What to look out for when choosing a car phone charger?

The most popular car charger type is the one plugged to the lighter socket. It comes in 3 variants:

• classic – the device has USB ports you can use to connect your mobile device with a cable,
• with an extra cable – there is a cable connected to one of the USB ports – it has extra charging connectors,
• inductive – a modern type of charger, which means you can charge your device without actually using a cable – it’s enough to put it on a special plate or insert into a holder connected to the charger.

But there are a few more aspects you should consider when choosing a car charger. You have to remember about proper parameters to be sure the device will live up to your expectations. 

Parameters to consider

While looking for a perfect car charger, you should consider:

• Amperage – this is directly related to how fast you will be able to charge your phone. This parameter depends on the charging capacity of the specific phone model and on the technical parameters of the charger.
• Number of outlets – a USB car charger can have one or more outlets. Models with more outlets are a perfect solution for those who need to recharge other devices, not just the phone.
• Cable length (in the case of chargers that need a cable) – you should be able to connect the phone and put it in a safe place in the car. What matters most is the distance from the lighter socket. A long cable means greater mobility and minimises the risk of damage.
• Safeguards – a good car charger has sufficient safeguards to prevent the breakdown or damage of the device. The most important safeguards include the protection against overvoltage, overload, against short-circuit and overheating.
• Additional functions – another important aspect is the functionality of your car charger. Some can have certain innovative solutions that will significantly improve the experience of using them, e.g. they charge your devices faster while you’re on the road. If you appreciate this option, go for a model with Quick Charge and Power Delivery technology.

In this case, it’s not so important to choose a specific charger brand. Contemporary chargers are made with advanced technology, which is a match for premium brand accessories. A compatible, all-purpose car charger can be used to recharge virtually any device. It’s a good idea to consider Green Cell chargers, which come with the Quick Charge 3.0 technology and the Power Delivery function. Apart from the standard USB port, the Green Cell 30W charger has an extra USB-C port, which means it can be connected to two devices at a time.
