Tips on Using Dual USB Car Chargers

Vority Dual Car Charger

A dual USB car charger is great for recharging smartphones and other mobile devices while on the road. USB car chargers are plugged into the cigarette lighter outlet in your car. The USB car charger then draws power from your car’s battery. You can then charge your smartphone into the USB car charger’s USB sockets to recharge its battery. If your GPS unit or smartphone always seems to run out of batteries during a long car trip, then you might want to consider getting a USB car charger so that you can charge your GPS unit or smartphone in your car. A dual car charger is better than ordinary USB car chargers because it allows you to recharge two mobile devices at the same time. Follow these tips to improve the effectiveness of dual USB car chargers.

Remove your Device When Full

Unlike the smart charger that came with your Smartphone, a USB car charger does not detect that your smartphone’s battery is already fully-charged. As a result, the USB car charger will continue charging the battery and cause it to become overcharged. Overcharging reduces the lifespan of the battery, eventually causing it to lose the ability to hold a charge. To prevent overcharging, unplug your smartphone from the USB car charger once the battery is fully-charged.

Slow Down and Do Not Use your Device While Charging

Some USB car chargers are a bit loose and unplugs from the cigarette lighter outlet easily. Driving on a bumpy road and/or using your smartphone while it is plugged to the USB car charger can cause the charger to get unplugged from the cigarette lighter outlet. Plugging and unplugging a USB car charger repeatedly can damage both your charger and smartphone. To prevent accidental unplugs, try to drive slowly when driving on a bumpy road and do not use your device while it is charging especially if the USB cable is too short.
