Product description
This USB-C fast charger and 2 m Lightning cable set speeds up top-up times for recent iPhone and iPad models, offering quicker charging for devices used throughout a busy day, at home or on the move. According to the manufacturer, the 20W USB-C PD adapter can take compatible iPhones from 0% to around 50% in approximately 30 minutes, which is useful when you need a fast burst of power.
Key Points
The pack combines a compact 20W USB-C power adapter with a 2 m USB-C to Lightning cable that is MFi certified, ensuring compatibility with iPhone models that accept USB-C PD input. The longer cable gives more flexibility for charging from sockets that are not close to seating areas, and is handy for bedside use or when you want to use a device while it charges. Safety measures are built into the adapter to guard against overcurrent, overheating and overcharging, and charging stops when the battery reaches full capacity according to the manufacturer.

The MFi chip in the cable aims to allow both reliable charging and data syncing without device error messages. The adapter’s compact form factor makes it simple to carry in a small bag or a drawer, and the longer cable reduces the need to sit close to a power point while using a device.
Usage Recommendations
For the fastest charge, connect the USB-C plug to a compatible device that supports Power Delivery and use the cable without an adapter or hub between the charger and the device. Avoid exposing the adapter to extreme temperatures and unplug it if you see unusual heat during use. Consider that peak charging speed depends on device model and battery condition; older batteries may charge more slowly even with a 20W adapter.
