also seems legitimate. Plenty of chargers claim high wattage but don't deliver it under load. Based on my experience, I believe this one does. I wouldn't think twice about plugging my USB-C laptop into it.
The included cable is long enough to give you installation options, and the mounting flanges are a nice addition. I plan to hardwire mine to an accessory circuit and mount it in the dashboard for a cleaner, more permanent installation.
At around $70, it's definitely a premium-priced car charger. If all you need is a phone charger, there are plenty of less expensive options. But if you need enough power to keep a tablet or laptop charging while it's being actively used, this charger delivers exactly what it promises.
The dual USB-C ports provide plenty of power for newer devices. I've used it to charge my phone, tablet, and even my laptop, and it has handled everything without issue. The charger fits securely in the 12V outlet, and the overall build quality feels solid. I also like the mounting flanges, which would make it easy to permanently install in my 4Runner if I was so inclined.
My only real concern is that I couldn't find any indication that it carries a UL or ETL safety certification. Since this is a high-power charger capable of up to 145W, I generally prefer products that have been tested by an independent safety laboratory.
Overall, my experience has been positive, and it has been a great upgrade for adding high-power USB-C charging to an older vehicle.
