Stouchi USB C Extension Cable for MagSafe Charger (2M/6.6ft) – White
Product description
What it is and what it solves
The Stouchi USB C Extension Cable is a dedicated extension for MagSafe charging setups, designed to let you place your MagSafe charger where you want it—whether that’s the living room, bedside, or the sofa. It aims to reduce reach limitations and minimise plugging wear on the MagSafe connection by providing a longer, sturdy link between the charger and your device.
How it performs on paper
This cable is specified to support 9V 3A for MagSafe wireless charging, which matches the fast-charging expectations for compatible iPhone models. It also supports data transfer up to 480Mbps via USB 2.0, making it a practical extension for routine data tasks alongside charging. The length is 2M (6.6ft), which offers considerable reach without becoming unwieldy, and the outer jacket uses a durable PVC to help resist wear from regular plugging and unplugging.
What stands out in use
On the practical side, the extension helps keep the MagSafe charger connected in arrangements where a direct cable would be awkward or visible cluttered. The white colour is designed to align with MagSafe aesthetics for a cohesive setup. A notable advantage is the reduction in repeatedly forcing the MagSafe connector in narrower spaces, which can wear connectors over time.
Limitations and caveats
If you prioritise maximum data throughput beyond USB 2.0 speeds, this cable may not meet those higher-rate needs. The 480Mbps figure reflects USB 2.0 capabilities, which is fine for basic syncing and transfers but not for advanced high-speed regimes. Also, the product is specifically described for MagSafe charging, it’s not advertised as a general-purpose USB-C extension for all devices. If your setup relies on higher voltage or faster charging standards, you may want to review compatibility with your exact charger and device model.
Who it’s for
- If you use MagSafe charging and want more flexibility in where you place the charger, this 2M extension can reduce everyday fuss.
- If you value a clean, matching white aesthetic for your charging area, the design aligns with MagSafe accessories.
- If you’re aiming to protect the MagSafe port from repeated plugging in tight spaces and you don’t require extremely high data transfer rates.
Who it isn’t the best option for
- If you need USB-C extensions that support significantly faster data transfer or power delivery beyond 9V 3A, this extension may not be ideal.
- If you’re not using MagSafe or you require a general-purpose USB-C extension for other devices, there are other cables better suited to those tasks.
When it makes sense to buy
Consider this extension when you want a simple, purpose-built 2M link for MagSafe charging in living areas where outlets and chargers are a bit awkward to reach. It can reduce wear on the MagSafe connector and offer more flexible placement without swapping to a different charger.
What to check before you buy
- Confirm your MagSafe charger’s own specifications align with 9V 3A support.
- Ensure the 2M length suits your typical charging distance without excessive slack.
- Check that you’re happy with USB 2.0 data speed (480Mbps) for your needs.
Practical use example
Imagine charging your iPhone 15 from a bedside power point while you’re relaxing in bed. The Stouchi extension lets you park the charger on the nightstand or shelf, reducing the need to bend or reach before bed and keeping the charging area tidy.
In-the-box and build note
You’ll receive 1× Stouchi USB C extension cable in white. The specification highlights two key benefits: compatibility with MagSafe charging and a durable build designed for daily use.

Is it worth it?
Worth considering if you want a longer, dedicated MagSafe extension to improve reach and reduce plug-in wear, provided you’re comfortable with USB 2.0 speeds and the 9V 3A charging capability. If your setup demands higher data rates or broader USB-C compatibility, you may want to explore alternatives.
