Coiled USB-A to USB-C cable

This coiled cable connects a USB-A charger or port to any USB-C phone, tablet or car-play system. It stretches to roughly three feet and retracts to a tidy 1.2-to-2.5-foot working length, keeping the cabin or desk free of slack. The black polyurethane jacket resists tangling and springs back after each pull. Drivers and commuters who want a compact, self-managing charge lead will appreciate the neat coil.

Sustained 3-amp fast charging

The cable supports PD 3.0, QC 3.0 and QC 4.0 profiles up to three amps, so power delivery remains steady during long navigation sessions or while the phone runs CarPlay and Android Auto simultaneously. Data moves at 480 megabits per second, fast enough for music libraries and photo offloads without stalling. It is not a USB-C-to-USB-C cable, so a USB-A source is required for the rated output.

Thermals and power draw

The conductors stay cool during continuous three-amp loads because the gauge is sized for the rated current. No active cooling or fan is involved, so the cable adds zero acoustic noise to the vehicle interior. Power draw matches the attached device and charger; the cable itself introduces no measurable loss beyond normal resistance. Users needing USB-C source ports or higher wattage than three amps should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

Does the 3 ft coiled cable get warm or draw more power when left plugged into a car charger all day?

The cable is rated for up to 3A output and supports PD3.0, QC3.0 and QC4.0 fast charging; it carries only the current the connected charger and device negotiate, so heat and power draw depend on the charger used, not the cable itself.

What must I already own to use this USB A to USB C coiled cable for fast charging?

You need a USB A power source that supports fast charging — such as a PD3.0, QC3.0 or QC4.0 car charger or wall adapter — plus a USB C device that accepts up to 3A.

Will this coiled cable work reliably with an older car USB A port that only supplies 1A for CarPlay?

Yes, the cable handles data at 480Mbps and will carry whatever current the port provides; fast charging up to 3A simply will not activate on a 1A port.
