Three-pack car charging cables

This IOGEAR set includes three retractable USB-A to USB-C cables finished in blue. Each cable stretches from 1.3 ft to 3.3 ft and supports 3 A fast charging at 36 watts. The coiled design keeps the cabin tidy while reaching the passenger or rear seats. A built-in 56 kΩ resistor helps protect connected devices from over-current and overheating.

Plug-and-play with spring tension

Installation is as simple as inserting the USB-A plug into the vehicle port and the USB-C end into the phone or tablet. The spring mechanism retracts automatically, but over-extension past 3.3 ft can weaken the coil. Dust in the car socket may reduce contact reliability, so occasional cleaning is advisable. Data transfer runs at up to 480 Mb/s when the host supports it.

Drivers who want clutter-free fast charging

The three-cable pack suits households with multiple USB-C devices or drivers who keep a spare in each vehicle. Buyers needing longer fixed-length cables for rear-seat entertainment mounts should look elsewhere. Anyone requiring Power Delivery negotiation above 36 watts will not get that capability from these cords.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the cable is charging at the rated 3 A after I plug it in?

Your phone or tablet will show a fast-charging indicator and the battery percentage will rise noticeably faster than with a standard 1 A lead.

What comes in the 3-pack and do I need a separate car charger?

The box contains three blue retractable USB-A to USB-C cables, each stretching from 1.3 ft to 3.3 ft. A USB-A car charger is not included and must be purchased separately.

Which cable length should I choose for front-seat and back-seat use?

All three cables are identical at 3.3 ft fully extended; the retractable spring lets you pull only the length you need for the driver, co-pilot or rear passengers.
