UGREEN CD213 60980 42.5 W USB-C + USB-A Car Charger

Overview

The UGREEN CD213 (60980) is a small car charger that sits almost flush with the accessory socket, with one USB-C and one USB-A port. It fast charges two phones at once from a 12 V car or 24 V truck socket, which suits daily commuting, cab or delivery shifts and long drives.

Is it right for you?

• Suits two phones, or a phone and a tablet: the USB-C port gives 20 W with Power Delivery (PD) and Programmable Power Supply (PPS), the USB-A port up to 18 W with Quick Charge (QC) 3.0 or 22.5 W with Huawei SCP.
• Not for laptops: 20 W on USB-C is too low to charge one.
• Fits cars, SUVs and trucks with a standard 12 to 24 V DC accessory socket.
• Choose it when you want the charger to disappear into the socket; the near-flush space grey aluminium body is the point of this model.

Key features

• 20 W USB-C PD with PPS, so iPhone 12 and later, Samsung Galaxy phones and iPads fast charge.
• USB-A port with up to 18 W QC 3.0 or 22.5 W Huawei SCP for Android phones that use those modes.
• 42.5 W in total with both ports in use, so neither device waits for the other.
• Status LED so you can find the ports at night.
• Aluminium alloy body that helps shed heat, with built-in protections.
• 12 to 24 V DC input, so one charger serves a car and a truck.
• An iPhone 12 reaches about 58% in 30 minutes on the USB-C port (approximate figure).

What else you need

• A 12 V or 24 V vehicle accessory socket.
• Your own USB-C and USB-A charging cables; charging cables are not included.

Installation

Push the charger into the vehicle’s accessory socket until it seats. There is nothing to wire, configure or pair.

Before you buy

• Charging cables are not included.
• The USB-C port is 20 W: fine for phones and tablets, too low for laptops.
• The USB-A rate depends on the phone’s protocol: up to 18 W with QC 3.0, up to 22.5 W with Huawei SCP, and any standard rate for accessories.
