39W Dual-Port Car Charger

The Tripp Lite U280-C02-39W-1B delivers up to 39W total output from a single 12V DC outlet. It provides 27W via USB-C Power Delivery 3.0 and 12W via USB-A for simultaneous charging. Compatible devices include smartphones, tablets, laptops, Chromebooks and e-readers.

Upgrading from single-port chargers

Replacing a single-port adapter adds a second device slot without occupying another outlet. The jump is worth it when you regularly charge a phone and a notebook together on the road. It does not suit users who need more than two ports or higher per-port wattage for power-hungry laptops.

USB-C PD 3.0 and USB-A limits

The USB-C port negotiates 5V/3A or 9V/3A profiles up to 27W, while USB-A is fixed at 5V/2.4A. Thunderbolt 3 devices charge at USB-C PD rates only. Total output caps at 39W, so both ports share that ceiling when used together.
